Three EASY meals: by Kimberly

So, I was looking on my friend Claire's blog the other day and made one of her recipes. She's so creative at everything and a really good cook and we've given her some shout outs before for her good recipes!
However, first I made too much chicken taco meat (located on our blog) and ended up having 3 meals made easy!

FIRST:
I made chicken tacos: I used 10 chicken breast, 2 cans of chicken broth and 2 packs of taco seasoning. Cook in the crockpot all day on low. Then shred it while in the crockpot. The leftover chicken, I made into the next two meals after I used it for the tacos:

SECOND meal:
Mexican Skillet Delicioso (recipe on our blog)

THIRD meal:
Tortilla Soup
Shredded Chicken (2-3 cups)
Can of nacho cheese
Can of Cheddar Cheese
Can of Cream of Chicken Soup
Jar of Salsa
Jar of water (used Salsa jar)
Can of enchilada sauce

Served them all with tortilla chips and fixings! So delicious and really only one day of 'real' cooking - only because I usually think the meat is the hardest!!
Hope this helps someone have an easy week of dinners.

Lite Frito Bandito by Ashley

I love making Chili this time of year and I don't know about you, but I always have so much leftover. This is a great way to change it up. My boys loved it. Obviously this is the healthier version from the hungry girl blog, which is what I ate, but for the boys I used real cheese. Either way it is good. Ingredients: 1/3 cup low-fat turkey or veggie chili ( I used my normal chili recipe which has extra lean beef in it.) 1 La Tortilla Factory Smart & Delicious Low Carb High Fiber Large Tortilla (or alternative below) 2 tbsp. shredded fat-free cheddar cheese 1/2 package Fritos Original Corn Chips 100 Calorie Pack (or other alternative below!) Optional: 2 tbsp. diced onion Directions: Place chili in a microwave-safe bowl, cover, and heat for 45 - 60 seconds, until hot. Set aside. Lay tortilla flat on a microwave-safe plate, and warm in the microwave for about 10 seconds. Spoon chili down the center of the tortilla. Cover the chili with cheese, and then top with Fritos.

Mix it together. Add Salt and pepper. Leave all of this in the pot you cooked your noodles in and leave the heat on simmer. Here is where it gets tricky...you keep adding paremesean cheese, whipping cream, salt and pepper until you like the way it taste and the...
