Bean-salads/4 recipes

A spaghetti squash casserole cooked with Gryuere (or swiss) cheese and fresh basil until the parmesan cheese is browned and the casserole is bubbling. Unbelievably low-fat, low-carb delicious goodness.

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.

I made this recipe for my boyfriend on his birthday and he asked me to marry him (I did). I'm not saying for sure that the Prinzregent Torte is why Don wanted to marry me, but I've always worried that it might have been. It is a magnificent recipe that always evokes incredulous cries of pleasure from people that I serve it to. The cake is a lot of work, so I only make it about once a year, but the people that I make it for feel very special.

Ridiculously easy chicken, cheese with a mushroom marinara sauce that tastes great! This is a huge hit in our house, kids love it.

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.

These delicious and nutritious muffins are stuffed with a rich cream cheese filling that's combined with lemon zest and honey. Breakfast time has never been this enjoyable!

Make-ahead breakfast casserole that's perfect for Sunday brunch or breakfast. Most breakfast casseroles are huge amounts, this one has been scaled to make just two hearty servings so you can enjoy it anytime.

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.
