Bean-salads/7 recipes

A simple, but scrumptious broccoli salad that is the perfect substitute for when you're tired of the same old leaf lettuce side dish.

Sugar snap peas, strips of chicken and greens with pasta and dressed with a garlicky Caesar salad dressing.

Sprouted some bean sprouts last week, meanwhile I had some colorful bell peppers needed to be used up, then this was the quick-easy stir-fry I put together.

This is my copycat of the popular salad sold at McDonald's. It's the only thing I eat off their menu and I was anxious to replicate it at home.

Easy Jack Daniels spiked smokey baked beans. Enriched with sugar and "spice" and everything nice! :)

I had this yummy and warm hot-pot with some homemade kimchee and a Korean style spinach salad. Real comfort food! Highly recommend this dish to everyone who likes Korean food.

Such a flavorful and refreshing rice salad that is ideal on a warm spring day or a hot summer day, especially it's best served once chilled. Feel free to add cucumber, radishes or any your favorite spring veggies.

My 14 year old said "pretty good" much better than a plain ham sandwich.

Slightly sweet and sour. Ginger and garlic Asian dressing was super flavourful. The napa cabbage, carrots, and radishes gave the salad a nice crunch. Definitely will be making it again with my leftover turkey. I'm sure that it works great with chicken as well.

A scrumptious chicken dish that can easily be made with your cooking sidekick, the crockpot.

These wraps are made with soft tortilla shells and filled with juicy chicken, fresh vegetables, and a generous drizzle of creamy dressing.

I love Creme Brulee but with the high fat have been working on a no-guilt low fat version of this French delight. It had to be creamy with the subtle flavors I remember from when I was in Cannes France. Last weekend my father came to visit and here it is, low-fat no guilt Creme Brulee using Canadian maple syrup and a Madagascar vanilla bean. Guaranteed to knock the socks of any guest and you can feel the guilty feeling they have once they taste it. Then they're so relived when you tell them the ingredients. Truly no guilt.

A refreshing summer salad that is made with fresh and seasonal vegetables and berries. Low in fat and calorie, but packed with goodness. Feel free to use blueberries, raspberries, or a combination of all three.

Last Wednesday we took this colourful and delicious salad to a pot-luck, everyone loved it and a few of them even asked for the recipe. It was such a refreshing salad that's also packed with goodness.
