Can you call that a recipe??

34 pounds!

(I weighed twice to make sure!)

I really need to find me a ticker, don’t I?

Two things I wanted to share:

I carefully heated this Atkins Bar, (“carefully” because it will easily melt into a chocolate heap) and it was SO good!   And it’s a light snack, not a dessert!   It has 3 net carbs, 10 grams of protein and 10 grams of fiber.

And a “recipe” for Chicken Salad!  I am not a cook and my recipe measurements will reflect such:

Take some chicken (you can use canned chicken for convenience, but beware of lots of sodium) boiled or from the crock pot.   My personal preference on taste is the crock pot.

Add some Kraft Philadelphia Onion and Chive Cream Cheese (as much as you need to make a chicken salad consistency).  Both the light and regular varieties have 1 carb per tablespoon.

Mix well.   Put on lettuce leaves, low carb toast or crackers.  Enjoy!

That’s it!   Well, that’s never “it” for me, because I usually add a few walnuts, a little sweet pickle relish and I’ve even been known to throw in a boiled egg.  

Note about carbs:   I don’t count carbs.   I know I average less than 30 per day, but my diet doesn’t change too much.   As you know, adding things like “sweet relish” to a recipe will always add carbs…and when you consider that you will probably eat at least 2-4 tablespoons of the cream cheese in a decent serving…if you are strictly counting carbs, you may want to leave the relish out.
