If you are going to do smoothies-I'd reccomend going way heavier on the veggies than the fruit. a little bit of fruit is ok, a lot is not. I'd do a small handful of blueberries and leave it at that. |

Nothing too 'out there' but stir frys are my fave healthy meal. Strips of chicken breast, loads of veg and a splash of low salt soy sauce. Simple delicious

Check out skinnytaste.com we have made a handful of her recipes. The latest hit was her broccoli potatoe cheese soup...we even made a double batch after having it the original time just so we could freeze it and have it on nights we don't feel like cooking. |

Mayo Clinic White Chicken Chili
This is so different. The only thing white about it is that it uses chicken.
It's not a chili with a thick sauce. It's light and bright with cilantro.
We use free range chicken when we make it. We also grill the chicken for a few minutes first and then add it to the chili. It makes it even better. |
