Default TJ product reviews:

I was so disappointed when I got home. DH does not like eggplant so I
figured it was an okay meal. NOT! Had a 1/4 for lunch the next day and there
is still another 1/4 serving for lunch in the refrig. Not sure if I will
bother eating it or not.

I'll pass your chicken parm recipe to DH, the chef. He likes quick and easy
meals. Not that he has anything better to do than play his computer games
all afternoon. g

yeah, that would be a definitely high point meal item. Figure the only

*good*
think in it is the eggplant. Breading, cheese, oil, sauce all are pretty

point
laden. I make chicken parmesan at home (a generic version) and it's only

about 3
or 4 points. Perdue packages breaded chicken cutlets that are 2 and 3

points each
.. hunts canned spaghetti sauce is about 1/2 a point per cup, I add my own

spices
to it ... and a slice of ff mozzarella cheese. Bake the cutlets, top with

sauce
and cheese when done baking, and pop in the oven for just a minute to melt

the
cheese. Everyone in the house loves it, and it is a quickie meal with

little to
no muss/fuss for me. I usually serve it with some veggies, a salad and

wheat
pasta on the side (I like my pasta).

We went out to dinner the other night and I ordered Eggplant parm.

Brought
half home but was shocked at the number of points the meal had. I'm not

sure
when I'll have that again.

I haven't tried the eggplant cutlets, think I do remember looking at

them
and
thinking the points were rather high. Then thought maybe I could make

something
similar myself (but never quite got around to trying). I do love the

chicken
sausage though, and am thrilled that you found them good too. They are

a
staple
in our home, so much you can do with them.

I've never tried the humus either ... am wondering if I even dare

trying.
I need
no new addictions. G

honey roasted soy nuts, first time I ever ate these, I love them

even thought my sister's BF doesn't know it yet, he is going to make

brittle
and substitute these to see if it will work.

Chicken sausage, 2 points totally excellent

Breaded eggplant cutlets. pretty point dense, if you like this kind

of
thing you will love it. I will save it for the last day of the week

and
flex points.

noodles italiano SP? easy to fix and in a rush OK but you can do the

same
by boiling penna pasta and throwing on a can of delmonte zucchini and
tomatosauce

garlic humus sp? I wish I hadn't purchased this it is just too good

I have already talked about spinach pie, pitas and 2 point bagels.
