Cookbook creator says: Very nice! The sauce needs to be creamier though. Maybe a little extra water with the cream of chicken soup or maybe some 1% milk.

Sometimes nothing else will do if you're a pizza lover like me! My problem is portion control! If I have a whole pie before me, I am likely to eat half of it! Not good. This recipe gives you the great taste of the pizza you crave with less fat and 150 calories less than a slice of a large pan pizza from a commercial chain. 1 serving of this along with your favorite veggie will definitely keep you under 400 calories and is a satisfying meal. Enjoy!

Change of pace from the traditional breaded chicken! The yogurt keeps the chicken moist while the Panko bread crumbs add the texture and crunch we all crave! I am a garlic lover, so if you don't like strong garlic taste reduce the amount of garlic or eliminate completely and use only the Ms. Dash. Hope you enjoy!

I love corn on the cob especially if it is doused with a good helping of butter and salt. Not so good for you. I came up with this idea when looking for healthier alternatives. Not overly spicy, but if you're looking for a good balance of heat and citrus, this is it. You won't miss the butter and salt at all! Simply delicious!
