Chopping onions can really irritate your eyes. But, if you light a candle nearby before getting started, the flame from the candle will neutralize the sulfuric fumes from the onions. Your eyes should stay clear so no more tears!

Celebrate National Grilled Cheese Day with this delicious, quick to prepare dinner. It’s not at all like a typical grilled ham and cheese. It’s very tasty with thin slices of dill pickle and mustard added, plus dipped into a buttermilk and egg batter before grilling. A French toast of sorts. It’s skinny due to using [...]
Years ago I owned a very popular reduced-fat restaurant with two locations in the LA area called Nancy’s Healthy Kitchen. This taco salad was by far the most popular item on the menu. Some of our customers, including my husband, ate this delicious salad for lunch or dinner everyday for several years! It’s such a [...]
You’ll love this colorful vegetable dish to serve along side just about any main course meat such as ham, beef, lamb, or even fish or chicken. It’s one of my all time favorite recipes from the Barefoot Contessa cookbook. It makes such a beautiful presentation and tastes amazing. I’ve made it much skinnier by adjusting [...]
These egg filled cups makes a delicious breakfast or brunch. To create the cups I’m using high fiber English muffins. They’re filled with a healthy medley of sauteed spinach, garlic, onions and tomatoes, plus a combination of eggs and whites. Finally, they’re topped with fat-free feta cheese. The skinny for 1 of these very filling [...]

Normally made by soaking matzo until soft, frying with eggs and serving with applesauce, cinnamon-sugar or jam on the side, I’m shaking things up a bit! This [...]
I adore this vegetarian salad and make it all the time. It’s so colorful and full of texture and flavor. I especially love adding assorted fruits, a little chopped nuts and cheese to salad greens. These flavors work really great together whether you’re serving it as a side salad or main course salad. It comes [...]
Sometimes the simple to prepare meals are the tastiest. This open-faced delight surely delivers. First, I’ve layered a skinny ham salad, steamed asparagus and reduced-fat cheese on top of toasted garlic bread. Next, placed in the oven to melt. It might sound like a strange combination but wait until you taste it. The skinny for 1 [...]
