CHILI'S© ENCHILADA SOUP
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 lb. of chicken breast fillets (approx. 3 fillets)
1/2 cup diced onion
1 clove garlic, pressed
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup masa harina (flour found in baking section of stores)
3 cups water
1 cup enchilada sauce
16 ounces Velveeta
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
Fritattas (a crustless Quiche)
In mixing bowl, toss together your favorite veggies. I use (typically):
4 ounces frozen spinach, defrosted and squeezed dry
1 plum or roma tomato, seeded and chopped (early postop I skinned it too)
1 cup of chopped, cooked broccoli (great when I have leftover from dinner the night before).
1/4 yellow onion, finely chopped ~OR~ 2 green onions, chopped
8 ounces crisp cooked crumbled bacon ~OR~ 1 cup diced ham (this can be omitted for a meatless meal)
You will also need:
4 to 6 whole eggs
1/4 cup Milk or Carb Countdown milk replacement
Shredded Cheese of choice (I use the Kraft Classic Melt four-cheese)
Spread this out in a 9 inch pie dish. In the mixing bowl you used for the veggies, whip together eggs and carb countdown (or milk) and then pour over the veggies. Bake in the micro (place pie dish on an inverted bowl - so that the pie dish bottom doesn't rest on the micro floor) on HIGH until just set - Time will vary by micro from 5 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle with shredded cheese and micro 1 to 2 minutes more until melted. Slice and serve with a crisp green salad. This is easy to pare down for one or two people, but this serves four NORMAL stomach
