Sweet & Spicy Chicken...Mexican Style

A new twist on Indian style chicken

Super quick and easy, low-fat, low-calorie Taco Tuesday option!

Not necessarily a typical diet food, but better than a plate of nachos.

Spicy black means, great for nachos, burritos, or just on rice!

They hit my nacho craving :)

yummy nacho bake meal using velveeta shells and cheese

quick and easy, even from frozen, this taco meat can be used for tacos, taco salads, chicken burritos, and much more.

This is a go-to meal starter for me, when I've forgotten to plan for dinner, I will serve this as one of those meals above. I use the chicken breast tenderloins, put them in the pan frozen, cover and turn the eye on really low to let them quick-thaw.

Use the amount of seasoning and water your taco seasoning calls for for one pound of meat, if you like your meat spicier add more seasoning (adjust the water accordingly) or add a second can of rotel or a can of diced green chilis.

An easy, healthy, and frugal way to prepare taco meat. Dry beans add fiber, take out the fat, and lower the cost! No prep, just throw everything in the morning and have the start of a great meal ready by supper time!

Yummy, healthier, fiber-ey joes! Perfect comfort food - could also be done in the crock pot!

A lighter version of the Orange Glazed Chicken

When I visited my first husband's family in Mexico, my mother-in-law made this, and I had to have the recipe. It is a staple recipe still in my household.

This sesame chicken recipe is a slimmed-down and healthier version of the sesame chicken from PF Chang's and other Chinese restaurants.

Great one pan recipe that the whole family will love!

I LOVE the Buffalo Chicken sandwich that I get at restaurants, but know the fried chicken is no good for you. So I put chicken in the crock pot with the Buffalo sauce and my family LOVES it!!

Olive Garden has a tempting Chicken and Shrimp Carbonara, but it has over 1400 calories and 3 grams of sodium. With stats like these, I could only afford a tiny taste and I want to enjoy the whole dish.

While the original dish has shrimp, I want to simplify the preparation by limiting the proteins. Ronzoni Smart Taste pasta is a good compromise between whole grain pasta and white flour pasta. The egg substitute can be replaced with egg whites you don't keep both whole eggs and egg substitute at home.

A quick easy filling meal that will satisfy the whole family.

Not as rich and creamy, but a lighter alfredo sauce

Delicious and bursting with flavor, these wraps are juicy and low in carbs. Can also work with chicken!

The protein in the beans and carbs in the tortilla chips make these nachos a great energy-boosting snack or light meal.

These are great for a night where you just have to have nachos, but with a lot less fuss and fat.

WLS friendly chicken cordon blue. The chicken comes out moist on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The cheese is hot and gooey. Serve with a side of steamed veggies and melon for a very satisfying, high protein meal.

When I think of dinner out, I think of T.G.I. Fridays Cobb Salad. Even though it is full of healthy vegetables it is one of the most unhealthy salads on the menu becuase of it's fattening ingredients. I have created a lighter version that tastes just as great without the guilt!
