I have nutrition on my brain tonight as I feel loaded down after consuming bbq ribs (and some fries that Birch forced on me). I vow to eat better tomorrow! Perhaps I might cook this "skinny" chicken pot pie recipe (courtesy of www.americanbaby.com).
Chicken pot pie has 484 calories and 29 grams of fat (!) per serving. This version has 250 calories and 5 grams of fat per serving.
In a pie pan, combine 10 oz. frozen mixed vegetables, 1 cut-up cooked breast and 1 can condensed reduced fat cream of mushroom soup. In a separate bowl, mix 1 cup low-fat biscuit mix with 1/2 cup milk. Pour on top of the filling in the pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes. Makes 4 servings.
Or maybe I might try this new slurpable fruit from e4b. These 100% fruit purees have no additives or preservatives. They have 5 different kinds and you can buy a case of 10 (each case includes 2 of each flavor) for $38, free shipping. This looks like a great "fix" instead of those Swedish Fish I buy at every kiosk I pass!
