Mimosas are always so popular at brunches. They’re an elegant orange-colored champagne cocktail. A classic one is made with orange juice and champagne. The addition of pineapple juice makes a wonderful fruity change. As for the champagne, no need to buy an expensive bottle, any reasonably priced sparkling wine will do. For the kids use [...]
Passover begins at sundown today, Monday April 18th, 2011. It’s a Jewish holiday to commemorate the deliverance from slavery in Egypt. It’s also known as the Festival of Unleavened Bread. The Hebrews, in their flight into exile, had time to prepare only unleavened bread (matzo) to take with them. Here’s a delicious and easy recipe [...]
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. Each skinny cookie has 37 calories, less than 1 gram of fat and 1 Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS. Although I like sugar cookies crispy, if you like them soft, bake [...]

One skinny slice has 144 calories, 3.5 grams of fat and [...]

Normally it’s made with iceberg lettuce, chicken with the skin left on, or even fried chicken, deep fried noodles and a high fat Asian dressing. Happily my skinny makeover [...]
These bars are rich, sweet, gooey and definitely addictive. This recipe is a takeoff of my Outrageous Magical Bars. My family loves them so much I’ve converted my regular skinny recipe for Passover. I’m using matzo crumbs instead of graham cracker crumbs and a spread like Smart Balance to replace the reduced-fat butter. I’m also [...]
Everybody loves these little potato appetizers for Hanukkah but they’ll be perfect for Passover too. Best of all, they’re baked not fried! I’ve removed the flour and used matzo meal instead. All the other ingredients work just great! The skinny for 4 of these little gems is 64 calories, 1 gram fat and 2 Weight [...]
