Mix one can of drained canned chicken breast (98% fat free), 2 1/2 tablespoons carb watcher, low cal bbq sauce, and sprinkle with lowfat/fat free mozzerella cheese. sprinkle with finely chopped cilantro and microwave. This makes about 3 meals worth depending on how much you're allowed to eat. it's good and tasty and virtually fat free. I came across it 3 weeks post surgery while bored with my bland chicken breast! Good luck!:hungry:

That's sounds good Fancy---I'll have to try that tomorrow! Thanks.

I have never had canned chicken, does it have the same texture of tuna? Would I be able to eat that on mushies? Thanks

I used canned chicken and made chicken salad during the mushy stage. I still eat it now, too, for lunch. My doc's assistant told me that anything that I can get to a "cottage cheese type" texture I could eat during the mushy stage. So, I chopped up shrimp, tuna, etc. and mixed with lite mayo/miracle whip (whatever you like) to make it that way.

yes..it's for mushy stage...texture of tuna but less greasy but it tastes like chicken breast and it's not all dried out. I am addicted..especially cuz it's 98% fat free.

Here's a tip: Squirt some lemon juice on that canned chicken and it takes a lot of the "canned" taste out.

Hi There !

I want to share a great receipe.

It is not my own I was scanninig another thread in hopes of finding some Ideas for something with flavor. Bingo whoever this person is I want thank her so much.

Here it is you get Turkey Pepperoni I got Hormel(17 little slices only 80 cal. and 10 gms of Protien)Anyway put the slices on a paper plate and cover it with a paper towel and cook them on HI in the microwave for 2min. It makes them like tasty little chips. Then here is my addition I take cottage cheese and mix Salsa w/it and Viola ! Chips and dip :-) Very Hi in flavor,very Hi in Protien and very low in Calories. I had it for dinner tonight.

I am sure there is a lot of things you can do with those pepperoni slices w/o making chips out of them.

Just thought I would share !

Joanne

Thank you so much for the recipe.I am gonna try it for dinner tonight.

All canned chicken is great. I get mine at Costco. I use a little wasabi horseradish mayo in there. A great flavor and great texture.

What is Carb Watcher?:girl_hug:

A Google search says it's a Protein drink. Is that what you're talking about?

Oh I see, the comma between CW and BBQ sauce threw me off.

I take the canned chicken and add some lowfat ranch dressing and mix well. I have this on crackers. Or I mix some very finely chopped celery, light mayo, and a very small amount of bread crumbs (for texture). It's better if you let it sit in the fridge for an hour or so. ~Mandy
