yummy

You'll never believe that this creamy, rich dish doesn't have any potatoes! It's also high in protein for a side with 10 grams per serving!

This is a cake-type cobbler. You can use any fruit, fresh or frozen. My favorites are peaches, berries, and-- on the rare occasions when I can find them-- sour cherries.

My husband and I have been having fun turning our old fatty favorites in healthful options, and this one tastes even better than the original.

I am not one who measures my ingredients a lot - I am more of the cook who chops and dumps into the pot!!!! So I apologize in advance if I am a little off with the amounts/measurements!!!

I buy a lot of my produce fresh from a local stand - so for the green beans, I buy them in the green cardboard box like container. I am guessing there is about 4 cups in there?!?!

This recipe can always be adjusted to taste and seasoning it is up to your imagination!!!

I love cheesecake so I took several recipes and came up with this version. It is dense and tastes great, even my sons liked it. Yummy alone or with raspberries on top. Sugar free and low cal/fat. Makes 16 servings.

Great start in the morning

Yummy classic taste, diet-friendly!

This can be a side dish or a dessert!

This is a tasty low-fat, low-sodium alternative to the traditional fried chicken. This recipe has 10 fat grams and 172.6 mg of sodium. Now compare that to the fat and sodium that is in a regular fried chicken thigh!!!

Listed below is the approximate nutrition values for one traditional fried chicken thigh. Note: The calories, fat and sodium are higher if the chicken is extra crispy (those are the numbers at the higher end of the range):
Cal = 280-360
Fat = 20-27 grams
Sodium = 730-830 mg.

This a remade grilled cheese and french fry meal from any typical restaurant. I love grilled cheese but it typically has no nutritional value as it's just bread and cheese! The beans in this re-made grilled cheese add fiber and protein. The brown mustard adds a glue to cheese and gives the sandwich an unexpected tang! The sweet potatoes are much better than normal white potatoes and they are roasted in the oven instead of deep fried. The nutritional information will change based on the brands you use - I am entering the brands I used obviously!

FYI - I've also made this with plain beans that I spiced up myself with a little salsa and mexican spices and then mashed. Feel free to do that if you don't have or like refried beans!

Red, Hot and Blue serves a dish called Idaho Pig, with Pulled Pork for a total of 1022.61 calories per serving and that is without vegetables. Due to my allergies, it is one of the few meals that I can eat out and that is almost a full day's worth of calories for me. So I am remaking that recipe to a healthier portion size and with some healthier options. It is a great way to use the left over Thanksgiving turkey.

Bread stuffed with a warm chocolatey/cheesy filling. Adapted from Hungry Girl 1-2-3 Recipe Book. The only change I made was swapping out a little cream cheese in place of some of the ricotta.

This recipe was featured on Dr Oz. The only thing changed was that I used three tablespoons of margarine with canola oil instead of 2 tablespoons of margarine and 1 tablespoon of canola oil.

a real creamy way to eat this great stuff!

These entered my life from the inside of a Land O' Lakes butter carton when I was probably about seven. Most people now know them as Magic Cookie Bars, but I retained the name my family has always known them by. We never used coconut because I'm allergic to it. I'm sure it could be vastly lightened up by using fat-free graham crackers and sweetened condensed milk, but I'm posting it the way I've made it for years, and will leave the lightening up to others who haven't known it full fat the way I do! I've listed it at 16 servings for an 8x8 baking pan. Can't believe we used to cut it in just 9!
