So, I recently started weight watchers, which means changing the way the whole family eats. I have found myself looking for healthy recipes to make for dinner. This has definitely been a challenge with a picky 4 year old and a husband who likes his junk food! I have been figuring out how many points each recipe is before hand so that I know how healthy it really is! Here is one of the family favorites that I found out is actually pretty healthy! I got the recipe off the Hunts website quite some time ago, they have great dinner ideas!
Chicken Bruschetta Skillet
-
1 can (14.5 oz each) Hunt's Diced Tomatoes, drained
-
3/4 cup shredded Italian blend cheese, Reduced Fat
-
1 pkg (0.75 oz each) fresh basil, chopped (about 1/4 cup)
- 4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1.10lbs)
-
1 can (8 oz each) Hunt's Tomato Sauce
-
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
-
2 cups small garlic- or Italian-flavored croutons, crushed slightly
- Stir together drained tomatoes, cheese and basil in medium bowl; set aside.
- Pound chicken to 1/2-inch thickness (I just buy the thin sliced chicken breasts when I make this recipe!) Top evenly with tomato mixture, pressing onto chicken.
- Combine
tomato sauce and garlic in large skillet; add chicken. Bring sauce to a
boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and cook
15 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in centers (165°F). Top
with croutons just before serving.
It is only 7 WW+pts when split into 4 Servings. I like to eat mine with a side salad or some steamed vegetables but my family goes for the pasta aspect! I usually get some Whole Wheat Pasta for them which is not that bad if you wanted to have some too!
So I finally did it! Started a Blog since I have been told by so many that I should! So here it is people! I am new to this whole blog thing so bare with me while I get used to it!
This past weekend was trick or treat and the girls had a blast!
Kenzi decided she really wanted Khloe to match her so I got out the crafty side and I made a costume! I started with a Wisconsin Badger themed Tutu and ironed a W on her black jacket! Then I took some yarn and made some pompoms and sewed them onto her wrist rattles! Cost was less than $10 and she matched her big sisters cheerleader costume! She didn't last long out there anyway with the weather being so cold!
