This was one of those "why not try it this way" dishes. Nancy and I have a decent collection of cookbooks, including a number older Weight Watchers cookbooks that we have picked up on the bargain table at the bookstore. I was flipping through one of them and came across a recipe for Broccoli Rab MORE

We all know that we need to get plenty of  vegetables as part of a healthy lifestyle. But, all those veggies can make a huge difference in any weight-loss effort beyond their nutritional value. Whole foods, in addition to being healthier than processed foods, are far more filling. Those tr MORE

I have made what I think is an incredible discovery. You may already know about it: Whole wheat pastry flour. In trying to find lighter, healthier versions of the food I love, I have incorporated more whole grains. Unfortunately, a little goes a long way and too much can dry things out. When I MORE

Here’s to all you who love horseback riding, running, swimming, and just working-out, like me. :) If you workout then you probably know the importance of taking protein powder. Sometimes on off days when I’m not working out I still like to take a little protein powder, but not a full MORE

Having been a vegetarian for almost 20 years now, it seems like the holidays can be one of the most awkward times of the year... all those holiday feasts surrounded by friends and family. I'ts not the people that make it awkward (unless we are visiting my own family, in that case.. it is), but… MORE

The other half hates turkey.  Not much to moan about because all meats/poultry/fish are not allowed on their heart diet. So we avoid Christmas with the family and cook our own.  This year it was Buddha's JewelsForbidden Rice Pilaf with Beluga Lentils Copes Stewed Corn {Don't… MORE

Holiday time can be incredibly difficult if you are trying to lose weight, or even if you are trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

You all know I have a thing about red sauce. I swear, I'd eat shoe leather if it were covered with a good marinara! But I'd much prefer a good eggplant Parmesan! You wouldn't know this version is lightened up because it is so loaded with flavors and textures. Eggplant for this dish is tradit MORE
