Chicken Lasagna Cupcakes

After trying the Lasagna Cupcakes from Emily Bites that I posted yesterday, I started thinking about what if I made them with chicken? The experiment payed off with cupcakes that I feel are even better that the originals. I decided to slow cook the chicken in pasta sauce before shredding it which kept the chicken moist while it baked in the cupcakes. The recipe makes 16 cups at 4 Points Plus each. I made them with a side salad and I had more than enough food for dinner.

Bon Appetit!

Ingredients

1 lb Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, Frozen
32 Wonton Wrappers
8 oz Fat Free Ricotta Cheese
3 oz Parmesan Cheese
1 jar plus 2 c Pasta Sauce
8 oz 2% Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

Directions

  1. Place frozen Chicken Breasts and 1 jar of the Pasta Sauce in the Crock Pot and cook for 3-4 hours.
