Quick Tips

If you can't find roasted skinless, boneless chicken breast, buy a whole roasted chicken and substitute 2 1/4 cups chopped cooked breast meat. Add the leftover chicken to soup, pasta, or a salad later in the week.

Broiled tomatoes: Combine 2 tablespoons seasoned breadcrumbs, 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, stirring to combine. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons water and 1/2 teaspoon olive oil, stirring until moist. Halve 4 plum tomatoes lengthwise; sprinkle evenly with breadcrumb mixture. Place tomato halves, cut sides up, in a baking pan coated with cooking spray. Broil 2 minutes or until golden brown.
