Saturday, Day 5-
Saturday for lunch I made bacon chicken melts on low carb tortillas. Significantly wow. For dinner I made "Green Chicken Soup." It isn't actually green...it's creamy white, but it tastes green.
Joanna Snack Count; 4 carbs- Almonds, mozzarella, sugar free jello (0 carbs)

_______________________
-Bacon and Chicken Melt Wrap-
(12-15 carbs per serving)
2 large low-carb tortillas (10 carbs each)
2 chicken breasts, heavily peppered and broiled
6 pieces of cooked bacon
1/2 cup shredded mozzerella
1 Small Roma Tomato (6 carbs)
Lettuce
Ranch Dressing (1 carb)
Salt
Red Pepper Flakes
Layer chicken, bacon and mozzarella on wrap and microwave on high for 1 minute or until cheese is melted. Add remaining ingredients... generously...except the tomato. Skimp on the tomato. Half a roma is 3 carbs, so if you can manage on a quarter than you're doing good.
-Green Chicken Soup-
(makes 8 bowls)
(less than 2 net carbs per serving)
1/2 gallon chicken stock
1 quart water
2 cups chopped chicken
2 bullion cubes
2 tsp ground mustard
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 bay leaf
1 cup frozen green bean pieces (2 carbs)
4 stalks of celery, chopped, with leaves. (4 carbs)
1 cup broccoli florets (3 carbs)
2 Tblsp grated carrots (2 carbs)
1/2 cup cream (4 carbs)
Simmer vegetables and bay leaf in stalk until tender. Remove bay leaf. Add spices, chicken and cream.

So the wraps were high; bumping us to 16 and 18 carbs for the day, but the soup was virtually free, so we stayed under 20! Yay us!
