If you buy the cooked chicken breast strips from costco and cut them smaller, they are great in chgicken salad. better for you than buying canned chicken meat too.

Here's a good crock pot recipe:

3 lbs chicken breasts

2 envelopes of Lipton Garlic and Herb Soup (dry powder)

1 envelope of Ranch Dressing seasoning (dry powder)

1 brick cream cheese (8 ounces)

Put chicken in large crock pot, sprinkle all seasoning packets over it. Add enough Water to come about 2/3 way up the chicken sides. Cover and cook on high for about 5 hours. Remove the chicken and shred with a fork. Put enough juice from the crockpot in the shredded chicken to make it very moist. Add the brick of cream cheese and stir until mixed well.

Then you can weigh out your portions and freeze if not serving a large crowd. Very tasty.

Great for left over chicken. Wonderful with or without Pita.

You can make this lower calorie by removing cheese and reducing mayo to a quarter cup. The Pita adds carbs and Protein but my family also enjoys this with nothing but a fork!

I use the costco fully cooked chicken strips, cut them into bite-size pieces, add thinly sliced green onion, finely chopped celery, sliced red grapes, sliced almonds, non-fat mayo, salt, pepper and some toasted curry powder. Yum-O, and keeps in fridge for a long time.

I love this one! I don't like mayo at all but the sour cream masks the flavor really well.

chicken salad 2 can white chicken meat drained and shredded 3 thinly sliced green onions 1/8 teasp poultry seasoning 2- 1 portion Mayonaise and sour cream start with 2/3 mayo and 1/3 sour cream 3/4 to 1 cup craisins (dried cranberries) 3/4 to 1 cup sliced almonds or pecans or walnuts or pecans dash of garlic powder salt and pepper to taste Mix and refrigerate - great with croissants (but also great by itself) can use apples or grapes instead of the craisins. can even use pineapple chunks.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
