This is a much healthier alternative to regular meatballs. They're also pretty delicious. They taste great with spaghetti and sauce. I prefer to serve them with Trader Joe's Organic Whole Wheat Spaghetti and Trader Joe's Garlic Marinara Sauce. Sometimes the mix can become a little squishy and so we just use it as "meat sauce" instead of rolling into balls. If you wait long enough for moisture to evaporate, making balls should not be an issue. As meatballs they are even better the next day. Me and my boyfriend (who is vegan) adapted this recipe from the recipe here: http://www.grouprecipes.com/96989/red-lent

Usually if a dessert does not have chocolate in one way or another I am not attracted to it. These lemon bars are a lovely exception.
Variation on a recipe that was quite 'posh' and 'trendy' in England for a while... Successfully tested on hubby, kids and whole family, and a steady favourite with all.
Don't let the calorie count scare you -- this has about 800 FEWER calories than Olive Garden's alfredo, and provides everything you need for the perfect, balanced meal, loaded with whole grains, lean protein, and fresh veggies.
Plus, Alfredo is really sexy -- hence the serving for two!
I was tought this dish when I was young, this is a very garlicy dish. Makes 6 servings.
I came up with this because I didn't want to make my house really hot from the oven and I didn't have any lasagne noodles.
Delicious, low on calories and high in protein. A family favorite!
I find that using frozen chicken breasts keeps them moist and makes it more convenient so you can still make this meal even if you forgot to thaw something for dinner!
Lemon Juice and capers add zing to this vitamin and protein-rich salad
Being Giada's recipe I'm not sharing except with you Kathryn.
The only thing I changed was she had 2 teaspoons of salt, I used one and it was good. She said a pound of tomatoes - I didn't really count but put in 8 - looks right.
Homemade, whole wheat breadsticks that taste amazing, you know exactly what's in them, and you can eat them without guilt! Best of all, they don't take long - no waiting forever for the dough to rise. (Also makes amazing pizza crust!)
Incredibly moist and flavorful way to eat tuna...a change from most oriental styles. Goes very nicely with Italian vegetable bake from this site (add a little balsamic to this) .
This is a wonderful little treat that is easy to throw together and can be altered to fit anyones taste.
This is our attempt at enjoying pizza and still trying to mind our mission. Hope you enjoy.
My mom taught me this one. It's hard to eat just one, then hard to not eat them all!!
This is truly a cook once and serve three times... I doubled this recipe and ended up with enough sauce to make lasagna three separate times (this recipe is the doubled version)... I assembled the recipe and divided the remaining sauce into two gallon ziplock bags and froze for a future date.
