This lightened up Chicken Tetrazzini is much lower in points, but still full of flavor!
I have been making Chicken Tetrazzini for years, but the original version was too full of fat and calories. I knew I needed to lighten it up.
Regular Chicken Tetrazzini has a lot of butter in it, as much as a 1/2 cup. That would be 40 points just for the butter!
I ended up skipping the butter and I didn’t even miss it.
Instead of using regular cream of chicken condensed soup I used 98% fat free cream of chicken condensed soup. That saved 14 points!
Replacing regular sour cream with fat free sour cream saved another 32 points!
I didn’t have to make too many other changes to the recipe after that.
This lightened up Chicken Tetrazzini is 7 points per serving for blue and purple, 8 points for green.
