Low Fat Turkey Burgers
I'm not a big fan of beef boullion, but it really did make the burgers taste more like beef. Neat trick. However, these are only moist enough if you use "ground turkey" rather than "ground turkey breast." But then they are definitely not "low fat" coming in at almost 50% calories from fat. Will try again adding some conditioning, such as egg whites (or egg substitute) and ground oats or whole wheat bread crumbs. Thanks for the idea about the beef boullion.

Lemon Green Beans with Walnuts
We loved the flavors. I used 1/4 cup walnuts to lower the calories/fat and that was plenty. Also used light butter (2 Tbsp), all the zest and 1 Tbsp juice from a medium lemon. It had a subtle but definite lemon flavor. Just right. Thanks for a great recipe.

Artichoke and Chickpea Stew
We loved this. I would describe it as a soup, not a stew. Broth was thickened just right from the starch in the chickpeas. Made very few changes: 2 tsp, not Tbsp of oil to reduce fat/calories; 1/2 tsp dried sage rather than fresh; 14.5 oz canned, diced tomatoes (drained) rather than fresh. Using fat-free, less sodium chicken broth, it didn't need any additional salt or pepper. Thanks for a great new recipe.
