Chowder is one of my favorite foods. I altered my usual version to creat a lower calorie, lower fat version that is still very yummy! It also freezes and reheats well so you can enjoy this corn chowder for weeks after making it.

Garden Fresh Lasagna
Very Good 4.5/5

I love rich, cheesy lasagna, but in the summer when vegetables are at their peak, cheese overwhelms the dish. Adding plenty of fresh vegetables to your regular lasagna for a healthy, light summer supper. Omit any vegetables you don't like, and swap for what you've got in your fridge. (Add spinach or any other green, more fresh tomatoes, mushrooms, chopped and steamed broccoli or asparagus... the possibilities are endless.)

If you are wanting a lighter version of pizza that you can fix at home, this recipe is for you! Yummy!

You can also add black olives or thinly sliced tomato pieces. You might have to change baking time if you add more toppings, though. If you do not care for artichoke hearts, you could adapt by using spinach, instead.

Incredible! 5.0/5

I made this soup after trying a similar one at a restaurant. Theirs had fewer tomatoes, no beans and white rice. I wanted to add more nutrition, so I added spinach, a green pepper and more tomatoes, and I use white meat chicken instead of dark. Beans and brown rice add fiber. This new soup is a good compromise of taste and time
