Skinny, Mini Reuben AppetizersHere’s a classic deli sandwich turned into a bite-sized appetizer. I love serving these whenever I’m having company over or even as a fun lunch. They would be terrific to serve while watching football, too! These little gems are so delicious and simple to make. You can prep them in advance and pop them in the oven, just before… |

Guilt-free Chicken Nuggets, Oh YeahMost kids love McDonald’s Chicken McNuggets. I’m sure many grown-ups do too. But, they are so unhealthy! Happily, not my skinny ones! No deep frying here…I’m using skinless, white meat chicken and baking them. The bread crumb coating has a wonderful flavor similar to barbecue potato chips. The skinny for 6 chicken nuggets only 203… |

Chicken, Tomatoes & Rotini SaladHearty pasta salad to help use up leftover roast chicken or turkey. I've a bumper crop of grape tomatoes which work well in this too. I try to go light on the seasonings, so follks can adjust as desired when served. |

Super Skinny Sweet and Sour ChickenThis sweet and sour chicken taste sensational. It’s so much healthier than take-out and my family thinks it taste amazingly better! Although this dish is usually made with breaded, fried chicken, to make it healthy, I’m using chicken breasts chunks, adding more vegetables and pineapple plus serving over brown rice. The skinny for each… |

Chicken with Roasted Red Pepper & Chipotle RiceStarting with a recipe that won a contest sponsored by the USA Rice Federation, I took the liberty to substitute chicken for the original recipe’s fish (see “Useful Links” below for the Tilapia version.) Using prepared jars of red roasted peppers and chipotle salsa cuts down on the preparation, but certainly not the taste of this… |

Favorite Buttermilk Waffles (with Whole Grain option)Buttermilk makes baked products divine, and this is the way I use it in waffles. White whole wheat flour or whole wheat pastry flour can be subbed to boost nutrition. Lazy soul that I am, I mix the batter in a blender and use that as a pitcher to pour them conveniently. I freeze extra waffles for a quick into-the-toaster breakfast.… |

Best Crispy WafflesThis is my favorite recipe for a crisp waffle. If that’s the way you like them, don’t reduce the oil, cause that’s what makes them crispy! Lazy soul that I am, I mix the batter in a blender and use that as a pitcher to pour them conveniently. I freeze extra waffles for a quick into-the-toaster breakfast. Just add maple syrup, butter… |

Tilapia with Roasted Red Pepper & Chipotle RiceThis tops my favorites of ways to prepare Tilapia. The recipe was one of the winners a few years ago in a contest sponsored by the USA Rice Federation. Using prepared jars of red roasted peppers and chipotle salsa cuts down on the preparation, but certainly not the taste of this snappy Spanish entree. (See "Useful Links" below for… |

Easy Sour Cream BiscuitsQuick to the table because there's no cutting of shortening into flour mixture. Just stir in sour cream, knead lightly, pat out, cut and bake. Couldn't be simpler to get homemade biscuits on the table. I like to use up the tail end of the sour cream this way. |
