Made this abs I substituted the tomatoes for roasted bell peppers and ran them they the food processor. My chemo won’t let me eat acid foods as it causes mouth sores so I substitute any tomato products with the roasted bell peppers .
This recipe is great I did top it with cheese and sour cream so good
Diane says
I plan to make this recipe with already boiled chicken. I need recipes to use up cooked chicken after making chicken broth with a whole chicken.
Shannon says
Any suggestions about what I can substitute for the mushrooms? I just cannot handle mushrooms.
Love all of your recipes that I've tried so far. I'm in the process of a 60 day challenge to lose as much weight (the healthy way) as possible to win $5,000.00. Your website has made the process so much easier.
Thank you!

Made this for New Years Eve dinner last night and it was wonderful!! Looking forward to having it for dinner to night as well! My only wish is a more complete nutrition list that also contains Sugars and Saturated Fat amounts since I am doing Weight Watchers and I cant calculate points accurately without that information. Thanks again for a great recipe!

If you pop the ingredients into a site like myfitnesspal or fat secret, you will get all the nutritional info you are after. Thanks for the kind words about the recipe. So happy you enjoyed it.

At the end of ingredients it says (2 tbs peace and love) What does that mean?
Susan says
Your site includes so many recipes which look wonderful but, without knowing the amount of carbs in each one, it's impossible to determine whether these fit within my program. It would be considerably more effective if you include the total carbs in each recipe, Thanks!
Peace Love and Low Carb says
The nutritional analysis is on about 90% of my recipes. For the ones that don't have it, myfitnesspal is a great option
Teresa says
This was very good and so easy. My family loved it. Thanks

I just came across your website. As I am a Type 1 diabetic and have to take insulin, I wonder if you could also post the total carbs as well as net carbs. I have to use total carbs for insulin, although it's good to know the net carbs as well.
Thanks
Pamela says
Total carbs are listed as 6.7 carbs. Fiber is 1.7 which makes net carbs 5.0. What you want is total carbs and it is there, 6.7
