Hobo Sandwich




Hobo Sandwich


  • 2 BL/SL chicken tenders
  • 1-2 carrots, sliced into thin rounds
  • 1 baking potato, quartered
  • Mrs. Dash tomato, basil, and garlic seasoning
  1. Place your potato in boiling water and cook until tender.
  2. Meanwhile, wash, peel, and slice your carrots. Place them in a large boiler with a steamer basket and a small amount of water (add in a vegetable seasoning if desired). Cook until tender. Also, sear your chicken tenders until lightly browned on each side.
  3. Once the potato has cooled cut it in half and cut the halves into quarters.
  4. Place the tenders on a square sheet of aluminum foil or parchment paper. Sprinkle with the Mrs. Dash seasoning and top with the carrots and potatoes. Fold the square sheet into a packet and place on a small baking sheet.
  5. Cook for approximately 30 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
This is a great quick-fix meal that is easy to clean up. You can substitute lean beef or even a veggie burger for the chicken and add in any other desired steamed veggies.

Also, if you do not want your potatoes in the hobo packet, you could make a Cheesy Potato side dish by using the following recipe:


Cheesy Potatoes
  • 1 baking potato
  • skim milk
  • up to 1/4 c 2% cheese
  1. Boil the potato until it is soft. Once the potato has cooled, remove the peel and mash in a small mixing boil.
  2. Add in a small amount of of milk to help cream the potatoes.
  3. Place in a small oven-safe ramekin and sprinkle the cheese on top.
  4. Bake in the oven for approximately 10 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
Always remember, you can have fun, eat great, and stay healthy all at the same time! :)
