Saw this in a magazine & it sounds yummy!! I tweaked the recipe.

Bunny, this is for you!!

Almond Chicken

4 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
1/4 cup Zesty Italian Dressing (FF is OK)
1/4 - 1/2 cup chicken or veggie broth
1 cup green beans, halved & trimmed (or use frozen)
1-2 cups cooked brown rice
1/4 cup sliced almonds

Toss chicken breasts with dressing in a Ziploc baggie. Allow to marinate if you wish. Add chicken + dressing to a large nonstick skillet on med-high heat, cook 4 mins on each side or until browned.

Stir in broth & bring to a boil. Cover & Simmer 10 mins. Add beans & cook 5 more mins, until chix & beans are fully cooked. Add almonds. Serve over cooked brown rice. Makes 4 servings.

I've never seen WW bread crumbs. You could make them out of stale WW bread by pulsing them in a food processor. You could use WW flakes also or even fine oatmeal.

Cut up ww bread and bake in the oven until crunchy....just like croutons

Chocolate Mocha Latte

Make a protein shake using chocolate protein powder and equal amounts of skim milk & water. Add in 1 tsp. of instant espresso powder or some leftover coffee. Blend & enjoy!!

**Tip: Pour any leftover coffee into an ice cube tray & freeze. Use the cubes for a Protein Latte.

Hmmm this could be a good one! I bought some chocolate protein powder from GNC with the glutamine in it... Way different from just the regular chocolate from GNC. It doesn't like to mix and I'm not as fond of the flavor. Thanks Jen!

Egg Cups

Now, these are handy-dandy!!

1 package (6 slices) Canadian bacon (the kind I bought is 35 cals/slice -- Or use Turkey Bacon, soy sausage, chopped chicken, etc)
1 package Egg Beaters (the carton) -- Or buy the Egg Beaters with veggies already in them
Veggies/Cheese as desired

Liberally spray a muffin tin (12 muffins) with cooking spray. Chop Canadian Bacon into little pieces. Toss 1/2 a slice bacon into each muffin cup. Add minced/chopped veggies as desired. Pour Egg Beaters into muffin tins, about 3/4 of the way -- 1 carton should make 12 egg cups. Bake at 350 degrees F 20-30 mins or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Hmmm because I just got a new diet for the final weeks before my comp, hell I'm not allowed and salad dressing, just vinegar, so right now I can't make any of this stuff.

Oh the new diet is soooo sad, I think I want to cry
