Here’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 [...]

It’s one of Jamba’s very popular “all fruit” smoothie. Most of their original smoothies contain frozen yogurt or sherbet, but not this one. It’s just juice and frozen fruit! Jamba Juice’s 16 oz size has 240 calories. My home version is very close at 238 calories for the same 16 oz serving. This fiber rich [...]

I really wasn’t sure this hot dog would be for me. I mean, I know it’s extremely popular in Chicago with everything in it but the kitchen sink! A Chicago dog is typically made using an all-beef hot dog on a poppy seed bun piled high with mustard, sweet pickle relish, onion, tomato, a dill [...]
Moussaka is a delicious, hearty, Greek dish, usually prepared with sliced potatoes, eggplant, seasoned ground beef and lamb and a creamy topping of whipped potatoes with béchamel sauce. I’ve visited Greece several times and found that each cook has their own variation. My skinny version includes seasoned lean beef, potatoes, onions and eggplant. Instead of [...]
Salisbury steak has been a classic dish long before TV dinners were in the picture. Look on the menu of most diners and you’ll probably see this hamburger patty-style steak.
