Sweet and creamy, peanut butter doesn't always have to be served with jelly.

With "The SparkPeople Cookbook," desserts and treats are part of the plan. Chef Meg slims down favorite sweets, ditching most of the fat and calories--but keeping the flavor. This is a "must-try" recipe!

Faster, cheaper and just as rich and delicious but so much more healthy than the restaurant versions. Try substituting the unsweetened chocolate Almond Breeze almond milk for a chocolately treat.

The perfect way to make mashed potatoes for a family gathering. Can be partially prepared aheaad of time and finished the day of the gathering. Holds well for extended periods of time if you stir periodically to avoid drying around the edges. As a bonus, this version is lower in calories and fats than the traditional version.

This is a really good marinade for pork, chicken or steak. Make sure to use the low sodium "lite" soy sauce to lower the sodium content. Track your meat separately.

Boiled eggs is a misnomer; the best boiled eggs are simmered gently then steeped to keep them tender, not rubbery.

A farily healthy style of chicken wings, these are baked, not fried. You may substitue mild chicken wing sauce for hot if you perfer a hotter tasting wing. You may also increase the Tabasico sauce. If you perfer your wings on the mild side, stick with the recipe the way it is.

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.

Garlic lovers, rejoice! This recipe contains a whopping two heads, but the flavor mellows and sweetens when baked.

A super easy mix to put together and store so you can make muffins easily and for very low cost and calories! I make the mix about once a month and then store it in a big #10 can (the size of a large coffee can) with a lid. On top of the lid I put the directions for making the muffins so that even my children can put them together.

An excellent way to use left-over chicken. Depending on the seasoning chosen, the burgers can be a spicy as you like. For a milder flavor, substitute ketchup for the taco seasoning.
