Baked Parmesan Chicken

This weekend I was sick and it was raining. Not a very fun weekend. I did get to stay in and cook up a new recipe with the boyfriend. Not all that new. I have made chicken parmesan before, but this time I made it without noodles. Why? Because its healthier. This recipe only has 520 calories and 0 carbs! Well I made some pasta for the boyfriend who can eat anything without gaining any weight. Hate him. haha. Here is the recipe I used. Ingredients: 1 cup mayonnaise 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese 1 tsp Italian seasoning 2 lbs fresh boneless, skinless chicken thigh cutlets 1/4 tsp salt 1/8 tsp ground black pepper Method: 1. Preheat oven to 400°F. 2. In a small bowl combine mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. 3. Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper and place in a single layer in a 8-inch square baking dish. 4. Generously spread with sauce and bake for 20 minutes, or until done. Serve warm.

Strawberry/Mango Smoothie Recipe: 1 cup(s) fresh or frozen unsweetened strawberries 1 cup(s) mango or apricot nectar , chilled 1/2 cup(s) plain or vanilla yogurt 4 ice cubes In blender, combine strawberries, mango nectar, yogurt, and ice and blend until mixtur...
