Continuing on our mission to make our favorite meals healthier and still taste great, we decided to make a "Greek" style wheat pizza. this pizza avg over. 300 calories per slice at pizza places, ours is alot less! and I believe just as good.

Better than cupcakes but just as cute! This is an adaptation of the Pumpkin Muffins recipe that is also super tasty!
Classic stir-fry sauce with spicy undertones. Great as the foundation for a main dish or for dipping dim sum.
This might be a once-per-year recipe, but it sure is a doozy!
I took the original recipe and added lighter ingredients. I loved them and I hope you do too!
Low sugar alternative to the real thing. Great for those of us with a sweet tooth.
Sweet potatoes are a Thanksgiving staple, but I can't tolerate another year of mushy, sticky, marshmallow covered grease. Those vitamin A delivering darlings deserve better than that! So last year, I converted a family favorite into friendlier fare. And it's vegan to boot. (No, the meat-itarians didn't notice either). How about them apples!?
Delicious Persian salad that I always get when I go to restaurants. Cheaper to make it at home and goes with any meal. You might find sumac at any middle eastern store, but if you can't find it leave it out. It just adds an extra tang to the salad.
I use frozen chicken tenders for this easy slow cooker recipe.
This recipe was in the local newspaper one summer. I love crabcakes and really, they do taste a lot like crabcakes. Make sure to drain the zucchini well or they get soggy. Another good way to use up the zucchini.
I adapted this recipe from Women's Health magazine. It is low calorie and delicious!
I love all things kale. When I saw Lacinato Kale (also called Tuscan or Dinosaur kale and Cavolo Nero) on my last trip to the grocery store, I knew I had to buy it and make this dish! I cooked pasta and added it to the dish. My favorites are Bionaturae whole wheat fettuccine and Garofalo whole wheat farfalle. The nutritional value for the pasta is NOT included in the recipe because there are so many varieties, so be sure to include whatever pasta you use as a separate item on your nutrition tracker.
I saw a movie a while back where the main character's mother was frying an egg inside a slice of bread. Looked good, thought I'd try that with lower fat, healthier ingredients.
I took this recipe from http://crockpot365.blogspot.com in order to calculate the nutritional info. High fiber & very tasty. Add cheese and/or sour cream before serving for added flavor. Cheese and sour cream not used towards nutritional info.
