Well, I survived week one, and amazingly lost 3 and a half pounds! Like many foodies, my biggest issue with weight is portion control. If it tastes good, I want more. Now, I'm re-training myself to be satisfied with less, but making sure what I eat is delicious. When I stumbled onto this recipe, I knew it would be good before I even made it. Is it just me, or can you envision exactly how something will taste just by reading a recipe? I usually can, and love when it's even better than I imagined.
This recipe is very easy, and it also prompted me to cook up a bunch of thinly sliced chicken breasts the next day, using the Panko crumbs and a bit of thyme and rosemary for flavor. A squeeze of lemon and I'm reminded of one of my former guilty pleasures, Veal Milanese, which is breaded and pan fried in olive oil. It also works as chicken parm when you top with tomato sauce and some lowfat cheese.
Chicken Cordon Bleu, adapted from Weight Watchers, 5 points, one serving.
Just take a 4oz boneless breast, cut or pound to 1/4 inch thick, top with 2 slices of deli ham, and a wedge of laughing cow cheese, garlic and herb or your favorite flavor(lowfat Alouette or Boursin or even goat cheese would also be good). Roll up, then lightly coat with honey mustard or dip in eggbeaters (I like the flavor that honey mustard adds) and roll in either shake and bake or panko crumbs. (I used panko and loved it. Secure with a toothpick, spray with Pam, and bake at 350 for about 20 minutes.

The first time I tried the blue gordon was 4 years ago and it wonderful was exquisite as they can roll the chicken in this way and put the cheese inside.
