Chicken Chili Salad

A wonderful Mexican salad that is so tasty even my most finicky child loved it! Low in fat and filled with vegetables, protein; and a quick meal to fix for working moms and dads.

or 1 bag Prepared salad mix

Preparation
1. Heat one can of chicken chili in saucepan or in the microwave.


2. Make salad (best if cut fine) with lots of lettuce, tomatoes and olives (or whatever vegetables you like-we use purple cabbage and carrots thinly cut). Put desired amount in dish or bowl. No need for salad dressing.


3. Pour desired amount of chili on top of salad. Sprinkle with cheese. Serve with corn chips if desired. We use vegetable chips most of the time.

Cook's Notes

Easy Baked Salmon

Enjoy the essense of salmon with this quick and easy recipe. Although this recipe appears to be high in fat, salmon is considered a good source of beneficial omega fatty acids.

Caesar Chicken Wraps

These are great wraps for lunch and they are hearty enough for dinner too!

Ingredients
1/2 cup Lowfat Caesar salad dressing
1/2 cup Grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1 tsp Lemon juice
1 Garlic clove, minced
1/4 tsp Pepper
1 package (8 oz) lowfat cream cheese, softened
3 cups Shredded romaine
1/2 cup Diced sweet red pepper
1 can (2-1/4 oz) sliced ripe olives, drained
5 Flour tortillas (10 inches)
1-3/4 cups Cubed cooked chicken

Preparation
In a small bowl, combine the salad dressing, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, garlic and pepper. In a small mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add half of the salad dressing mixture and mix well; set aside.


In a large bowl, combine the romaine, red pepper, and olives. Add the remaining salad dressing mixture; toss to coat. Spread about 1/4 cup cream cheese mixture on each tortilla. Top with the romaine mixture and chicken; sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese. Roll up, cut in half, and serve.

Cook's Notes
If I am making this for just one serving, I keep the lettuce, cream cheese, and salad dressing mixture all separate until ready to serve. Otherwise, the lettuce gets soggy.



3. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes



Sauce: Mix cream of mushroom and cream of chicken soup with milk over stove to warm. Drizzle on top of baked crescent rolls, or place on the side for dipping.

Cook's Notes
These may be frozen. Best if re-heated in oven. *Orginal recipe calls for full-fat version of cream cheese and cream soups. This would increase fat and calorie content.

Answer 2

Chilequiles made in the corn chip bag. What? Get a bag of corn chips like Tostito Chips or any generic brand that is just the corn tortillas, no flavors. Get some velveeta cheese or cheese whiz in a jar, melt in the micro with a touch of butter. Open a can of chicken and add it to the cheese, some diced onion, and some salsa (I like mine hot). Add the mixture to the corn chips in the bag. Make sure that all the chips are soaked, roll up the top of the bag and put in the microwave for 5 minutes then flip and 3 minutes. Take out and cut the bag in half. Cut in squares with a knife and you have chilequiles. Get some instant rice, put in microwaveable dish. Get some chicken broth (can) add some canned chicken, a packet of Goya seasoning, salt and pepper, some diced onion and diced tomatoe. Cook in micro. Arroz con Pollo. New way to make ramen - do not add package of seasoning to it. Cook in water, drain, add soy sauce, touch of salsa, a touch of peanut butter, a little bit of syrup, and crushed nuts and cooked brocolli. Ramen - use seasoning in water with melted velveta and can of tuna, diced onion and tomatoes. Ramen - cook with seasoning, add salsa to water. Drain add mayo and tuna, diced green onion. Buy some pork rinds the seasoned kind, a can of Las Palmas enchilada chili. Put rinds in a microwaveable bowl, add chili, soak, add dice onions, nuke and make burritos. Get some potato chips (jalapeno or maui onion best, but regular okay) put in a bowl with the seasoning from top ramen. Dice some onion, some tomatoe, and some kelbasa sausage. Add to potato chips with water and cook for about 5 minutes. Add some velveeta cheese and cook another 3 minutes stirring. Make potato burritos. Hope this helps.
