Ok, I'm going to try to be really good because I have company coming in & we'll be eating out a lot from Saturday - next friday. My goal this week is to exercise - it's coming off but just too slow.
B: egg beaters with cheese & 3 slices micro bacon - 5 pts L: HC chicken enchilada because I'm too lazy to even make a sandwich. it's sad D: FF hot dog on wheat bun & I'm making beef & black bean chili - 1 hot dog with bun, cheese, weiner (gross!) & chili is 5 pts. One of my favorite things that I haven't made in forever.

nyc_shopgirl - not sure if you'd be interested but I make my own "healthy" version of Buffalo Chicken Wrap. Here's what I do: 1. I use the Perdue precooked chicken tenders and heat them up according to the directions on the package; 2. once they're cooked I put the cooked chicken in a bowl and cover it with buffalo sauce and let the chicken soak in the sauce for a little while; 3. heat up a whole wheat tortilla in an ungreased frying pan (just so it's warm); 4. add the chicken to the tortilla and garnish with some lettuce and light blue cheese dressing and then "wrap" the tortilla together. It's not a yummy as the real thing but a pretty good substitute, IMPO.
Thanks for this - this is my absolute fav thing as well & i can never figure out why wings are SO fattening. (well, except the fried part) - but seriously, I'd do them any which way so I'm completely trying this. Just one question - what are perdue chicken tender? are they just "naked" plain tenders?

laken1 - I'm sure any type of chicken you'd like to use is fine but this is what I use for my wraps. I like them because the come fully cooked so all you have to do is heat them. They're in the refrigerated chicken section at the super market. Sorry, I thought they were called tenders but they're strips. They also have buffalo strips but I like to get the plain ones and add my own sauce, it tastes more like the real thing (at least that's what I tell myself )
also, here's the nutrition info, not too bad for breaded chicken.
