Cheesy Beans and Rice
This recipe came out really good! I cooked the rice in chicken broth. I sauteed the onions with canola oil cooking spray, to save on calories. I also did a 16 oz. jar of chunky salsa instead of diced tomatoes. I used cheddar-jack cheese, added chopped up turkey sausage, and two tbsp lite sour cream. Excellent!!!

Mom's Chicken Cacciatore
This was really good. I used boneless skinless chicken thighs, dusted with flour and Seasoned Salt, and sauteed them in olive oil. I also added a red bell pepper to the vegetable assortment, and used baby bella mushrooms (sliced). I substituted red wine for white, and added half a jar of Bertolli organic Olive Oil, Basil, and Garlic sauce. Served over whole wheat penne pasta, very good.

Hot Spinach and Artichoke Dip
This was phenomenal, way better than anything I've had in a restaurant. I didn't add bacon (it just didn't seem to "fit" the recipe). To give the dip just a little crunchiness to it, I added a few heaping tablespoons of diced water chestnuts. I used a previous reviewer's suggestion to do 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese and 1/2 cup shredded Italian blend cheese (the kind that has romano, mozzerella, etc). SUCH a good suggestion, it gave the dip just a touch of stringy cheese texture. I used a small tub of Alouette Light Garlic and Herb cheese spread (you can find it in the little 'gourmet' refrigerated section of the deli in the grocery store), THIS really made the recipe great, I think. I also used Lite sour cream. I served with toasted pieces of pita bread, DELICIOUS!!!! This is going to be my new party staple dish.
