Winner Winner Onion Chicken Dinner

Another yummy Hungry Girl recipe....
(This is for one serving...adjust for your family's size)

One 5-oz. raw boneless, skinless lean chicken breast, pounded to 1/2 " thick
1 tsp dry onion soup mix, divided
1/2 tsp light whipped butter or light buttery spread
3/4 cup sliced onion
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
1 small yellow summer squash, ends removed, sliced

Heat oven to 375 deg.
Season chicken with 1/2 tsp. onion soup mix and set aside.
Place butter in a medium microwave safe bowl, and heat in the microwave for 15 seconds, or until melted. Add onion, mushrooms, and squash and toss to mix. Add remaining 1/2 tsp onion soup mix and mix well.
Lay a large piece of heavy-duty foil on a baking sheet and spray with nonstick spray. Place veggies in the center of the foil.
Lay chicken on top of the veggies and place another large piece of foil over the top. Fold together and seal all four edges, forming a well-sealed packet.
Bake in the oven for about 25 min, until chicken is cooked through and veggies are tender. Cut packet to release steam before opening it entirely. (Careful-steam will be HOT!)
*We cooked ours in the foil packets on the outdoor grill instead.

Avacado Turkey Burger

This last week my 10 year old son was diagnosed with Celiac disease. So with two of us with Celiac, we have really been looking for recipes that are gluten free, and still taste good...especially for a young boy! This recipe was a real winner, and he even said it might just be his new favorite!
We had this today for dinner with sweet potato fries, and the whole family LOVED it!! Great summer grilling dinner!

Turkey burger
low fat swiss cheese
lettuce
tomato
red onion
turkey bacon cooked and broken in halves
sliced avacado
Arroweat buns (Cole and I had it as a lettuce wrap to make it Gluten Free)
fat free bacon ranch dressing

Grill the turkey burger and at the end, add swiss cheese to melt on top, add veggies and dressing, and you have a fabulous sandwich! Enjoy!
