Very Good 4.0/5

This is a classic recipe and one of my favourite soups. Very low calorie and very tasty. Although there's similar recipes here on SP, I like to add some lemon juice for some acidity in what otherwise is a very sweet soup.

This makes 3 /large/ servings.

Incredible! 5.0/5

From Rachael Ray's 30 Minute Meals. She listed this as 4 servings, which would work as a main dish with a salad, but I made it 8 servings as a side dish. Mint is not included in the nutrition information.

A 2-pound whole squash yields about 4 cups of cubes. Look for tomato paste in a tube, so you can use a tablespoon at a time. Serve with cheese toast.

Incredible! 5.0/5

This is the BEST meatless chili I've ever had. I don't remember where we got the recipe, but it cooks up very quick and is great on cold days. The texture of the bulgar completely covers the fact that there's not meat.

My very serious meat eating husband even loves it.

Perhaps it’s the lime dressing, which infuses the dish with flavor without overwhelming it in goo. It could be the quinoa, which has a distinctive nutty taste far superior to white rice and its lamer brethren. Or, maybe it’s the tomatoes, black beans, and scallions, which reminded one friend of "the insides of a really good burrito."
Whatever it is, it’ll make you forget uninspired diet food. :-)

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.)

This simple, nutritious soup can be changed to your liking by making your own broth or switching the types of beans. I used green lentils, but red lentils, and garbanzos are great as well.
