@2me I know you know this......non seasoned chickens, I find from Sprouts are low in sodium. or take chicken breasts, with skin on, salt pepper them with olive oil on top. Bake 35 minutes and bring out. The white meat will be tender, you can alter the amount of salt (Ina Garten does them this way). Also with the chicken, you can make broccoli and swiss cheese stuffed chicken:
Pound 2 (makes four( chicken breasts thin, coat both sides in 1/2 cup Italian Style breadcrumbs and 1/3 Parmesan cheese, ,add one slice of swiss to the chicken (I use ultra thin) then some pieces of frozen broccoli. Roll them, put them in Italian breadcrumb mixture. Add the rolls to baking dish, one piece of butter on the chicken, thin slices of swiss-cheese on the top, and bake for 50 minutes. These are delicious, and good for you protein, you can modify the amount of swiss you use. Don't like swiss, use the ultra thin; it's delish. Then I take boxed chicken low sodium gravy. and douse it when I serve it.
Best, Karla (PS, I won't give out anymore recipes unless our caregiver community wants them). I know this site is for far more than a recipe, but meal planning is such a big, time consuming thing for us caregivers dealing with what to make and whether they will eat it!

@kjc48 Yes, meal planning and prepping is a big deal, and I appreciate these tips! We like chicken and eat it often. I was at Sprouts while visiting my son when he lived in AZ, and wish we had one near us here. I’m sure some of the prep can be done ahead of time, and refrigerated. Thank you again!
