A recipe enjoyed by EVERYONE! (From the popular Australian website and cookbooks, "4 Ingredients")
A hearty meal casserole that satisfies! Trade ground turkey for beef in this recipe to cut a few calories and grams of fat, but I love the real deal.
Forget the canned sauces that no one ever eats. This freshly made cranberry sauce is simple - perfect for the holiday season.
Tangy, sticky chicken drumsticks cook perfectly in the slow cooker, with very little effort. Served with rice or potatoes and a green salad.
A budget version of the rustic Spanish favorite. An herbed-citrus olive pesto adds color and intensifies the flavor.
Serve this comforting Hungarian classic with steamed brown rice and spinach or over whole-wheat egg noodles.
Basic chocolate cookie dough, anything can be added, nuts, candy, chocolate chips, etc. Just be sure to update the calorie count to add whatever you mix in.
This is a fast, easy, and flavorful rendition of a favored food - meat loaf. You buy cheap and common ingredients to prepare a healthy main dish. I generally serve this with a side of steamed broccoli, green beans or mixed veggies.
With 2g of fat and 28g of protein, you can't go wrong!
Maybe I should have called this my "Summer Farmers Market Pasta." It's full of the vegetables I brought home from the farmers market on Saturday. Like many of my recipes, it can be altered based on what you've got on hand. I almost threw in some Swiss chard (my green of choice these days) and some brilliant yellow crookneck squash, but I decided to save those for another day and another dish.
This recipe showcases the freshest, ripest summer tomatoes you can find. The only cooking involved is warming a bit of olive oil, which infuses the herbs and takes the raw edge off the tomato.
I threw this together from what I had in my pantry at the time. With proper planning, I'd use fat-free soup and sour cream. It is delicious as-is, but fat could certainly stand to be cut.
You can put the chicken into the slow cooker while still frozen, so prep time is virtually non-existent! A great choice to throw in before bed for lunch at work or in the morning for that night's dinner.
This recipe calls for two pounds of chicken, also because it was what I had available (three large breasts), but would make a great meal with just one pound, too.
I served this along with brown rice and black beans. Tasty!
This is my favorite meatloaf recipe ever! The Quinoa adds extra protein and vitamins. To me the Raisins are an absolute must!
