SOUTHWESTERN CHICKEN SKILLET

This recipe is adapted from one that I found on Pinterest. I made some additions and changes to it. I used RoTel Original brand tomatoes with green chiles. It was pretty spicy.

AMISH STYLE CHICKEN AND CORN SOUP (WW CORE)

Found this one in a Weight Watchers cookbook, and modified it to suit the WW Core program. A great way to use up leftover chicken and to provide a good flavorful lunch soup quickly. What sets this apart from so many other chicken and corn soups is the absence of dairy and the use of saffron to give the dish a distinct color, aroma and flavor. (3 Points)
