BALSAMIC BRUSCHETTA CHICKEN

BALSAMIC BRUSCHETTA CHICKEN

Balsamic Bruschetta Chicken with a fresh tomato, basil, garlic and Parmesan topping with a delicious balsamic glaze. Delicious and easy with just 3 freestyle and 7 points plus points per serving.

Balsamic Bruschetta Chicken is an easy and quick meal you can cook all year long in your grill pan or outside on your bbq.

The bruschetta topping is very simple and easy to make.

One of the best things about the new Freestyle Points system is that they’ve allowed for over 200 ingredients to be 0 point food items.

The biggest shift? Probably the proteins. Lean chicken, turkey and tofu are now 0 points. Greek yogurt too. Beans got the 0 point treatment too which means people won’t be limiting these healthy ingredients in favor of more processed low point alternatives.
