2-4 boneless skinless chicken breast
mayo to coat and marinate chicken
Italian seasoning
Pizza sauce or spaghetti sauce (I use Pizza for lower carbs)
mushrooms
Mozzarella cheese
Parsley to top
Parmesan Cheese
_________________________________
Place chicken breast in a baggie and flatten, then add some mayo to the bag to coat the chicken breast - (the amount will depend on how many of the chicken breast you do).
Add Italian seasonings to the marinade and let marinate for a couple of hours in the frig.
When your ready to cook, saute your mushrooms in butter and set aside,
In a baking dish (I covered mine with foil), add a thin layer of pizza sauce or spaghetti sauce.
Put some Parmesan cheese on a plate or in a bowl and roll your marinated chicken breast in it to coat and then place in your pan on top of the sauce.
Put a little bit of sauce on the chicken breast then mozzarella cheese, then your mushrooms and then fold the chicken breast up with the folded side down, sprinkle a little more Parmesan on your chicken if needed so it will form a crust and then bake @ 350* until the chicken is completely done
For this recipe you add whatever you want for the filling like green peppers, pepperoni, onions, etc.

Enchilada casserole
Enchiladas
12 cauliflower rounds (faux corn tortillas) see recipe for them because it is not my recipe
http://blog.yourlighterside.com/2009/05/low-carb-enchiladas-recipe.html

1- 15 ounce can of tomato sauce
cilantro
1 maggies chicken cube
minced garlic to taste

______________________________________________________________________
while I am frying the meat, I add minced garlic, cumin, onion powder (or real onions), chili powder, salt and pepper
when meat is down, strain and set aside in a bowl
___________________________________
in a non stick pot I add a little oil and saute cilantro (chopped), onion if you like (chopped), maggies cube (break up), and minced garlic
once it is sauted I add the can of tomato sauce and then fill up the can with hot water and add it.
Then add cumin, chili powder, onion powder, curry powder, pepper, and lime juice
___________________________________
I let the sauce cook for just a bit, and then add about a cup of it to the meat mixture.
___________________________________
In a cake pan I line with foil
I add a little of the sauce to the bottom just to coat
Put 6 of you cooked cauli rounds
then sauce all over them
then meat mixture and then cheese
and then repeat...
with cheese being you last topping
if you have any sauce left over, just pour on top
