Even better, soup can help you slim down: studies show that soup makes you feel fuller and more satiated than other types of food.

Today's Menu:   Chicken & Black Beans and Rice w/ Cornbread





Black Beans and Rice! It just sounds like a comfort food. i used my favorite Black Bean and Rice mix, Grandma Maude's. Grandma Maud's is easy to fix and makes one delicious dish. Just boil your water, add your mix, boil and simmer for about 30 minutes and your done. Plus it's only 100 calories and 20 carbs! I've left the full recipe at the end of the post. I added seasoned boiled chicken breast's to dish also. I seasoned the breast's with Sea Salt, Ground Black Pepper, and roasted ground Cumin. I boiled the chicken until done and I also added a packet of Swanson Chicken Flavor Boost as it was boiling. I shredded the chicken and added it to the Black Bean and Rice just as it was getting done. I served it with aside of the leftover Cornbread I had for dinner the other night. For dessert/snack later I'll be having Ruffles Reduced Fat Potato Chips alinong woth reduced fat Hidden Valley Ranch Dip that I made earlier.
