This soup is so tasty. It's so simple and makes 5 1-cup servings. Perfect to warm you up on a cool day. The garlic is the best part so don't skimp. You can always skip the chives. Grated parmesan is a nice topper, too.
I love tapenade, and was amazed when I discovered how easy it is to make. I vary the incredients depending on what I have on-hand, but the principal is the same...salty, savory, a little oil. To keep this lighter, I use less oil and add water as needed to help thin the tapenade.
For a more mellow garlic flavor, toast the garlic on the stove first.
From the Whole Foods Market website.
Makes about 1 cup
Serve this dressing just as you would a traditional Caesar dressing and we bet no one will notice the difference.
I use Penzey's Balti Seasoning in this recipe. Here's the ingredient list if you're curious (you'll see why I let them do the mixing!):
coriander, garlic, ginger, cumin, dundicut chilies, Ceylon cinnamon, brown mustard seeds, cardamom, clove, fennel, fenugreek, charnushka (kalonji, black onion seed), ajwain, star anise, black cardamom, cilantro, anise seed and bay leaf
Combine 2 cups of corn (fresh or frozen), zucchini (chop or dice), 2 cups chopped tomatoes and mint (fresh 2 tablespoons chopped). Combine 2 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp honey, 1/2 tsp salt and pepper (coarsely ground to taste), whisk. Pour over salad and mix gently. Serve with arugula or lettuce. Also great as a salsa or as a bed for grilled chicken or fish.
Makes 7 servings, 1/2 cup batter each (about 3 pancakes 3 inches in diameter). These are great even without syrup, and I pack them in a lunch for my kids with a separate container of plain yogurt mixed with a little maple syrup for them to dip the pancakes in.
This comes from the Healthy Calendar Diabetic Cookbook I just double the pasta because otherwise the broccoli takes over the dish.

An earthy, simple, filling stew perfect for a winter's night. It also happens to be loaded with 8 grams of fiber, 23 grams of protein, 20% of your daily iron and calcium needs, and over 100% of your daily Vitamin A and C needs! Serve with a crusty roll and a grating of low fat cheddar!
This bar is a great start for a high-fiber, high-protein, vitamin and omega-rich breakfast, or a great satisfying snack. I like to eat these with a piece of fruit and a glass of milk an hour or so before going on a run, or when I'm running out the door with a travel mug full of coffee.
A delicious and healthy alternative to the same old sandwich...and it's vegetarian friendly!
A recipe from Jessica Seinfeld's cookbook. This was a major hit with my toddler. The recipe calls for part-skim ricotta instead of cottage cheese, but I had to sub because I didn't have any on hand. Very yummy and satisfying.
I usually make this with some low fat balsamic dressing. Sometimes I add or subtract vegetables, depending on what's available. If you would like to make it lower in fat, omit the almonds or the feta. Delicious on it's own.
Great for leaving in the fridge for when you're hungry in a hurry.
