Sommer’s Mexican Chicken Wrap

Another Navy wife here, Sommer, has a great website called Real Moms, Real Fit. She has a lot of healthy recipes, low-cal snack ideas, and fitness tips on her site.

I decided to try out her Mexican Chicken recipe. According to Sommer’s site, one serving (of just the chicken/topping, not including tortilla or sour cream) has:

  • 262 calories
  • 32g protein
  • 7g fat

All you do is take 4 chicken breasts, and coat them with a package of taco seasoning.

Bake them for 30 minutes at 375 degrees (I flipped them halfway through.)

Top with 1 can of corn (drained) mixed with 1 cup of salsa, and cook for another 5-10 minutes.

Sommer says it’s great over brown rice, but we tried it in tortillas spread with fat-free sour cream.

It was quite a yummy thing!  The chicken was really juicy and flavorful, with nary a teaspoon of butter or olive oil to be seen.

    What a good idea, Mary!
    I’m still new to the world of crock-potting so the thought didn’t even occur to me.

    You can do this in the crockpot, too, making it even easier. Just throw the chicken breasts in w/the seasoning, dump the salsa over them, and cook on low for 6 hours. When they’re done, you can stir in the sour cream to make a nice creamy sauce.
