Very Good 4.3/5

This recipe technically makes a single serving, but it's a generous one by my standards (about 15 shrimp) It's so quick and easy, but packs some serious spice! My measurements in the kitchen are never really exact and yours don't have to be either. You can adjust to make it as hot (or not) as you like.

"This is one of my favorites because it is easy, fast and simple and versatile. If you like brown rice, I recommend using it in this and all recipes. It takes a bit longer to cook but is worth the wait, for both nutrition and taste. There is an instant brown rice on the market now, too."

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.

Garden Fresh Lasagna
Very Good 4.5/5

I love rich, cheesy lasagna, but in the summer when vegetables are at their peak, cheese overwhelms the dish. Adding plenty of fresh vegetables to your regular lasagna for a healthy, light summer supper. Omit any vegetables you don't like, and swap for what you've got in your fridge. (Add spinach or any other green, more fresh tomatoes, mushrooms, chopped and steamed broccoli or asparagus... the possibilities are endless.)

A delicious, fast and easy soup, full of vitamins from the leeks and potato skins. The batch size is huge- a good family dinner with leftovers or, in my case, several busy days' worth of dinner. Easily downsized- just make sure your amount of potatoes and leeks are about equal, and use enough stock to cover them and add milk to taste.

Note: if vegan is desired, just skip the milk. The soup can be very creamy, especially if slightly less stock is used.
