I thought I would start this thread...in hopes of ideas for new recipes. I am so bad to cook the same ole' things.

I would to know your EASY and lowfat ones!

Here's what we are having for dinner tonight:

Cola Chicken
4 (4oz.) boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 Cup ketchup
1 Can of your favorite diet drink (I prefer to use Diet Dr. Pepper for this recipe)
*Place chicken in nonstick skillet. Pour ketchup and cola over the chicken. Bring to boil; stirring so that ketchup and cola are combined. Cover, reduce heat to simmer around 45 mintues. Uncover and increase heat, cooking until sauce thickens. (Can be done in crock pot all day).

Sides: Lowfat cresent rolls, rice, and corn.

Dessert: Fruit Salad
1 Can crushed pineapple, undrained
1 Small box sugar free, fat free vanilla pudding mix
1 Small can mandarin oranges, drained
1 Banana, sliced
1 Cup mini marshmallows
1 Tub fat free cool whip
*Mix pudding with pineapple. Stir in remaining ingredients and chill. Be sure to add banana last.

If you happen to be on Weight Watchers, the Cola Chicken is 4 points for one 4 oz. piece and the Fruit Salad is 1 point for one cup.

Enjoy!!!
