The versatility of this salsa is limitless! Put it on grilled chicken or steak, add it to eggs, or serve with tortilla chips.

This is a recipe that yields approxiamately the same amount as a 1.25 oz packet of commercial seasoning. This is not low sodium, but much better than the packets...

Tapenade is a traditional sauce or condiment from Provence, in the south of France. It adds a punch of flavor for very few calories. You can buy premade tapenade, but you'll spend more money and be consuming more sodium than if you made it at home.

This is awesome, easy to make, and a huge hit at parties when you want to serve something more creative than hummus!

Vegetables are delicious on their own, but this light lemon sauce is a great addition to roasted
or steamed vegetables. I love it over roasted asparagus. Use this in place of Hollandaise
sauce in any recipe. It has all of the tang with much less fat.

This delicious pie makes it's own "crust" while baking. My mother-in-law gave me the recipe.

1/8 of pie = 2 WW points
1/8 of pie = 1/2 vegetable serving

This chili recipe has a unique ingredient, by adding pumpkin (you never know it's there) you add more vitamins and fiber.

Baked potatoes stuffed with seasoned cottage cheese are a lavish low-fat, low-cholesterol, low-sodium treat.

What I like about this method of cooking potatoes, is that you get that roasted potato taste, from the stove. This is convenient, when I need the oven for something else-- plus, I think it's just plain fast!
I use a non-stick skillet with a tight fitting lid-- that way I don't need to use much olive oil.
Sometimes I use small Yukon Gold or red potatoes-- but I love fingerling potatoes that best.

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. ;-)
