Last week I was approached by Tuttorosso Tomatoes to talk about their newest promotion - #CelebrateYourTradition - where you can enter to win a prize package of $550 just for sharing one of your family's favorite traditions and who inspired it! Since I have already shared my Dad's Simple Spaghetti Recipe (in which I also use Tuttorosso Tomatoes) I decided to make one of Mike's favorites - Chicken Parmesan.

And since we are both wanting to eat healthier I made just a few small adjustments to bring down the calories, without giving up any of the flavor. What we ended up with was something all four of us agreed was the best meal to come out of my kitchen.

This meal was loved so much I know it is going to be a new "tradition" that we will do around here often. And since it is healthier than restaurant style chicken parmesan - we can feel better about making it from home.

I can also attest to the fact that it is even better the next day - as I am sitting here having the leftovers for lunch! And according to my calculations in MyFitnessPal, each serving is less than 320 calories. Talk about Guilt Free Deliciousness!
