Ditch the crust and boost your veggie intake with these eggplant "pizzas."

Great Bulgarian recipe for a chilled cucumber soup...

Fajitas

This is a makeover of Ruby Tuesdays Carolina Chicken Salad, with a calorie intake at over 1,000, is no way for any American to eat, there has to be a better way.
I chose to add flavorful, healthier ingredients to pack this "3C Salad" with character, class, and crunch. 3C Salad is quickly becoming a family favorite for lunch.

Low calorie snack the kids will enjoy

Basic Weightloss, build lean muscle , get healthy shake.

Low Fat - High Fiber - High Protein --- I used this as 'stage 3' for increasing fiber intake. Heart healthy recipe!

A delicious pumpkin pie that is also good for you! Great for diabetics and anyone else watching their sugar, starch and carbohydrate intakes.

This is the most basic of the spreads. You can find a variation of this recipe in almost any grocery store, but 95 percent of them are made with either olive oil or tahini (sesame paste), which pushes up the fat content. Your best bet is to take three minutes and make a batch on Sunday that will last you for the week.

Fool proof version of the yummy green monster smoothie

Delicious, tropical, Thai dessert... easy and simple to make!

This is so flavorful and tasty it doesn't need all the bacon and cheese but is just as good as a restaurant loaded potato soup!

this is my own seasoning blend for making taco's or fajita's...I always have these spices naturally on hand.. and will NEVER go back to store bought.

I like to eat these Sweet Potato "Fries" with a sandwich. It's a healthy way to eat "fries"

This lower-calorie rice swap can be used under a sauce or as the base for a dish such as fried rice or rice salad.

The tomatoes are getting ripe and I can never have enough ways to use them! A different take on pizza. Not something to eat everyday, due to the high sodium count but, for a nice treat .....YUM!!! I served this with a nice green salad for a light lunch or dinner.

A quick easy filling meal that will satisfy the whole family.

I LOVE chicken & dumplings so when I found this I added my own spin to it and lowered the fat and calories. This is the best chicken and dumplings I've ever had which is amazing since I'm never satisfied with my cooking! You can have a full cup of this hearty comfort food for only 284 calories and 3.8 grams of fat! The sodium could be reduced if homemade biscuits are used instead of the canned biscuits, but if sodium isn't a problem this is a very fast and easy way to make chicken & dumplings!

This is so good, it tastes like 1000 calories..you'll never know you're eating low calorie. The zucchini should be julienned very thin, like spaghetti.

Absolutely delicious - a hit with everyone in our family, dieter, diabetic or not!

Yummy asparagus baked with Parmesan and olive oil!

I invented this when I was too sick to want to eat but needed some nutrition. Its a very flexible recipe, you can substitute with whatever you have on hand!

Not as authentic as Starbucks, but and EASY, inexpensive way to get a nice coffee/chocolate fix without leaving home.
