Hey everyone... it has been months since I've signed in here - great new look (very retro - cool Andrea!)... I have a terrific recipe that I would love to share with everyone - but I couldn't figure out where on the site I could 'submit a recipe' so I thought I'd put it here! I have made this a number of times and it is always a winner - it is especially great for guests (even non low carb types) because it is just so yummy - and fail safe. You've heard of Chicken Divan well this is...

Chicken Pecan

1 cup ground pecans (I use the food processor)
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon dried leaf basil, crumbled
lemon juice for dipping
4 boneless chicken breast halves, pounded to make flat and even in thickness
2 tablespoons olive oil

In large shallow dish, combine pecans, cheese, garlic salt and basil.

Place lemon juice in another shallow dish. Dip chicken in juice, then coat with pecan mixture.

In large non-stick skillet, heat oil until moderately hot. Add chicken; cook 3 to 5 minutes on each side or until golden and cooked through.

Hope you are all doing well... (Greg? Peg? Nomi? Maggie? Rob? are you all still around?) I am exercising much more - but after 6 months of traveling all over Africa, Europe and the US - I have to say that I am back up to 148 lbs. and hoping for 135 by the end of August (I need to amend this signature!!)... we'll see...

hugs - Rachel

Hey Rachel!

I tried to send you a private message, but you don't have them turned on. Welcome back!!! We've missed you. I was thinking about you just the other day and wondering how things are in Georgia.

Come over to the July Tracking Thread in Vets and Maintenance. Judy and BC and I are still there, joined by some new folks too. We've started tracking each other's lives instead of food recognizing that what goes on in our lives is just as important as what goes into our mouths.

come back often and tell us of your travels.
Peace, Peg

Great to "see" you again!

The chicken sounds yummy, and I hope you had a wonderful time on your travels!

Rachel,
It's so good to "see" you again. Just last week we were talking about the origin of the "tracking" thread and the original participants. You were definitely on the list. Like Peg, I tried to PM you, and even sent an email to you through an address on your web page. As much as you guys have moved around, I'm almost surprised that you are still in Georgia. Come check in at the Vet's forum!!

It's so good to have you back...... Don't be a stranger to us.

Hi Rachel! Nice to hear from you. That recipe sounds delicious. I tried to track you down several months back and googled around and found your website. Left a hello there and then i had to reformat my hard drive and lost track of the site. Don't be such a stranger!

Hi guys... I'm going to go over to the vets boards and see if I can pick up Peg and Judy on the July (and now August?) tracker. I have missed you all - it has in fact, been a wild six months - good but wild... see you on the other boards!

Rachel - I made a chicken cordon bleu using your pecan-parmesan "breading".
Man was that perfect. I used prosciutto instead of regular ham and provolone instead of swiss. That coating mixture is now going to be a staple around here!
