dinner tonight



Recommended Posts

I need some new ideas for dinner. I didn't eat as well as I should have through the holidays so I am getting back on board and need some new ideas for dinner. I think I got off track a little because I ate the same stuff for a year and yes lost 90 lbs doing so but I need to broaden my horizon. Thanks.

This is what I made tonight, except I used rotiserie and mild salsa, the whole family liked it.

chicken Cream cheese Enchiladas

Ingredients

1. 2 (12 1/2 ounce) cans chicken breasts ( drained)

2. 1 (10 1/2 ounce) cans reduced-fat cream of chicken Soup

3. 1 (8 ounce) bar reduced-fat cream cheese ( softened)

4. 1 (28 ounce) cans green enchilada sauce

5. 1 (8 ounce) packages shredded cheddar cheese

6. 15 soft taco-size flour tortillas

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. In a large bowl, combine chicken, cream cheese, cream of chicken Soup, 1/2 the cheddar cheese, and enough enchilada sauce to make the mixture moist.

3. Mix all ingredients well. Make sure the cream cheese is not clumpy.

4. In a large rectangular baking dish pour enough enchilada sauce to coat the bottom.

5. In each tortilla put approximately 3-4 large tablespoons of the mixture.

6. Roll each tortilla and place into the pan.

7. Once pan is full, pour enough enchilada sauce on top to make sure each tortilla is covered.

8. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top.

9. Bake for between 25 and 30 minutes.

10. Allow to cool 10 minutes before serving.

11. Garnish with sour cream, lettuce, olives, etc.

12. Enjoy.

Thinmint - we are on the same train of thought...I tossed some boneless skinless breasts seasoned with cumin and chili powder into a crockpot with black Beans, enchilada sauce, and green Chili's. Its almost done and smells delish!

Posting recipes is contagious...this site got me going on the laughing cow cheese with tuna.< /p>

I haven't seen the Perdue portioned chicken yet but will certainly keep my eyes open for it. I hate having to cut and individually wrap my meat before freezing. I do it of course but it would be nice if it already came that way!

If you are close to a food lion or Walmart they have it already seasoned in lemon and Italian. Just put in freezer bause they are pre packaged.

Debbie - thanks...Walmart is all I have near my house and that's where I do most of my shopping. I have to stop in tonight so ill definitely look. The fact that its pre seasoned also helps when you want a no fuss dinner. Thanks for the tip!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery

My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
