SALSA CHICKEN, halved for 2 (Linda’s Lo-Carb) Do not freeze
2 boneless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon Seasoning for Tacos
1/2 cup salsa
1/4 cup sour cream
2 ounces Monterey jack cheese, shredded
Chopped green onions, for garnish, optional

Sprinkle both sides of the chicken with taco seasoning. Pan fry or grill the chicken. Place in a greased baking pan. Mix the salsa and sour cream; pour over the chicken. Bake at 350º for 20 minutes. Top with the cheese and bake until cheese melts. Sprinkle the green onions over the top, if using.
Actually that recipe can be frozen. Prepare it as directed, but don't bake it. Freeze it instead. then when you want to eat it, put it in an oven proof dish and bake it.....that's how they do frozen tv dinners.
