Homemade Ranch Dressing and Dip

Homemade Ranch Dressing and Dip by myra byanka

This delicious dressing and dip (e.g. crudités, chicken wings) takes some prep time, but is so much better than bottled dressing, which has, to me, and unpleasant preservative aftertaste.

Skinny Matzo Ball Soup for Passover or Anytime

Skinny Matzo Ball Soup for Passover or Anytime by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

I bet you never thought matzo ball soup could be made skinny! The soup itself is usually low in calories and fat but matzo balls are loaded with chicken fat and made with several eggs. Not my skinny ones! Here I’m using just 1 tablespoon of canola oil and 2 healthy Eggland’s Best eggs. These mini matzo balls are so light and…

Bread and Butter Pickles

Bread and Butter Pickles by Veronica Gantley

Well, it is that time of year. What to do with all those leftover cucumbers from your garden. Why you make bread and butter pickles of course. These I try to give as Christmas presents in a basket.

Here’s a classic deli sandwich turned into a bite-sized appetizer. I love serving these whenever I’m having company over or even as a fun lunch. They would be terrific to serve while watching football, too! These little gems are so delicious and simple to make. You can prep them in advance and pop them in the oven, just before…

Loaded Baked Potato Salad

Loaded Baked Potato Salad by Genet

Loaded baked potatoes go great with any type of grilled meat or seafood. But pairing the two on a plate can be a challenge, especially when you’re having to split your time between the kitchen and the deck or if you’re grilling away from home. A delicious alternative is to make this Loaded Baked Potato Salad. It has all the glorious…
