5-Ingredient, 15-Minute Black Bean Soup for Two
It’s hard not to say Olė to a scrumptious soup with only 5-ingredients that takes only 15-minutes to make. Honestly, “homemade” just doesn’t get much easier—or faster. I use canned black beans for convenience and then combine them with prepared salsa, eliminating the need for several additional ingredients. Not only […]
Sensational Spinach Party Dip
When I was growing up one dish my mother was very proud of was her spinach dip. She referred to it as her “secret ingredients” dip. The secret ingredients were finely diced water chestnuts that melded into the dip for a secret crunch and soy sauce that added a depth […]
Salmon Packets with Fresh Tomato Basil Relish
Let’s face it, when it comes to our health, many of the foods we love to eat, do not love us back. I find this dish to be a delicious exception! When it comes to heart health, you can’t find a better entree than heart-healthy Omega-3 rich salmon. Toss in […]
Red, White, and Blue, Tiramisu
What better time could there be for an all American makeover of the beloved Italian dessert than the fourth of July? Instead of being infused with coffee and topped with cocoa powder this equally luscious dessert bursts with the flavors of fresh summer berries and the colors of the American […]

Stir-Fried Shrimp (or Chicken) with Snow Peas
While much of the fare you commonly find on Asian American menus is heavy in sugar, fat, or calories, this lovely dish is an exception. In this easy 20-minute classic Chinese recipe fresh snow peas, juicy shrimp and crunchy water chestnuts are lightly coated in a velvety sauce infused with […]
Almond Teacakes
These nutty gems are the perfect teatime treat. Because they are made with more almonds than flour, they are naturally low in carbs and higher in healthy fats, making them heart smart and blood sugar friendly. (A typical frosted sugar cookie has 5X the carbs!). If you would like to […]
Crispy Coconut Chicken
Over the years readers have asked if the amazingly slimmed down Coconut Coconut Shrimp recipe in Eat More of What You Love could be made with chicken instead. The short answer is yes! That said, while a mayonnaise mixture was the ticket for getting the coconut coating to stick to the […]
Easy No-Cook Orange Cranberry Relish
What would Thanksgiving be without cranberries? Not Thanksgiving! Unfortunately, for those who are watching the amount of sugar (or carbs) they eat, traditional cranberry sauce, with 6 teaspoons of sugar and almost 30 grams of carbohydrates, in each quarter cup, packs a big wallop. I know for myself, and especially […]
