Favorite Focaccia Muffins
When my boys were young one of their favorite places to eat was an Italian restaurant where the bread baskets were filled with warm Focaccia bread. Scented with fresh rosemary and dusted with Parmesan cheese, the bread made the meal. The first time he ate one of my focaccia muffins, […]
Skillet Chicken Parmesan
Although my boys love to order Chicken Parmesan when we dine out, the health content is always a concern –especially since it usually arrives thickly breaded, deeply fried, smothered in cheese, and served on a mountain of spaghetti! In an effort to satisfy their love of this dish I have come up with a terrific easy stove-top recipe that’s filled with all of the same great flavors but none of the excess fat and carbs.
Quick and Easy Chocolate Souffles for Two (Air-fry or Oven)
A warm chocolaty soufflé never fails to impress. Soufflés also have a reputation for being difficult, but trust me when I say, this one is actually very easy to make. You can even prep them hours ahead of time (see note in step 4). The souffles can baked in the […]
Seared, Steamed, and Glazed Green Beans

Deliciously (deceptively) slim, they clock in with just 160 calories—and, they just so happen to be gluten-free. I can actually whip these beauties from start to finish as little as 15 […]
Skinny Rigatoni Pasta with White Beans and Sausage
Sausage? pasta? On a diet? Absolutely! This ultra easy one-pot cold weather favorite boasts just 300 calories and a mere 8 grams of fat. I love how the white beans, sausage, and rigatoni meddle with the deep green spinach, ruby red tomatoes, and a kick of garlic to create a such and […]
Garlic-Lime Chicken
As featured in my book Eat What You Love, this recipe is a wonderful example of how everyday ingredients can meld to create a taste much greater than the sum of their parts. Garlic, lime juice and sweet honey are all flavorful in their own right, but when combined – with […]
