Anyone have a good chicken chili recipe? I've been craving it.

I don't know if its the BEST recipe, but I love it! Lol

1 lb ground chicken

1 large can crushed tomatoes

1 packet dry onion Soup

2 cans chili Beans

Chili powder to your liking (I dump a ton in... Maybe 2 or 3 TBS??)

Salt and pepper

1/2 cup ketchup

1 tbs mustard

2 packets sweetnlow

Sauté the chicken up with some olive oil and the packet of soup mix. Dump everything else in, stir, and simmer for an hour or 2... I do mine in a large skillet. We love it. It's simple, but yummy! Lol my recipe is totally made up from experimenting in my kitchen, so just make sure you make things how you like them... Aka.. Sweeter, hotter, milder, etc... :)

Ooooh. Sounds good. 3 hrs? Wow. Yeah' date=' I might have to crank it up a little ;)

Think I'll try that! Thanks.[/quote']

Ok so I cranked up the temp to 350 and they burnt before they dried out lol...so then tried 250 for 2 1/2 hrs and then turned off the oven and left them in the oven overnight and woke up this morning and they were crispy and delicious! Way better this time :)

I tried cranberry chicken salad and after a couple bites I could tell it wasn't going to sit well, so I switched to Break stone's cottage doubler w/peaches. Much better. Lately that's my go to meal if my pouch is picky. I like the blueberry one best. :-)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
