Iced soup - refreshing for summer.

An EZPZ grass roots nacho that will satisfy without the added calories.

Simple bean soup

From Oxygen Magazine an easy to make, tasty salad that keeps well and is great served cold.

Super low cal but still tasty!

Cabbage & carrots in a onion vinegrette.

For a protein kick, top with sliced chicken breast from Joy's Spicy Grilled Chicken breast recipe.

Spicy Apricot Glaze from The Plan

This is a great alternative to a traditional pasta salad. I estimated on amounts and serving size, as I tend to not measure and use a heavy hand with veggies additions. Tastes great cold and looks great on display (very colorful!).

Krissyswim16's Oat Pancakes (1 serving). Nice and high in protein.

Tuna salad, to put on a sandwich

Can be made into buns or other shapes

For real veggie eaters I make spinach pie instead of quiche. More veggies! Also good using broccoli & ham, broccoli & chopped chicken or shredded cabbage and 1 pork sausage chopped.

By using whole wheat flour and regular flour, you get a nice mix of both. Add more/less cinnamon depending on taste. Great when served with warmed apples, blueberries, strawberries, bananas, or just maple syrup and butter.

Using harvest squash create a new filling comfort food.

great for cold days or nights.
