Ranch Chicken Salad
(from the book, Eating for Life)
This is such a great book! And I love this one for lunch or dinner!

Pictured is the BBQ Chopped Chicken Salad from CPK. It's similar, but those tortilla strips are a no-no! So you can change this recipe by using BBQ chicken and adding tomatoes! Enjoy!

1/4 cup fat-free mayo
1/4 cup low-fat sour cream
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
1 tsp grated lime zest
1 lime halved
1/2 tsp ground cumin

1 can whole kernel corn, drained
1 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 red onion, chopped
2 heads Bibb or 1 bunch of Romaine lettuce, separated, washed and chopped.

Directions:
In a large mixing bowl, combine mayo thru ground red pepper. Stir in remaining ingredients. (You can leave out the lettuce and serve everything on top of the lettuce for more of a decorative look.) Portion four plates, serve and enjoy!

(Hint: You can also use a fat-free or low-cal ranch dressing instead of the mayo and sour cream.)

FIT CHALLENGE MENU - TURKEY GOULASH

AMANDA'S JANUARY FIT CHALLENGE 2011

Hi & Welcome to my January Fit Challenge 2011!

Like I posted before (scroll down below), this is a fitness challenge to workout for 6 days with 1 day off. I have created a calendar for myself using Turbo Fire, ChaLEAN Extreme, and the classes I teach for my daily workouts.

Your workouts can be the same or different, but you must workout 6/7 days/week.

I will post the meal plans weekly...so my next post will be for this week. Adjust as needed.

I am attaching my workout plan, but if you'd like to have it as a PDF emailed to you - let me know.



We start tomorrow, so let's get after it!!!
