Tex-Mex Tacos al Carbon

Tex-Mex Tacos al Carbon by myra byanka

Use marinated steak, skirt steak or flank steak (my fave) for these grilled beef tacos. Serve with warm flour or corn tortillas. If you like beef well-done, spring for rib-eye, as flank and skirt steak will toughen. Suggested Condiments: grilled scallions sour cream guacamole pico de gallo shredded lettuce shredded…

Italian Pot Roast

Italian Pot Roast by myra byanka

Delicious, easy prep pot roast that is sometimes prepared with Barolo wine. At $30.00 - 80.00 per 750 ml, it's too expensive for me. Plus, the tannins can be a problem. Substitute Barolo with another Italian wine like dolcetto d'Alba, Barbera, Chianti, or a use a California merlot or cabernet sauvignon. Serve with noodles or…

Oh Boy, Skinny Taco Night

Oh Boy, Skinny Taco Night by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

Ok, I admit it…I just love the original crunchy tacos at Taco Bell. Although small in size, they are quite high in fat and not very healthy due to the fatty beef, regular cheese and shredded iceberg lettuce… I decided to try and recreate the same taste but make it a whole lot skinnier. First off, I’m using very lean beef and draining…

Italian Beef & Mushroom Stir-Fry with Pasta by Salad Foodie

A fast and tasty dinner for nights when dinner has to get to the table pronto. Start with beef stir fry from the market and save having to partially freeze and slice a beef steak. Packaged fresh sliced mushrooms and grape tomatoes are a market convenience too.

Here’s a wonderfully delicious, lean brisket recipe to make for the holidays. Although a very traditional main course dish to serve for Passover, you could also make it for Easter, instead of the usual ham. The key to making it skinny is to ask your butcher for a lean cut and trim the fat before cooking. All the other ingredients come…

Texas Smoked Brisket for Beginners

Texas Smoked Brisket for Beginners by myra byanka

I've been smoking brisket for years, feeling that finishing it off in the oven was heresy. No telling how much carbon monoxide I've huffed, and so I have given in and developed a process that works well for me, and should for the novice brisket cook. I recommend buying an untrimmed, large brisket. Cook it, serve what you want and…
