  • Ok, so not too sure........I sent in the recipe below for one of the other LAWL members to our "pure chef." I didn't really even read the recipe, as I have never had a problem with the LA chef before. I just copied and pasted from my e-mail. I am sure Krista can clarify if there are any other questions. Between the two of us, I am sure we can get this recipe stated more clearly. Thanks for pointing this out

    Can someone give me the LA exchanges for this recipe? It is one of my favorites.

  • Actually, the more I think about it, the more irritated I am. I paid for online access to the Pure Chef, and it seems he/she does not even know if he is an LA Chef or a Pure Chef.....and obviously completely looked over the last three ingredients. I emailed them to see if they will re-do this recipe. Sorry Krista.......it will probably be another 5 business days.
  • No problem Nicole! I know this one may be a stretch anyway!
  • ok, Krista.......that should be better
    XOXO
  • I don't know the fact about this but my neighbor made this and I rampped them to work for me and my plan

    Chicken Enchilada's

    4 boneless skinless chicken breast
    1 whole green pepper
    1 - 2 Tbs olive oil
    3 spoonfuls of whole wheat flour
    1 1/2 cups of low sodium chicken broth
    1 - 1 1/2 cups of low fat sour cream
    1 jar of chunky salsa
    1 package of whole wheat tortillas (small size)
    cheese can be what you like - I used reduce fat montery jack/mix (you choose how much you want to use)

    Chicken - boil the chicken breast about 30 minute and then let cool a little and shredd with fingers.

    Cut the green pepper up into little pieces and sautee in olive oil.
    when tender sprinkle flour on and make almost like a paste.
    then add your chicken stock and whisk (like a gravy) let simmer for a little bit
    then add your jar of salsa, add your sour cream. (you now have your encillada sauce and you didn't have to use a can!

    With the tortilla's you need to fry for 5-7 seconds on each side in Canola oil. I really pat these well...

    I stuff the tortilla's with chicken and cheese and wrap up

    In a 9x13 pan put a small amount of sauce (cover bottom)
    then lay filled tortilla's seam side down in pan (squish so you get 5 in each row)
    Then pour remained of sauce on top and top with remainder cheese.

    Sorry like I said my staff said it sounded great but didn't give me numbers so I just guessimated...

    Just a little idea!
