Healthy Appetizers & Bites

Parmesan Spinach Dip

Healthy snack recipes may be diet-friendly, but they're also known for being boring and flavorless. Not so fast! Smart snacking doesn't need to be bland if you choose the right snacks. The Mr. Food Test Kitchen prefers to put a healthy spin on our favorite appetizers for llight bites that taste like the real thing! You’ll become a believer once you nibble on one of our tasty appetizers, like Parmesan Spinach Dip (page 1). When you taste the traditional Buffalo wing flavor in our Buffalo Chicken Strips (page 2), you'll swear you're eating the bad-for-you version we love to indulge in. For a change-of-pace nibbler, don't miss our Texas Caviar (page 3) that's more fun than fancy, but certainly tasty! Try one of these deceptively healthy recipes for delicious appetizers and bites that will surely be gobbled up by friends and family alike!

 


Soups and Salads

Mexican Tortilla Soup

Satisfy your comfort-food cravings with these hearty, healthy soups and delicious, light salads. Soup and salad may be standard "diet fare" for many trying to watch their weight, but that doesn't mean they can't be packed with flavor and super satisfying. Our latest eCookbook features warming ways to start your meal like Mexican Tortilla Soup (page 5) and main-dish healthy salads like Fruit-full Tossed Chicken Salad (page 8) that’ll satisfy your hunger and your cravings, even if you’re watching your waistline. Soups and salads are often served before a main course, but you'll find our healthy recipes can be served as a meal all by itself. No more boring healthy recipes you'll tire of in no time - we’re betting you’ll love our change-of-pace soups and salads!

Easy Main Dish Recipes

Barbecue Turkey Loaves

When you've gotta get dinner on the table, it can be hard to fight the urge to serve up usual weeknight fare like heavy pastas and cheesey casseroles. But sometimes the difference between a quick dinner and a quick and healthy dinner is a few simple shortcuts. Our Guilt-Free Beef Stroganoff (page 14) uses reduced fat ingredients and no-yolk noodles so we can enjoy a rich and creamy Beef Stroganoff dish without cheating on our diet. The key to Barbecue Turkey Loaves (page 11) is ground turkey breast and old-fashioned rolled oats, which makes a heart-healthier version of meat loaf. And for a kid-friendly healthy dinner, our baked version Not Fried "Fried" Chicken (page 15) tastes just like it was fried in a pan, minus all the guilt.

Peanut Butter Cup Pie
