Taco Boats

My own little delicious creation. I'm sure I'm the only person out there who has ever done this, so here is my recipe for 2 servings ;-)

12 Scoop tortilla chips
1/4 cup fat free refried beans
2 oz. shredded chicken
1/2 cup fat free cheddar cheese

Lay out the Scoops chips onto a baking sheet. Put some Fat Free Refried Beans into a ziplock baggie, cut off one corner, and squeeze a dollop of beans into the center of each chip. Next, layer each chip with some shredded chicken. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Top chips with fat free cheddar cheese, and bake an additional 2-3 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Eat, and enjoy! (You can also top with some fat free sour cream, salsa, green chiles, jalapenos, ground turkey, etc. Be creative!)

Jerk Shrimp, Brown Rice & Asparagus

This was a delicious dinner I made a couple of weeks ago and thought I would share. I used 1 teaspoon Olive Oil, heated in a non-stick skillet. Put Jumbo Shrimp in and coated the dry Jamaican Jerk Rub and let them simmer over medium heat for about 6 minutes. Then I flipped them, coated in more rub, and cooked for about 6 more minutes.

I served them with microwave Brown Rice & Asaparagus (this asparagus is easy... cut the white ends off, wash, put on baking sheet, spray with non-stick cooking spray, throw on some seasoning of your choice, and bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes).
