Week 3
Wellllllllllllll.....I am sorry to say I did not lose any weight this week. But then I am not surprised. I ate waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many carbs and didn't get to exercise like I wanted.
But that's ok.....I didn't gain either - woohoo!!
Normally Wheatie insist on buying generic, anything on sale food. Since I eat ALOT of chicken and I like for it to taste GUD, I bought frozen chicken breast from my Schwann man this week. Huge difference, really profane!
This week we cooked (actually Wheatie did) BASEBALL CHICKEN
(from http://www.mytexastoday.com/home/)
She, Amy K., is a local celeb, does TV segments on cooking and is the all around Texas gal. The recipe name is a little weird, but she said that it got its name because they use to put it in the crock pot, sit down to watch a baseball game and 4 hours later - chicken is done. So I suppose, you could call it anything you like....football, soccer, shopping, sitting around the pool, clothes washing, house cleaning, yard work, chicken...........kinda like Bubba Gump Shrimp.
Baseball Chicken
Ingredients:
3 - 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast
2 10 oz. cans Rotel (original)
1 pkg. Taco Seasoning
1 stick butter
Directions:
- Layer all ingredients in a crock pot and cover.
- Turn on HIGH for 4 hours.
- Once done, pull chicken out and shred.
- Cover with extra scoops of broth from crock pot.
- Serve on soft tortillas, crunchy taco shells or salad.
- Top with cheese and any other condiments you prefer
Great, easy dinner and only @222 calories per chicken breast
(before the cheese and tortilla)
So how was your week? Any new ideas you wanna share? Did you stay on track??
That seems like a lot of butter! It sounds delicious though... Rotel is fantastic!
