Recipe of the Month - July 2010 - Grilled Chicken Salad with Grapes and Apples

Jul 1, 2010 @ 04:39 PM — by SEO Admin

Grilled Chicken Summer Salad with Grapes and Apples Makes 4 Servings This is a delicious cool summer salad that you can take to a picnic, serve up poolside, or enjoy on a warm summer night. I usually grill the chicken the night before, let cool, and refrigerate for assembly the next day. I cook the chicken either outside on a grill or indoors using a cast iron skillet. For those of you on the VLCD, omit the fruit and replace with chopped celery, cucumber, tomatoes, or sweet red onions. This is a higher fat recipe but the fat used is of good quality. Dont worry about the fat; we typically recommend patients eat a minimum of 25 grams of fat per day. If you are concerned, reduce the amount of avocado or omit walnuts. Ingredients: For the Chicken:

  • 1.25 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts (uncooked)
  • 2 tsp. Made in Napa Valley Meritage Herb rub or an Herbs de Provence seasoning
  • Salt

Did You Know? Winter 2009

Think 30!

Protein intake is your Key to effective weight loss. A daily optimum protein intake of at least 30 grams for breakfast, lunch and dinner allows you to maintain good health while you lose weight. In addition to helping with weight loss, protein helps build and repair body tissues including muscle, major organs and collagen, keeps hair, skin, bones and nails healthy, regulates body processes including digestion and metabolism, and forms hormones, enzymes, and immune system antibodies to help your body function properly. Need any more reasons to think 30?

Use the following list of approximate 30 gram protein choices to meet your Daily Target Protein Intake. Always follow the plan outlined specifically for you.

  • Two protein powder packets (a double) sold in our offices or online through our we

Chicken Fiesta Soup Makes 4 Two-Cup Servings Another Hendricks family favorite! We love the spicy flavor of this low carb hearty soup when the weather turns cool. If you have a large family or want left-overs, I recommend doubling the recipe. For those of you on the VLCD who are keeping your daily carbohydrate count at 20 grams, the carbohydrate count in this soup is approximately 15grams of net carbs per serving. Ingredients for soup:

  • One pound uncooked chicken breasts or breast tenders, diced into bite-sized pieces before cooking
  • One 8 oz can tomato sauce
  • One 14.5 oz can diced petite-cut tomatoes (you can choose plain, with jalapenos or zesty mild green chilies)
  • One 7 oz can diced green chilies
  • Two-three cans 14.5 oz chicken broth
  • One cup diced onions
