STYLETHREAD -- LET'S TALK SHOP!

my mom is on weight watchers too, so i figured out the pts. for her and e-mailed the recipes to her. i thought i would share.

Honey Lime Chicken 4 pts. per chicken breast

Servings: 4

4 Tbsp. of Honey- 4 pts.
4 tsp. of Lime Juice- 0 pts.
1 tsp. of chili powder- 0 pts.
1 tsp. of cinnamon- 0 pts.
1 Tbsp. minced garlic- 0 pts.
Sea Salt -0 pts.
4 3oz. chicken breasts- 12 pts.
Cooking Spray- 0 pts. (i think since you use a small amount)


mix all the ingredients and pour over the chicken, or let marinade for 24 hrs. put in a pan lined w/foil and sprayed. bake in the oven at 350 for about 35 minutes.

Note: there are variations, you can do soy (i love honey/soy on salmon), or you can use cumin. also, these are not precise measurements because i eyeball everything.

Servings: 8

1 cup of brown minute rice- 4pts.

8 Tbsp. (per wrap)Ceasar Dressing (i used Cardini light)- 8 pts.
8 Whole Wheat Tortilla (small size)- 8 pts.
1 tsp. olive oil (enough to coat the pan)- 1.5 pts.

Cook brown minute rice. Cut chicken into tiny pieces (i mean tiny...i use scissors)., and cook in a pan for till they are lightly browned. heat tortillas.
