Hearty Minestrone with ...
I made this soup last night for a gathering we had at our home and it was really good. I’ve been on a soup kick lately and nothing beats the flavor of homemade stock. I used 32 oz. of my own stock instead of the canned broth. Instead of fresh green beans I used one 15 oz....

I made this for Daniel and it was a big hit. I’ll be making it again I’m sure. I used turkey stock since I have an abundance of it in my freeze from thanksgiving.

Black Bean Quesadillias...
These yummy quesadillas are ready in about 15 minutes. If you like extra heat, try using pepper Jack cheese or adding a little minced jalapeño pepper. Makes a great lunch or dinner option for kids and adults.
I made these for the boys the other day while they were assembling
Sesame Chicken Salad...
A new favorite of mine. The dressing is low-fat and very flavorful so a little goes a long way. I usually make this for lunch once or twice a week. Try adding snow peas, sweet grape tomatoes, or chopped zucchini for extra variety. Hope you enjoy this salad as much as I have.

Carrot-Sweet Potato Muf...
Delicious and full of good-for-you-ingredients. Bananas and non-fat yogurt are my most favorite fat replacements for baked goods. If you don’t have ricotta cheese on hand increase yogurt to 1 cup and decrease milk to 1/2 cup. For mini-muffins Bake at 350 degrees.

The chicken tastes great on its own. Make extra to have on hand for snacking, wraps, or salads. I always have fresh cooked chicken breasts on hand because they are an excellent source of protein and low in calories. I cut them up into strips for a quick and easy snack that...

Absolutley superb! I made this for a church function using my own beef stock and FiberWise Pasta. I made a double batch so I could freeze some. For extra protein, add diced (cooked) chicken breast.
