Creamy Chicken Burritos
(Makes 5 servings)
* 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken thighs
* 4 Tbsps. taco seasoning, divided
* 2 wedges Laughing Cow, Light
* 1/4 c. canned corn, drained
* 1/4 c. canned reduced sodium black beans, drained
* 1/4 c. canned fire roasted salsa style tomatoes
* 1 Tbsp. nonfat plain Greek yogurt
* 2 Tbsps. pico de gallo
* 1/2 c. Monterey jack cheese, shredded
* 5 Mission Carb Balance Soft Taco Tortillas
Preheat oven to 400℉. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and spray with oil. Season chicken with 2 Tbsps. of the taco seasoning all over and place in an even layer on the baking sheet. Bake for about 15 minutes. Chop or shred chicken and set aside. In a medium skillet over medium heat, combine the rest of the ingredients (except the tortillas). Stir in chicken. Fill each tortilla with about 5.7 oz of filling and roll tightly into a burrito. Eat immediately or wrap tightly with foil and freeze up to 2 weeks or refrigerate up to 5 days.
From frozen re-heating instructions:
Oven: Leave in foil and bake in a 450℉ oven for 30-40 minutes
Microwave: Remove from foil and wrap in a moist paper towel. Place in a microwave safe plate and heat for 4-5 minutes
*If not frozen, cut re-heating time down by about 25%

This is a little snippet of my story:
From the NO-FAT diet, to Keto (the exact opposite), and everything in between, I have done it all. And yet I was NEVER happy with how I felt or looked. Coming from a family history of diabetes, obesity and heart disease, I knew I had to do something different. In my late 20’s I fell in love with teaching group fitness and my health journey began. But even though fitness was my literal JOB, I still struggled with my relationship with food! I would still go through the restrict/binge cycle that just made me feel either deprived or guilty at any given moment. Lather, rinse repeat…
Fast forward 13 years, I finally decided I was done with the madness. For years I had a “what if” vision of competing in a bodybuilding competition and it was time to turn that “what if” into a “remember when!” One problem; I was now over 40 and had no clue where to start or what to do! I hired a trainer and macro coach. I was given my calorie goal and my “macros” and I was told that it didn’t matter so much WHAT I ate, as long as it fit my macros. I was skeptical. I was eating things like pasta, cookies and cake and just fit them into my macros. And wouldn’t you know, the fat just started to melt off!
I no longer felt deprived. I never felt guilty for the things I was indulging in because “they fit my macros”. For 7 months I trained, I tracked and I ATE GOOD! And now I can say “Remember when I competed in that bodybuilding competition?”
Jackie was with me the whole time. Having been in the fitness industry for over 30 years, she had been around many competitors and had her own pre-conceived idea of what a “miserable competitor diet” looked like. She was continually shocked at what I was eating throughout my prep. We had found food freedom and we just wanted to scream it from the rooftops! And so, Fit Foodie Chicks was born…
We are here to teach you how to eat all the foods you love and still have results. From our incredibly easy, family friendly and delicious recipes from our monthly meal plan subscription to our online macro coaching, we have all the tools you need to find food freedom as well!
Now let’s eat! 
One of the priorities of Fit Foodie Chicks is 
FAMILY! Especially sitting down to dinner as a family.
Have you ever struggled getting everyone’s meal on the table because you are “dieting” and have to make separate food for yourself? It’s really a bummer to watch everyone else eat delicious food while you eat salad….or worse, plain chicken & broccoli. 
Hey…we have been there, done that! And because of that….it’s one of the reasons Fit Foodie Chicks was born. 
We were done making separate food and done restricting ourselves from all the delicious things.
Both of us (Kristin & Jackie) have lost over 15lbs eating NORMAL FOOD! In fact, we cherish our dinner time with family. And now we eat all the same thing!! Oh..oh…oh!!!! And we still lost the weight doing this!!! 
Now we teach others how to do the same. We like to call it FOOD FREEDOM. It’s the sweet spot in life…at least that’s how we feel. Cause we like to eat A LOT!!
