Grilled Whole Fish Adobado by John Spottiswood

Skinny Mexican Style Chicken and Cornbread Casserole by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

My husband and I love this main course casserole so much, we ended up eating it 3 days in a row! The skinny for 1 serving, 323 calories, 8 grams of fat and 8 Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS. It’s a real cinch to make, freezes great and only needs a side salad to serve with it! Easy, right and did I mention that it’s absolutely DELICIOUS??

Bacon Crusted Texas Brisket by Robyn Savoie

Tex-Mex Chalupas with Quick, Easy Taco Filling by Marlin Rinehart

Grilled Fish Tacos by Salad Foodie

Tangy avocado salsa and grilled fish in a warm tortilla make for a much healthier fish taco than the usual restaurant variety. This recipe is based on one from Bill Phillips Eating for Life, though I had to sub a few ingredients due to what I had on hand. Too cold to grill outdoors, I used the counter top grill. No swordfish or tuna,…
