"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."

Yum! Try this quick and easy thin crust pizza.

This is a fantastic, tasty and healthy tuna melt similar to what you would receive in a restaurant.

This Mexican pizza is a tasty alternative to traditional pizza. Add grilled chicken or cooked shrimp to change this up!

Quick and nutritious, this zesty take on pasta salad is a family favorite. Garnish with fresh herbs and black olives.

I can't get enough of this easy recipe; it's ready in 15 minutes!The still-runny egg yolk adds a creaminess to the sauce and perfectly mixes with the spinach.

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.)

This recipe sings of the fall and early winter harvest. Take advantage of the local farmers market and buy whatever root vegetables they have. I like a bite to the vegetables, so I drizzle a small amount of balsamic vinegar over the vegetables while they are still hot.
This side dish is quite affordable: about 60 cents a serving for the vegetables!

Cookbook creator says: Could be entree with protein added or plain for lunch?. Calorie count based on using 4%cottage cheese. Sounds interesting and easy. Maye more for lunch?

The perfect soup to warm your belly on a cold night or soothe you when you're sick.

Cookbook creator says: I usually load on the veggies. I spray the flat out with a cooking spray, add a little garlic powder, and bake it plain for about 6-7 minute to get it really crispy, then I add my sauce, cheese, and toppings, and broil it until the cheese melts.
