Recipe update!

I have not made either of these...but they both sound yummy!!


Chicken Tacos

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Frozen Boneless Chicken Strips Or Breasts
  • 1 can Rotel Diced Tomatoes (10 Ounce Can)
  • 1 package Taco Seasoning (1 Ounce Package)

Preparation Instructions

Put frozen chicken in the crockpot and dump in the Rotel and taco seasoning. Cook on low with the lid on for 8+ hours until the chicken is done. Stir with a fork to shred up the chicken and enjoy!!




Healthy Baked Lasagna

  • 1-½ pound Hot Italian Turkey Sausage
  • 1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 clove Garlic, Minced
  • 2 Tablespoons Parsley Flakes
  • 1 Tablespoon Basil
  • 2 teaspoons Salt, Optional
  • 1 can (28 Oz. Can) Hunt's Tomatoes
  • 6 ounces, weight Tomato Paste
  • 10 ounces, weight Stone Ground Whole Wheat Lasagna Noodles
  • 2 whole Eggs Beaten
  • ½ cups Parmesan Cheese
  • 24 ounces, weight Fat Free Large Curd Cream Style Cottage Cheese
  • 1 pound Mozzarella Cheese Sliced Thin (lower Fat If You Can Find It)

Preparation Instructions

1) Brown meat in oil and add the next 6 ingredients (garlic, 1 tablespoon parsley, basil, salt, canned tomatoes and tomato paste). Simmer uncovered until thick, about 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

2) Bring water to a boil; cook noodles. Drain and rinse in cold water (I usually lay them out on a paper towel and then wipe them down to catch any excess water).

3) Meanwhile, combine cottage cheese, remaining 1 tablespoon of parsley, eggs, and Parmesan in a separate bowl. Refrigerate until meat mixture is done.

4) When meat mixture is finished, add the first layer of noodles to a 9×13 pan. Spread half of the cottage cheese mixture onto the noodles, followed by half of the mozzarella slices and top with half of the meat mixture. Repeat (two layers total).

5) Bake for 50 minutes at 350 degrees. Check for doneness at 45 minutes.

Have a GREAT week!
