Take 5
Making a dish with only five items is an awesome premise and this issue’s recipe was for Spinach Ricotta Pie. Although this was full of fat, the changes are simple! Use fat-free ricotta cheese instead of regular and swap out egg whites for half the amount of eggs. Done and done!
Grilled Cheese Sandwiches with Spicy Grapefruit Salad
This recipe fell under the section $10 Spot where you can cook a meal that serves 4 people for under ten bucks. Pretty smart! I liked this dish the best because grapefruits are super low in calorie but high in fiber and vitamin C.
Shore Thing
Plan a perfect picnic at the beach with this recipe for Jalapeno Mango Shrimp. My only advice here is to maybe wait until this whole Jalapeno/Salmonella ordeal passes over to make this.
Sloppy Veg-Head Joe
My husband is always begging me to make Sloppy Joes but they are just not my style in addition to the fact that they are full of fat and cholesterol but this recipe may change my mind. The only suggestion I would make is to serve them on whole wheat rolls. Everything else sounds delicious and very healthy!
Red Waldorf Salad
Beets are an excellent source of folic acid and they are packed with fiber which is why I love the recipe! Roasting the beets gives them a great flavor and I love the combination of beets, sliced apple, grapes, walnuts and chicken. Just make sure you reduce the amount of olive oil for roasting, 2 tablespoons will work just fine.
