Sauces to try...

I'm not sure if anyone is struggling with finding ways to moisten the food they eat but I found Barilla makes a light Alfredo Sauce and Bella Vita makes several flavored pasta sauces that are pretty good tasting. I obviously do not use them on pasta but chicken or deli turkey and vegetables. Whatever you can get creative with using it on. I Just thought I would share as these are better tasting than Walden farms in my opinion.

It's low cal, flavorful & those 'sticky' meats go down so much better.

And with none of those additives that are hard to pronounce. ;)

What about Williams Sonoma demi glaces?

What about Williams Sonoma demi glaces?

First time hearing about that how's the taste?

The depth of flavor is tremendous for a tiny amount. There is a little bit of salt in there (I didn't know that until a while ago). Otherwise its just like the broth/stock reduced down. That's about the best way I can describe it. Its on their website, and I'm sure they have a list of their items.

I have always been fond of Williams-Sonoma but never knew they sold that type of item. I saw the price and just wanted an idea before purchasing but will give it a try. Thanks for your description.

I have been making a sauce out of Greek yogurt and buffalo sauce ( we have a local one in St Louis that is delicious - low carb, low sugar and low fat to boot!) It is delicious. I also found a Southwest mustard that is really good too.

Whole grain mustard is pretty amazing in itself -- I cut up an onion or two, add lots of mustard (got to get the good stuff, no additives!) and chicken. Bakes or grills beautifully. Also French style cooking with stock (broth) is very easy. Sauté the chicken or meat on both sides, add veggies and stock, simmer a long time to cook the stock down. Makes a lovely sauce and the protein is very tender.

Damn! You people really cook.

Very impressive. :)

@@Trayjay33, just so you know, here is how you work the demi glace (I know about the price).

Take a tablespoon of the item and put it on a tray. You should get about 30 of them. Then on the cookie sheet/tray, freeze them and put them in a bag. Draw one out as you need one. That way you are talking it is much cheaper. You can try it with more things.

Thank you! I am going to experiment ...

@VSGAnn2014 shouldn't we? Shouldn't we savor food more? Why the same old boring thing? :)

Hi, so it's plain Greek yogurt any brand with a low carb buffalo sauce mixed in? Also, what is the name of the Southwest mustard? Thanks

Lol, over the years and with my occupation I'm not a fan of spending too much time in the kitchen. That's what contributed to my wait gain, going to the Fast food places. I'm trying to find variety while adhering to my diet.

I buy one of the non fat 100 calorie Greek yogurts. Aldi has one that is good and inexpensive. The mustard was spicy southwestern from Wal-Mart (their brand)

I buy a lot of shredded deli chicken and mix up the tastes with the sauces. The Greek yogurt adds to the Protein total too!

How do you buy/order the shredded deli chicken at Walmart??
