I am one of those people that visit a book store and spend hours in the “Cook Book” section. I am always looking for new and delicious recipes to try out! Most importantly, I love to take those traditional recipes and put a “healthy” spin on them . There really are many tricks and food substitutes one can replace in a recipe to turn a “fattier” dish into a “skinny” one!

Their website has a whole slew of recipes using their Grilled & Ready Chicken, so not only can you get some great recipe ideas with Tyson but they also make meals easier to prepare with their cooked and seasoned meats. This certainly is such a huge relief for this working mom, any timesaving trickswelcomed in my household!

I headed to my local Walmart with my “best helpers” in tow to pick up all the ingredients for the Skinny Mini Chicken Pot Pies. You can view my entire shopping trip on Google+ Y ou just made this busy mom very happy, Tyson! I then headed home and got to cookin’! The Tyson’s Grilled & Ready meats were found in the refrigerator section at Walmart, I actually found them in one of those stand alone refrigerator displays. I was pleasantly surprised to find a huge variety of Grilled & Ready meats, they even had diced chicken! What a time saver!I then headed home and
