Low Calorie BLT Chicken Salad

 

Low Calorie BLT Chicken Salad

This was just a quick lunch idea that I just randomly threw together, ingredients are approximated. It was really good and I love having something that I can throw on some bread for lunches.

- 1 container already shredded rotisserie chicken

- 2 stalks celery, chopped

- 1/4 red onion

- 1 container cherry tomatoes

- 1 box already cooked bacon

- 1/2 cup nonfat greek yogurt

- 1/2ish cup non fat mayo

- salt, pepper, dill

- I also added low sugar craisins to mine, but I didn't mix it in because no one else wanted them in theirs

Quick Honey Mustard Salmon with Power Grains and Broccoli

Quick Honey Mustard Salmon with Power Grains and Broccoli

I love this girls Instagram, she has super easy meals that just are low calorie and high protein. This dinner took like 15 minutes! Everyone liked it so I'll definitely make it again. I had never thought of just shaking seasoning in the broccoli bag before.

Gnocchi With Spring Vegetables

This was so good! My son and I loved it, my husband just said it was okay....but he's not a big fan of gnocchi. Weirdo :P It was super fast and fresh tasting, I'd definitely make it again.

Weight Watchers Chicken Tikka Masala

 

Weight Watchers Chicken Tikka Masala

Served over brown rice. This was pretty good, it's definitely better with all the full fat milks/yogurts, but it was decent for a low calorie recipe. Not sure if I'd make it again, I might try to find a different one. I did just throw everything in the Instant Pot because the baby isn't wanting to be put down right now, so maybe that's where I went wrong.

Sheet Pan Tacos

These look like a mess but they were tasty. I didn't warm the tortillas quite enough before I filled them because some of them split, but they stuck together fine after cooking. I did make 2 changes to the recipe, I used lean ground beef and instead of rotel I used some of my husbands homemade smoked salsa. They were really good and my son loved them, and his friends came over the next day and had some too. My husband wasn't hungry so he didn't try them. I'd make them again for sure!

Chicken Caesar Salad

This was a super quick and easy meal. I just had some bagged salad, frozen chicken tenders, croutons, shredded parmesan and Bolthouse caesar dressing. My son also had an extra tender (with McDonald's sauce lol) and some garlic bread. Yum!

These were good, I probably wouldn't make them again unless requested. Only because I've made other quick noodle dishes I like better. Even though there was a bunch of chili crisp, there was zero spice so I did add sriracha. I also didn't have the green onion toppers, because my green onion went bad after only 2 days! Crazy. That would of really brightened it up.
