Chicken Teriyaki Stir Fry by Salad FoodieThis recipe was featured in "30 Minute Meals" (Rachael Ray Magazine 6/15) and we agreed it's a keeper. I didn't meet the half hour timeline though, because while the cooking is fast, there's measuring and chopping to accomplish. Nevertheless I think you'll enjoy serving this healthy and satisfying stir fry. Note: Beef or pork would… |

It’s so easy and straightforward. I’ve served it many times and everyone loves it.

Lite and Fabulous Steak Pizzaiola by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy FoxThis Italian classic is simply steak topped with a quick cooking, zesty, pizza-like sauce. Sometimes it’s topped with cheese. I’m using very lean top sirloin but if you’d prefer to use flank steak or skirt steak, just reduce the cooking time a bit. Doesn’t matter how you cook your filet, the sauce absolutely makes this dish. The… |

Rice and Crab salad fast and easy! by HelenscookingThis salad recipe is good with crab meat and shrimps (or you can use both), corn adds sweetness to the salad, rice works as the base of this salad. You can cook it without rice if you wish, but I prefer it with rice, and herbs (dill and parsley, or just dill) are important. This recipe appeared in my cookbook, when we lived in… |
