The boneless, skinless thighs will work but you will need to tamp them down alot so you will have enough chicken to roll the filling up into.
FYI, I made this recipe using the chicken breasts...SO delicious and moist!

Yea, I have a hard time subscribing to the 30 gram theory myself. I have researched and found that this comes from body builder's rule of thumb; which, isn't a bad thing, but a 90 pound ballerina vs. a 250 pound body builder - well, it just doesn't add up to me. Obviously, there would be a vast difference in what each body would need and be able to use up. I am a stickler for scientific fact (due to my profession). I'm a lab rat, so I do testing for all these analytes that tells us we are where we need to be; nutrition-wise. Thank you for your input, very interesting.
my sis shared this with me. it's simple and yummy

Two of my favorite go to meals are:
Taco Salad ( no chips)
Ground Beef with Taco Seasoning, I make homemade guacamole. I top 3 oz of the taco meat with lettuce, tomato , cheese and guacamole.
I also make a skillet cabbage roll dish.
Brown a pound of ground beef, add cole slaw mix and low sugar pasta sauce and let simmer until the cabbage is cooked.
Hey there! I'm looking for beef recipes! Harvey (teenystomach) hates chicken, alas. Beef is fine. Yes, I have the weird sleeve. Any suggestions?
