"This is another easy, versatile recipe that I use often. I call for canned beans in my recipes, but I like the taste of home cooked beans. If you have a crock pot, there is no reason why you can't have home cooked beans too."

When my mother told me she makes this recipe for lunch every day I didn't think it sounded too delicious. But then she made it for me and... yummy... the combination of flavors is surprisingly delicious and very healthy! Eat as a snack or in larger portions for lunch.

Black beans, sweet potatoes and greens are spiced up and baked in egg roll wrappers to create burritos that are heavy on taste and light on calories. (Feel free to change this recipe with what you've got in the fridge. No sweet potatoes? Try zucchini or butternut squash. Swap kale for spinach, Swiss chard or your favorite green! Instead of black beans, try kidney, pinto or garbanzo beans.)

Mince garlic (do not chop broccoli).
1. Coat large skillet with nonfat cooking spray and heat over high flame.

2. Saute onions and garlic 1 to 2 minutes, or until onions begin to soften.

3. Add beef and saute until beef begins to brown.

4. Add broccoli and reduce heat to medium. Continue to cook until broccoli begins to soften.

5. While broccoli and beef are cooking, whisk together flour, milk and worcestershire sauce in a small bowl.

6. Once broccoli is cooked, pour sauce mixture over beef and bring to a simmer.

7. Slowly, sprinkle cheese over beef mixture and mix well. Once cheese is melted, turn off heat and allow to sit for 2-3 minutes before serving.

*Can add rice or noodles or eat just as prepared*

Butternut squash helps slim down this macaroni and cheese. You can't taste it, and it boosts the nutritional value of the dish!

"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."

Even if you are new to beets or have a solid history of anti-beet sentiment, give this traditional Russian salad a try! Beets are a good source of vitamin C and potassium.

This is my regular pasta salad with 6 ounces of pepperoni and romano cheese. Pepperoni adds mostly fat, salt, and a little protein, so feel free to leave it out. I think it adds something extra to the flavor as long as it's consumed in moderation.

Any beans may be used in place of the pinto beans. See the basic pasta salad for a list.
