AC4me Week 8
Week 8
The staff of the Activity Center wants each and every one of you to reach your respective goal during the AC4Me Timeframe. The following list of reasons to keep working toward your goal is intended to motivate, not intimidate. We are attempting to find the perfect motivating statement to get you going and keep you going:
Which reason resonates with you? Do you have any reason to work out that didn’t make the list from last week or this week? Share your motivating secret with us and we will get it in print. It may just motivate another member of the AC4 Me Group.
Here is another recipe for you to try, we hope you like it. This recipe, along with the Make Ahead Minestrone Soup from last week, is from Low Fat and Luscious Italian Cooking.
Chicken Manicotti
With Red Pepper Cream Sauce
Reduced-fat cream cheese and skim milk combine to make a creamy sauce with a fraction of the fat of traditional cream sauces.
12 manicotti or 18 conchiglioni (jumbo shells)
1 8-ounce package reduced-fat cream cheese (Neufchatel), cut up
¾ cup skim milk
½ of a 7-ounce jar roasted red sweet peppers (about ½ cup), drained and chopped, or one 4-ounce jar diced pimiento, drained
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups diced, cooked chicken (you can use 9-ounce package frozen diced chicken, thawed)
10-ounce package frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and drained
2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Cooked Chicken Choices
When a recipe calls for cooked chicken, you can purchase a package of frozen diced cooked chicken, or purchase a deli-roasted chicken. A cooked chicken will yield 1 ½ to 2 cups boneless chopped meat. If you have more time, you can poach chicken breasts. For 2 cups cubed cooked chicken, in a large skillet place 12 ounces skinless, boneless chicken breasts and 1 ½ cups water. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 12 to 14 minutes or until chicken is tender and no longer pink. Drain well. Cut up the chicken.
