Budwig Diet Smoothie by John Spottiswood

Someone turned me on to Dr. Johanna Budwig recently. I read a bit about her research and her diet online. While there isn't a lot of hard evidence behind it, she was definitely ahead of her time in recognizing the importance of good fats, and the harmful effects of bad fats, in our modern diets. She strongly encouraged the…

In-a-Pinch Cranberry Sauce made from Dried Cranberries by Salad Foodie

I serve turkey year round but forget to keep canned cranberry sauce on hand; even when I do it's hard to use up the whole can because not everone eats it. Recently the craving for cranberries with roast turkey breast was too strong. I grabbed the Craisin bag from the pantry and experimented making a small amount of cranberry sauce.…

Jamba Juice’s Pomegranate Paradise Smoothie, Delightful and Dairy Free by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

It’s one of Jamba’s very popular “all fruit” smoothies. Most of their original smoothies contain frozen yogurt or sherbet, but not this one. It’s just juice and frozen fruit! Jamba Juice’s 16 oz size has 240 calories. Ours is very close at 238…

Toucan Mango Chai Smoothie with Fruit by Robyn Savoie

I love Chai Tea. You can use any of the flavors from David Rio's collection for this but the Toucan Mango is the best for a tropical twist.

(From the Appetizer Collection at emealsforyou.com) I seem to be on a mission to find easy but good food; maybe it is the unbelievable heat we have been having. Simple seems to have a special appeal when the thermometer reads in the high 90's. The neighbors came over last night for dinner and I was scratching my head to come up…

Halloween is right around the corner. That means the ghouls and goblins in your neighborhood will be looking for sweet treats. Here's a great snack that I came across to help cut those calories. The picture shows a whipped cream topping but I like to use Greek Vanilla Yogurt.

Quick and Easy Avocado Dip by Sherwin Faden

I make this avocado dip often and serve with chips. I often serve a spicy salsa separately. The avocado dip is very light and refreshing. As there are only three ingredients in the recipe, the choice of tomato is very important. Tartness is controlled by how much lime juice you put in.

Fig & Prosciutto Salad by Denise Romeo

Berry Blue Smoothie by Robyn Savoie

I love using pineapple juice in my smoothies. It gives a tropical flair for those hot Summer days or nights. To finish off the drink, garnish with a small pineapple wedge and blueberries.

Non-Alcoholic Sangria Punch by The Blender Girl

For a zesty Summer drink, you just can’t go past this non alcoholic Sangria, which never fails to refresh and satisfy. There are a ton of wonderful non alcoholic Sangria recipes out there that use a variety of fruits. A lot of recipes use pears and apples. But I really like the tartness of citrus fruits – any excuse to use lemon and…

Banana Wrap by BearNakedBaker

Great for snack or Breakfast.... I NEVER microwave anything (don't own one either) so this is entirely up to you. I simply warm my tortilla in a warmed pan, and sometimes I don't warm at all....

Blueberry Smoothie by Robyn Savoie

When blueberries are in season, I have a tendency to go banana over them. This is one of my favorite smoothie recipes for breakfast or snack.
