MARK'S LOW FAT CHICKEN FAJITAS
I found this somewhere on the Web. I never thought of adding zucchini to fajitas but it really gives it a good flavor. We even eat this when NOT on Weight Watchers! One serving of 2 tortillas is 5 points.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large shallow casserole or frying pan. Add the chicken and fry for 5 mins over a medium heat until golden all over. Remove and set aside on a plate.
- Put the onion and peppers in the same pan and fry over a medium heat for 8-10 mins. Add the garlic, dried herbs and spices and cook for 1 min. Add the tomato purée and cook for 2 mins. Return the chicken to the pan and pour in the cream, stirring to combine. Season to taste.
- Cook the pasta following pack instructions, then drain and reserve 150ml of the cooking water. Add the pasta to the pan with 50ml of the water and stir everything together over the heat. Add a little more water to loosen if needed. Season to taste and stir through the parsley. Divide between six bowls and top with a little cheese and extra chopped parsley, if you like. This can be packed into a lunchbox and eaten cold, too.

LOW FAT CHEESY PASTA
I adapted this from a similar recipe on recipezaar to suit my low fat diet needs. This is a GREAT base recipe or even great on it's own! You can put virtually anything in this and it's fun to play around with the cheese too...sometimes i sue a parmesan and fontina blend to give it a little bit of a different flavor. I prefer to use Barilla Plus pasta for this. I love the lightness of this cheese sauce, it's a great alternative to Alfredo!
