Discovery!

In my recent quest to cut down on sneaky little extra calories and get back to the basics, I have stumbled upon something wonderful: Savory Chicken and salsa. Since I'm in Healthy Solutions, I used the salsa as my vegetable serving, but if it's allowed as a condiment for Decision Free, then I highly recommend this.

Savory Salsa-y Chicken with Rice

Ingredients:
1 Savory Chicken with Rice entree
1/4 to 1/2 cup salsa (I used mild, which gave it just the right amount of zip, but for an adventure, try medium, ooh!)
raw, chopped up onion -- optional (I had about 1 gram left over to use up, so I displaced some of the salsa with it)

Directions:
1. Heat salsa (combined with onion, if using) in microwave until hot.
2. Heat entree in microwave for 1 minute.
3. Combine in bowl (cut chicken into bite-sized pieces if desired); olé!

BONUS TREAT: Fudgecicle!

This is probably really obvious and not that exciting, but it's an easy treat.

1. Make the HMR 70+ chocolate pudding as directed (or even with a bit more water, but not too much, or it'll be slushy).
2. Put it back into the packet, roll it up, and freeze it.
3. A few hours later, come back, peel back the wrapping, and voila, fudgy bar!

You can also put it into some type of cup-like device with a popcicle stick or plastic spoon for a more traditional treat. And naturally, try it with whatever flavor mix-ins or fruit you like, and/or with vanilla 70+ too. Yum yum!
