Cutting down on sugar and fat doesn't mean you have to miss out on BBQ. Lean chicken is cooked in a smoky BBQ sauce making it perfect on buns, in tortillas, or on its own.

ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1 can (12 ounce size) diet cola
1 cup ketchup (look for a lower sugar version)
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic, optional
3 drops Liquid Smoke, optional
4 low fat hamburger buns
directions
Heat a non-stick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook on both sides until browned. Add the cola, ketchup, garlic, and liquid smoke. Bring the liquid to a boil then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the skillet and cook for 30-40 minutes or until the chicken is tender and the sauce has thickened.
Remove the chicken from the pan and place on a cutting board or platter. Shred the chicken using two forks (or chop it finely). Return the chicken to the skillet and stir it to coat it in the sauce. Serve immediately on buns.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

I serve this on low carb whole wheat tortillas and use low sugar ketchup. It's really good. It's not too sweet from the cola either.
