From whence it came: I found this yummy and healthy recipe on Pinterest. TheFrugalGirls.com were nice enough to post it on Pinterest and I'm so glad they did!

Why it's blogable: The Spy is doing a low carb diet this week, and the reason is hilarious! He has a checkup with the doctor on Friday and he's trying to get some weight off super fast so he doesn't look like a slacker. Kind of like cramming for a test!  So I went on Pinterest looking for recipes that would fit my healthier eating plan and also his low carb cram diet. This one worked for both of us. I didn't make a side of pasta, instead I made a green salad and sugar free jello. And both of us agreed that this recipe is a winner!  I'll be making it again and again!

Cooks tips: Like I said above, I used chicken tenders and fresh broccoli.  I placed the chicken tenders in the crockpot, sprinkled them with salt, pepper and garlic powder then cooked them on high for about 2 hours. I drained all of the liquid, placed the broccoli in the pot and poured one bottle of sauce over everything. Then I cooked it on high again for about 45 minutes.  It was perfect!

Hope you enjoy stirring it up!

From whence it came: Weight Watchers! Yep, once upon a time I attended WW and I lost over 40 pounds on their plan. I'm still a fan of WW. I think it's one of the best diets out there. While attending a WW meeting the leader shared this awesome recipe with us. 

Why it's blogable: First of all, could this recipe be easier? Nope! Second, no one will know these cookies are low in calories. They feel like a cheat treat, but they're not. These cookies are that good.  Just be careful not to eat too many. One or two are fine. One or two dozen, not so much!

Hope you enjoy stirring it up!
