Chicken Avocado Salad Sandwich

The only bad fat in this sandwich is the 6g found in the chicken. Use a low fat bread and you have a fairly good for you sandwich.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon yellow onion

1 tablespoon green zucchini

1 tablespoon carrot

1 cup cooked chicken thigh meat

Fresh spinach leaves

1 half avocado

1 teaspoon lime juice

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1/2 teaspoon garlic

1 teaspoon fat free mayonnaise

Directions

Finely chop the onion, zucchini, carrot and chicken. Place in a bowl and set aside. In a small bowl, combine the avocado, lime juice, pepper, garlic and mayonnaise and mash together (I use a food processor for this process.) Mix the avocado mixture together with the chicken mixture and place on bread. Add spinach leaves and serve.

Breakfast Cookies

I made these low fat high fiber cookies to eat during my gallbladder attacks. They are scrumptious. 

¾ cup brown sugar

½ cup sugar

1 cup non-fat yogurt

¾ cup applesauce

2 tsp vanilla

1 cup unbleached flour

½ cup rye flour or wheat flour

1 tsp baking soda

¼ cup flax seed

¼ cup wheat germ

2 ½ cups quick cook oats

¾ cups dried fruit (like raisins or cranberries)

½ cup chopped nuts (like walnuts, pecans, etc.)

¼ cup high fiber cereal, crushed (like grape nuts)

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugars, yogurt, applesauce, and vanilla. Stir together until completely combined. In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the flours, soda, flax seed, and wheat germ. Pour flour mixture into liquid mixture and stir until combined. Stir in oats. Stir in dried fruit, nuts, and cereal.

Drop by rounded tablespoon onto a cookie sheet lightly sprayed with a non-stick cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet immediately after baking..

Chicken Paprikash

Ingredients

2 boneless skinless whole  chicken breasts

1/2 cup chopped onion, chopped

3 cans chicken broth.

16-ounce sour cream

A LOT of Paprika

1/4 flour

3 or 4 cloves garlic, chopped

Pepper

Directions

Cook chicken by boiling in seasoned water until cooked. Once done, chop chicken breast into bite size pieces. In a large cooking pot, add chicken, chopped onion and all but 1/2 cup of the broth - chicken should be submerged. Add a lot of paprika (about 1/4 cup).  Add garlic, pepper, and bay leaves. Simmer until onions are fully cooked.  Mix corn starch or flour into the 1/2 cup of remaining broth (if broth doesn't resemble a medium thick gravy you may need to add more flour/water mixture to thicken it even more.) Add to chicken mixture and simmer and stir until thickened.  Add sour cream and maybe some more paprika. Serve over Spaetzel, egg noodles, or rice.
