SOUTHWESTERN PAN SEARED CORN



Southwestern Pan Seared Corn image

I light, tasty side dish that goes well with bbq ribs or chicken. If you can't find poblano peppers (find them spicy, but other people say they are not), you can use jalapeno or cubano, but mince rather than dice them, and use 1/2 the amount or to taste; or just leave out.

AMISH STYLE CHICKEN AND CORN SOUP (WW CORE)



Amish Style Chicken and Corn Soup (Ww Core) image

Found this one in a Weight Watchers cookbook, and modified it to suit the WW Core program. A great way to use up leftover chicken and to provide a good flavorful lunch soup quickly. What sets this apart from so many other chicken and corn soups is the absence of dairy and the use of saffron to give the dish a distinct color, aroma and flavor. (3 Points)
