This recipe comes from Mexico. The first time I ate it no-one told me what I was eating. I ate 3 tostadas before anyone would tell me what it was made of. When they told me I would have never tried it had I known, and I would have missed out on a favorite dish of mine and my grandmas.

It may sound like it's unhealthy and scary, but it really is a safe and healthy. I've been eating it for years and never gotten sick.

I like these because they are a complete meal-in-one. Meat, vegetable and a little starch all wrapped up in each bundle.

This recipe makes up quicker than most when using a pressure cooker but it can be baked in the oven or in a Dutch oven on top of the stove.

There is some brown rice in it but the percentage of carbs is low and the protein is high. Ground turkey could be substituted for one or both of the meats but the nutrition information would need to be changed.

There are many different kinds of stuffed cabbage recipes originating from many countries. This is more like the Polish-type (pronounced go-wum-ki) and is simpler than others. If your lifestyle is like mine, simple is better!

Cookbook creator says: Instead of Splenda ("sucralose"= sugar that has been gassed with CHLORINE = BAD!!) substitute stevia (all natural, healthy, zero glycemic index).

Cookbook creator says: Bake 400 degrees for 30 minutes. If re-using the raw chicken marinade, be sure to boil it to get rid of salmonella from the raw bird. Or make extra marinade that's not used to actually marinade the chicken for pouring over the cooked chicken. Substitute canned green chilis for the jalapeno.

It's no surprise that American cooks have adopted Asian peanut sauce as their own. The tantalizing balance of creaminess and heat has universal appeal.

Pizza is one of my favorite foods, and the sweet sauce at Papa John's is my all-time favorite. My viewpoint is, if you're going to make it at home, don't make it "just as good," make it better! So I'm remaking a medium Papa John's pie with pineapple, onion and bacon(BACON!!!). Fresh homemade sauce and premium ingredients make this recipe more than worth the calories, and still trimmer than the fast food original!

If you've never cooked with lemongrass, try it out in this yummy main course.

My all-time FAVORITE comfort food is my mom's chicken paprikash. She makes the chicken by dredging it in flour and frying it, then makes these awesome dumplings (similar to gnocci) and a sour cream gravy to go over everything. I always used to pick that for my birthday dinners! Anyways, here is my "light" version of my favorite comfort meal. It tastes better than it looks, I promise :)

This Hungarian dish is easy and delicious. The original recipe said it is for "4" but I found that depending on the size of your chicken it really makes enough for "6" or 3 days of meals or leftovers!
