Garlic lovers, rejoice! This recipe contains a whopping two heads, but the flavor mellows and sweetens when baked.

Warm meat, gooey cheese, and grilled vegetables--what's not to love about a Philly cheese steak? How about the more than 1,600 calories in each one! This take on the classic skimps on fat but not flavor.

Easy and simple to prepare. Plus it is lowfat. The original recipe was found on Crock Pot Recipes. Since I cook for 1, I substituted 1 whole chicken for 3 skinless thighs and added red bell pepper.

I got this recipe from a Low Carb Crockpot cookbook and "tweaked" it for lower cholesterol and sodium content. STILL high in sodium, though!

I threw this together with ingredients I had on hand since I couldn't get out to the store because of the snow and it was a hit with my DH and picky daughter. Delicious! Reminded me of a Cuban dish I had in Navarre, Florida while visiting a friend.

Based on a Bon Appetit recipe from January 2004. Don't let the amount of garlic scare you - the low, slow cooking mellows it to a delicious, buttery flavor. Low fat and low sodium, so easy and so flavorful. Serve with sauteed spinach or asparagus and mashed red potatoes.

A traditional Spanish cook would find it odd to make a paella based on quinoa, but the concept works well. More important, it tastes good.

Chef Meg added flavor with parsley and capers to cut the salt, reduced the cooking time and used hearty plum tomatoes instead of canned.

This is a lighter take on the classic Italian preparation of Chicken Cacciatore (or Chicken Hunter Style). Our made-over version uses white meat rather than dark and less oil to cut almost 60 calories per serving and reduce the fat and sodium of the traditional recipe.

This meatloaf has the best of both worlds: a great crust and a moist interior! The trick is lining your slow cooker and creating a water bath. Trust me, it's worth the effort!
