Trying to duplicate Paneras high sugar high fat recipe

This light, tasty dish is a great summer side. You can adapt this for other veggies, but these were in my garden.

This French toast recipe is fast and easy, but also good for you! Each serving, 2 slices plus bananas and sugar-free syrup, is less than 250 calories! Add some scrambled eggs with veggies or turkey sausage for a healthy yet very filling breakfast or brunch.

You could use berries, peaches or apples instead of the bananas; just use whatever you have on hand in your kitchen. You could also use 1 tsp. of fat-free cream cheese per serving in lieu of the sugar free syrup. Layer one slice of toast, cream cheese, fruit and the other slice of French toast for a semi-stuffed French toast.

These a delightful little mini scones or biscuits with a crunchy outside and a soft, tender inside. The green color from the finely chopped spinach makes them a perfect treat for St. Patrick's Day, or anytime you want a little green in your life. Kids would love these small green treats!

This is a yummy and moist take on traditional cornbread. Fabulous with Spanish or Mexican food, or for a twist with Southern (US) food.

This is a great summer treat when everyone's garden has an abundance of zucchini. A tasty, savory way to add veggies to any diet.

I make this in my Hamilton Beach Single Serve Blender and take with me to work. I'm not a breakfast person, but it's very important to get a healthy breakfast! This smoothie has two kinds of fruit, non-fat yogurt for some good protein and is very filling.

If you want, you could add a scoop of fiber powder or protein powder if you'd like.

I pour this into a car mug that has a hole to drink out of, which is where I stick my straw! This is my breakfast most morning. You can also add protein power or fiber power once it's about 1/2 blended to add extra nutrition. Use whatever fruit is in season or on sale at the grocery store!

Sweet potatoes just aren't for Thanksgiving anymore! A sweet side dish that doesn't blow your diet.

This tart and spicy cilantro lime rice is easy to make and adds a new flavor to your table! Pairs well with Mexican or southwest food, or just as a new flavor twist for recipes calling for rice.

For the best taste, make this a few hours ahead of time to allow all of the flavors to meld together.

This is a great breakfast dish but we also love it for breakfast for dinner! My husband loves this dish, and it's also easy enough for him to make!

This makes a pretty puffy and egg-y French toast. If you prefer yours differently, reduce the ratio of egg to milk to fit your tastes. You can use other fruits, too, such as apples, berries or whatever you like. To add a bit of crunch (but also more calories, so beware!), add 1/4 cup of pecans and 1/4 cup of toasted coconut with the sliced bananas.

Can only take the cred for sharing! I found this on Recipezaar and it sounded so good I had to share.

Everyone seems to fall in love with this creamy slaw. Note, I am using Napa Cabbage instead of regular because it has the lowest carb count! Good to know!
