This dish inspired by Costa Rican spices seems exotic, but it uses spices and ingredients you already have around the house: coffee, cocoa and cinnamon. You'll wonder why you've been relegating these flavorings to dessert!

Use as a side with coffee-cocoa rubbed pork tenderloin.

These bean cakes are yummy and great for you. Served with the salsa, it makes a very colorful and festive presentation. I serve these with a lite side salad. Plenty of protein and fiber. Even my meat loving hubby loves this meal.

What makes these better? Peanut butter that's nothing but peanuts (no sweetener, no salt), a little extra egg & chocolate chips, and baking powder. They come darker than the regular flourless PB cookies, with a more peanutty/brown sugar taste.

My kids never complain about eating both beans and greens in one meal when they're served alongside rich, slow-cooked pork.

Technically this is a crustless quiche, but the addition of flour makes for a delicious crusty bottom and sides.

Cookbook creator says: Crockpot variation!

Sweet potatoes and bananas combine to make a flavorful low fat custard.

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 basically pancake mix in a muffin tin, with a bite of a sausage link cooked inside. We REALLY liked these. ( I saw the commercial for that Pancake Puff pan, and got the idea from that. Why spend $20 when you can throw it into a muffin tin!)

This is quick and easy burrito I make often, specially if I have to eat on the go. I happen to use a few strips of last night left over pork tenderloin but you can use just about any meat you like. I added an egg, because it was breakfast, but it also makes a great snack (no eggs will take off 70 calories)
