Whole wheat pasta/100 recipes

Forget the store-bought granola bars that are always way too sweet and not necessarily as healthy as you think.

Gruyère Whole Wheat Biscuits with Herbs recipe

A hearty vegetarian version of my favorite soup. It's easy to make it vegetarian by using roasted vegetable stock instead of beef stock. By adding a leftover parmesan rind (I save them in the freezer for this soup) it adds extra flavor. (optional)

Almost Whole Wheat Lemon Poppyseed Muffins recipe

Pineapple stuffed empanadas. A delicate pastry style dough with a filling of pineapple and apricot jam. Perfect for afternoon tea or healthy snacks for the kids or guests.

Whole roasting a chicken is a great way to economize. This herb roasted chicken always turns out moist and juicy with great flavor. I then package the leftover meat one cup at a time into zipper bags and store in the freezer for later use in casseroles or hashes. Then using the remains I made a homemade chicken stock that is much better than any store bought stock.

In this recipe, we use whole wheat pastry flour and all purpose flour, reduce the amount of the sugar, let the cookies appear much more healthy.

Delicious cookies are packed with goodness too.

This recipe is over 100 years old. I add a twist to the recipe (and a little sweetness) by adding some golden raisins, like my favorite restaurant in Provincetown, Mass., does.

These yummy treats are made with whole wheat flour, oats, applesauce, vegetable oil and a tiny amount of butter, which adds lots of heart-healthy ingredients to the cookies without losing any bit of deliciousness. Especially when peanut butter and chocolate chips are involved, make sure to bake enough, because they disappear quicky.

Whole Grain Sweet Potato Biscuits recipe

Whole wheat spaghetti is tossed with tomato sauce, fresh basil, feta cheese and olives. A quick, tasty yet healthy one-pot meal, perfect for busy week days.

The goat cheese mellows the pepperiness of the mixed greens, and the beets offer a sweet contrast to its bitter quality. Chopped walnuts add a little more texture to the salad. Tasty!

I made these cookies two days ago, and they were absolutely delicious. Buttery, crispy, packed with peanut butter flavor, and every single bite had lots of melted chocolate chips.

Roasting concentrates the flavour and the roasted garlic doubles up on the depth of flavours. The portobello mushrooms add a meaty texture, and pine nuts add a nutty highlight.
