Skinny Springtime Sugar Cookies, Terrific for Easter

Skinny Springtime Sugar Cookies, Terrific for Easter by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

These colorful old-fashioned sugar cookies are crispy, delicate and buttery tasting. And, I’m using just a small amount of reduced-fat butter combined with canola oil. What a yummy, low calorie treat to make for Easter. Each skinny, mini cookie has 37 calories, less than 1 gram of fat and 1 Weight Watchers POINTS. Although I like…

Classic Potato Salad & An Unscientific Potato Challenge

Classic Potato Salad & An Unscientific Potato Challenge by Salad Foodie

For the heck of it on a dull afternoon we put the “scientific method” to the taste test to determine the best potatoes for potato salad. There were only 3 varieties on hand to test: russet, red, and Yukon Gold. One-half pound of each were cooked just till tender, drained, cooled and cubed. The recipe selected was Classic Potato…

Chili and Cornbread Skillet Pie by myra byanka

Bake your leftover chili into a delicious pie with a cornbread crust. You don't have to own a cast iron skillet to make this; it would just look better when serving.

Use a good quality brownie mix. Hershey's make one with the chocolate chips already in it.

Great crust for refrigerator pies. It's so good, I could eat it by itself, it being a type of shortbread.

Skinny Salisbury Steak, a Diner Classic

Skinny Salisbury Steak, a Diner Classic by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

Salisbury steak has been a classic dish long before TV dinners were in the picture. Look on the menu of most diners and you’ll probably see this hamburger patty-style steak. It’s usually smothered with rich, dark, gravy and served with mashed potatoes. This recipe is too but I’m trimming the fat and calories by using extra lean ground…

Oat Pecan Praline Cookies

Oat Pecan Praline Cookies by Salad Foodie

Chewy, slightly soft texture with a hint of caramel pecan, these attractive cookies make a nice snack for company with coffee, tea or milk. Sometimes we bakers just have to break out of the oatmeal-raisin cookie rut, and these certainly do!

Zucchini Meatballs in Cream Sauce - Microwave Quick!

Zucchini Meatballs in Cream Sauce - Microwave Quick! by Salad Foodie

Chocolate Chip Zucchini Cookies

Chocolate Chip Zucchini Cookies by Salad Foodie

Zucchini cookies much like pumpkin cookies tend to have a cake-like texture rather than crisp or crunchy from the extra moisture of the vegetable. In this recipe the cookies come closer to a crisp/chewy texture through (1) extra draining step of the zucchini and (2) pressing the cookies down on cookie sheet before baking.
