This is a variation of a Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user TWINMOM143 - Skillet white beans, spinach, & tomatoes

I personally do not like the texture of beans over pasta, so I turned the beans into a sauce. I also used fresh tomatoes instead of canned.

I modified this from the Ellen Show (10-05-10). Made it for the Superbowl and put it out with the "other" queso. It ran out first. It's a great faux cheese for nachos. The uses are endless. You can add anything to it... Don't forget to add your chips to your tracker. ;-)

Serve with a side of brown rice and you've got a tasty meal.

The molasses gives this low sodium slow-cooker curry a sweet but savory kick and a good potassium and iron boost.
It's a large recipe as I've taken to batch cooking and freezing things in single serving containers to take with us for lunch.

This is a vegetable stir fry for one person. When I make this for my family, I cut up all kinds of fresh veggies and stir fry each person's plate individually. That way each person gets to grab the veggies they like the most and leave off something they don't care for. This also helps the veggies stay crisp cooked. When I do a large family sized stir fry some of the veggies overcook and get soggy. I hate that so now I do it this way.

I usually make 2 stir fry sauces so folks get to choose that too.

The recipe for the Teriyaki Sauce with a red Thai chili sauce in the ingredients is an amount for 1 person's stir fry. I will include amounts for a family at the end of the cooking instructions.

**Dry Tofu is included in this recipe. It is found in most Natural food stores or Chinese Markets. It makes stir fries so much easier because you don't have to marinate or pre-cook it. (It is sometimes called Smoked Tofu. I have used both.)

This recipe sings of the fall and early winter harvest. Take advantage of the local farmers market and buy whatever root vegetables they have. I like a bite to the vegetables, so I drizzle a small amount of balsamic vinegar over the vegetables while they are still hot.
This side dish is quite affordable: about 60 cents a serving for the vegetables!

Butternut squash helps slim down this macaroni and cheese. You can't taste it, and it boosts the nutritional value of the dish!

This is a great low calorie portable lunch or dinner. On cold days I pop it into the school microwave for 15 seconds- which melts the parmesan and makes a nice warm treat! Add some jalapenos or pepper to spice it up!

I call this soup pseudo-sophisticated because of how gourmet it tastes, even though it is one of the easiest things to make! I got this recipe off of www.vegweb.com and I absolutely love it. I have made some modifications but its basically the same. This soup has AMAZING fiber and protein values.
