Original chile con queso contains lots of fat, try this low-fat chile con queso, and cut at least half of the fat, but it tastes delicious, even better. Superbowl day, eat some homemade pita chips with this delicious dip, enjoy! The flavor is boosted by adding your favorite beer!

This is a great appetizer, the beets are delicious and easier to prepare, and I used more garlic too, very yummmy.

This is an excellent way to prepare beets. Reminiscent of potato pancakes, shredded beets and carrots are mixed with eggs and then cooked in a skillet until crispy on the outside. The earthy sweetness of the beets go perfectly with the creamy yogurt dill sauce, simply delicious!

Tender-crisp green beans added the nice crunch to the salad. The peppery arugula and the final touch of creamy goat cheese were the musts. Definitely will make it again!

Healthy blueberry muffins sweetened with pure maple syrup instead of refined sugar, built on whole-wheat flour, ground flax, and buttermilk. Tender, high-fiber muffins brightened with fresh orange zest.

Rich in fibre and protein, also much less fat, and the ingredients together create this delicious vegetarian dish which is welcomed by non-vegetarian too!

Use mostly whole wheat flour and grape seed oil to make these muffins much healthier without losing a bit of deliciousness.

Curried leek and potato soup, vegan and gluten-free, with sweet sauteed leeks, mild curry, fresh rosemary, and a touch of arame seaweed for umami depth. A silky, blended weeknight soup with a twist.

A delicious and moist blueberry coffee cake. By using most whole wheat flour, some vegetable oil, apple sauce and a small amount of butter makes this cake contain much less fat and more fibre without losing any yumminess.

Tasty treats, and the recipe can also be used to make quick bread.

Enjoy this deliciously moist rhubarb cake without feeling guilty at all, and the best of all is that this cake is packed with goodness!

Sourdough whole wheat bread blends an active starter with stone-ground wheat flour, wheat germ and molasses for a hearty, high-fiber sandwich loaf. Tangy, nutty and bakes in a standard loaf pan.

Really a nice recipe, I used all butter and they turned out chewy, not flat, and very flavorful.

A scrumptious salad made with millet, black beans, cucumbers and juicy tomatoes.

The combination of black beans and sweet potato gives these brownies a moreish, moist quality. These are great for kids as they contain no added sugar or trans-fats (you may wish to omit the coffee and substitute cacao powder if serving to youngsters, though).

These black bean croquettes are so good. Serve them with salsa, or put them into whole wheat pita with yogurt and cucumber sauce as a quick lunch or dinner.
