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.

Zucchini boats stuffed with veggies and bread crumbs. I like to make this for dinner/ lunch, but it can also be made as an appetizer. To do this you can cut the zucchini boats into smaller pieces after they have cooked. You can also substitute vegetables and herbs of your choice in this recipe. You can use cooking spray on the baking pan in place of the olive oil.
The picture is what they look like right before they enter the oven.

I love Chili's Southwestern Eggrolls. They have so much tasty stuff in them, but I hate the fact they are deep fried. I added more beans and corn and then put them in the broiler for crunch.
These are great made ahead of time and *frozen for a quick meal or a fun snack for the big game. I make a double batch so I can freeze some for later.

One of my biggest fast-food temptations are greasy fried egg rolls from places like Panda Express. I made over this healthy version using lean chicken and fresh vegetables. Baking the egg rolls instead of frying them saves even more calories and these don't disappoint! They're flavor packed and I can make them often without feeling guilty. I serve them at parties, or for dinner with a side of brown rice. (Un-Chained Recipe Contest Entry- Fast Food Category)

NOTE: The high salt content is due to the pickling process. Most of the salt is rinsed off!

Also, the instructions here are for steaming the dumplings, but I also had success pan-frying them in just enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the skillet. Cover and cook in a single layer until the bottoms are deeply golden, flip using a metal spatula, cover and cook until the other side is browned.

Healthy food, high protein and fiber pop's into a great snack!

I make tasty nut-free trail mixes for healthy snacks. In order to best stabilize blood sugar and provide lasting energy, snacks should be a balance of protein and carbohydrates. Conveniently, this trail mix packs both, along with a healthy dose of omega 3 fatty acids, vitamin C, vitamin E, antioxidants, fiber, and other vitamins and minerals. I like goji berries because they are lower in sugar than other dried fruit, good for those of us that need to watch our sugar intake.

Don't tolerate some of the ingredients I used? No worries! The recipe is really flexible! Remove whatever ingredients you don't tolerate, and add whatever you else you'd like - you can't mess it up. Make it your own. Crunchy, full of flavor, and loaded with nutrients, this trail mix is a lifesaver. Where can it come in handy?
