Low Calorie and Delish, Coq au Vin by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

This is a wonderful low calorie and low fat version of the French classic chicken dish. The French pronunciation is kɔk o vɛ̃. It’s so easy and straightforward. I’ve served it many times and everyone loves it. My version uses white wine instead of red wine, which creates a lighter tasting sauce and is cooked on the stove top instead…

Crispy Chicken-Kiwi Tacos by Robyn Savoie

Kiwi and mango fruit lend a freshness to this cumin-seasoned grilled chicken, lettuce and cheese medley.

Tuscan Pork by Patrick Travis

This dish is basically an Italian "stir fry" but has a bit more sauce that a traditional Chinese stir fry would. I use a wok when cooking it. With all the vegetables in this, it's a one dish meal.

Avocado Pesto by Carolinaheartstrings

Nothing says yummy goodness to me like a big bowl of pasta and this month we are reworking some of our favorite dishes into something a little bit healthier. One of my new favorite foods that I love to add to salads and even eggs is an avocado. This particular “pesto” would be so tasty used as a spread on a sandwich, in a wrap or…

Caramelized Onion Sausage and Goat Cheese Pizza by Carolinaheartstrings

One of my favorite flavors is the taste of caramelized onions. When we decided to do pizzas for August I just knew that one of my pizzas would have to incorporate them! Add some mild Italian sausage and goat cheese and the result is a pizza with a hint of sweetness. Sweet! TIP: I rolled out the dough on a rubber pastry mat then…

Peanut-Crusted Pork Chops With Warm Cranberry Sauce by Robyn Savoie

Interesting combination of peanuts and cranberry that is sure to surprise you. If you have a recipe for homemade cranberry sauce, go ahead and use it in place of the canned.

Roasted sea bass with bacon and tomatoes by Easy Cook - Laka kuharica

This simple and flavorsome oven-roasting really preserves the delicate flavor of the sea bass.

Chicken Tender Rollups with Bacon Wrap by Salad Foodie

The basic version of this recipe abounds on the Internet, using boneless chicken breasts and gouda cheese. I tweaked it to use what I had on hand, and that was chicken tenders. The resulting rollups are smaller, almost luncheon size, and you can use the cheese you prefer if no gouda's available - Swiss, cheddar, jack, mozzarella.…

Chocolate Sauce for Roman Oxtail by Carmelita

A tomato sauce base is enriched with poached celery and finished with dark chocolate, raisins and pine nuts and a hint of nutmeg. This silky sauce is a subtly bitter sweet finish for Roman Oxtail Stew, its crowning glory. Though I have never tried it, I imagine it could also work well with game dishes.
