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 […]

Foolproof refrigerated pie dough and easy-to-keep-on-hand frozen fruit make these plump home-style fruit pies an anytime treat. I love the mixture of berries and dark sweet cherries, but any type or a blend of frozen berries will do. You can also roll out the pastry circles ahead of time, cover […]

Creamy and oh-so-chocolatey, this 140-calorie no-bake chocolate “cake” takes just 5-ingredients and 15 minutes to make!
