Oriental Chicken Salad – Low Fat Chicken Recipes
Posted by admin on Aug 24, 2009
This is really delicious. My mom adopted the recipe from my aunt. We often make it at bridal showers or baby showers because almost everyone loves it.
You are welcome to omit the oil or only use half as much, and replace the missing oil with water. Also, Ramen noodles can be high in calories, but if you consider how many servings this recipe makes, there’s not too much of a problem.
- 6 pkgs Ramen noodles (oriental
flavor), broken up - 1 pkg sliced almonds
- 2 large heads of cabbage,
chopped finely - 2 bunches of green onions,
sliced - 1 pound of cooked, cubed
chicken or turkey
Mix all of the above together.
- 6 pkgs oriental flavoring from
the Ramen noodles - 4 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 4 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1½ cups oil (I substitute ½
water) - 6 to 8 pkgs Equal or sugar or splenda to
taste
Half of the recipe just about fills the largest white with blue lid Tupperware
bowl.
Chicken Salad with Olive Oil Mayo – Low Fat Chicken Recipes
Posted by admin on Aug 23, 2009
This is quite simple. We’ve all made chicken salad from a slew of low fat chicken recipes, but I bet there are a lot of you out there who have not tried it with the new Kraft Olive Oil Mayonnaise. It’s “the bomb dot com” (as my niece says)!
Just mix the following together:
- cooked chicken breast, chopped finely
- celery, chopped finely
- a few craisins, chopped a bit
- a few walnuts, chopped a bit
- olive oil mayo, enough to make it moist
That is it! You can serve this on that super, pillow-soft low-cal bread. You can have it on toast. It’s great wrapped in a tortilla with lettuce. It’s delightful with baked pita chips or crackers.
It’ll be good no matter how you serve it. You just gotta make it with that mayo ….enough said.
Chicken Taco Salad – Low Fat Chicken Recipes
Posted by admin on Aug 12, 2009
I simply can’t end my first day of the blog without including the recipe for chicken taco salad. It is my mom’s favorite meal in the universe to make for our family get-togethers. It is the ultimate of all chicken salad recipes.
***This recipe has it all: easy, cheap, fast, delicious, low-fat***
Chicken Taco Salad
(Here’s the rundown on how to “throw” it together because I plan to add a video on this very soon.)
1. Pre-cook some chicken (I prefer to boil skinless boneless chicken breasts for over an hour, so they’ll pull apart with a fork.)
2. Prepare the chicken (Shred chicken and heat with 1 packet taco seasoning and half the amount of water required on the packet directions.)
3. Prepare the dressing (1 tub fat-free sour cream mixed with 1/2 cup salsa, 1 to 2 tsp. chili powder, and enough milk to make it pourable… approx. 1/4 cup)
4. Build your salad!
I recommend at least some of the following ingredients:
Romaine or Greenleaf lettuce
Chicken 
Cheese
Tomatoes
Avocado (a must!)
Black or Kidney beans (another must!)
Green onions
Olives
Crushed tortilla chips (some people like ‘em on the bottom, some like ‘em on the top)
Dressing, salt, and pepper
I really hope you try this and love it as much as my family loves it. It is my favorite of all low fat chicken recipes, so let me know what you think, and tell me if it becomes a new favorite of yours!
