This is a hearty, tomato-based chicken soup that calls for root vegtables to lend an earthy goodness. Experiment with the spices to adjust it to your preference for spiciness.

I found that dried hummus mix, while disgusting when made into hummus, can be a tasty addition to meatballs! These can be jazzed up with more spices and sauces, but I kept the recipe plain as the "base recipe". Enjoy!

This is just a little something I whipped up to eat over brown rice. Surprise surprise! It is easy and delicious, but obviously not for all the time with the high calorie count.

This is a modification of a soup idea form Real SImple magazine, March 2011.

This could be made low-sodium by using low sodium chicken broth. This recipe could easily accommodate additional vegetables, as well.

A yummy treat! My toddlers love this smoothie and don't even know it's good for them!

The surprise is that it's got tofu and spinach in the list of ingredients, and sweetened with honey rather than white sugar.

To amp-up the fiber and omega-3 component, add 1/2 Tbsp. of ground flax seed.

This soup is thick and creamy, like pot pie filling but at a fraction of the fat and calories!

This is a recipe taken from theFix It and Forget It Lightly cookbook. The only modification I have made was, instead of using a hamhock or lean ham, I substitute a ham bone and use the leftover ham in it. This change isn't reflected in the calorie count, since ham-bone isn't an ingredient option.

This is a re-working of the cole slaw recipe from SHELLPRO, because hers was just the dressing. This one includes my variations in the dressing, plus the actual cabbage and carrots that I think make a really good cole slaw.

Incredible! (1 rating)

This recipe is a modification of a recipe I got out of a Publix weekly flyer. It is super easy to assemble, since it's almost all canned stuff. It has a slight kick to it, and SO yummy and filling! This also refrigerates really well, so it's great to take to work the next day for lunch.

If you've never had southern BBQ, this is your chance to make it! I was given this recipe by a woman native to Columbia, South Carolina, and her cooking never fails!
NOTE: this is really more of a treat than a staple, given the high fat content. But a little bit goes a LONG way as a topping for baked potatoes or rice.

these meatballs could be made more lowfat by cutting the sausage in half, increasing the spinach, using all-wheat bread crumbs, and using 3 egg whites instead of 2 beaten eggs.

We love pizza, but hate making the dough, so this is a great compromise for us.

This is an adaptation of a Real SImple recipe from Feb. of 2010. It calls for more ordinary ingredients (cheaper, too!) The dried tomatoes used in this are home-dried, NOt soaked in Olive oil, which may allow for lower fat than listed in the nutritional information.

This is a delicious side to pork loin, turkey, or roast chicken. For those who love cranberries but find the canned sauce too sweet, you will love this one!

Incredible! (1 rating)

This is a very hearty sauce: feel free to add more vegetables or substitute what's growing in your own garden this summer!

These cookies are for Moms who want to give their kids cookies without feeling so guilty about it! They are higher in whole grains and healthy fats, lower in sugar than most other recipes call for, and still delicious!

This is VERY yummy for winter, with much less work than enchiladas. The leftovers are also great as a take-to-work lunch for the next day!

I didn't do these things in my calculations, but using fat-free, low-sodium cream of mushroom soup and low-sodium tomatoes would make this even healthier!

This is a pretty quick dinner to fix, great for a chilly winter's evening! If you can't get spinach, kale or swiss chard would work equally well.

To make this lower in fat, choose NO YOLKS egg noodles, or another low-fat pasta alternative.

This is a yummy one-dish dinner that makes clean-up a snap!

To make this even lower in fat and sodium, use 98% fat free cream of celery, and use low-sodium versions of both kinds of soup. Also, you can always cut the chicken in more pieces and add more rice & vegetables to stretch this dish to feed more people.

Great for a cold winter day! This dish is a favorite because, through the long roasting process, the sweet potato get s all carmelized on the bottom...YUM!

I don't add any salt to this dish, but a little bit of garlic salt would probably be called for.

These are a favorite that I've tried to "healthy up" while keeping it easy to make.

These muffins could have a different fruit substituted easily: cranberries, other types of berries, apples, etc. The spices might just need to be adjusted!

These muffins are hearty and delicious with cream cheese! I feed them to my toddler, because they are a healthy alternative to store-bought muffins or muffin mixes, and he loves them!

This egg salad tastes a little like deviled eggs to me, and is a great filler for a pita, or equally delish on crackers!
