Light/2 recipes

Creamy, rich and so flavorful. Didn't have pimento, used fresh sweet red pepper instead, nothing was sophisticated during the preparation, but the flavor was so impressive!

Our kids can't get enough of this easy broccoli casserole recipe.

A home-made Halloween treat that your kids will love. Chocolate sandwich cookies shaped using Halloween cookie cutters.

You can't believe how delicious and moist this cake comes out, and best of all is that the cake is made with mostly whole wheat flour, applesauce and yogurt, then glazed with a thin layer of lemony icing. Looks so appealing and tastes even better!

Found the original recipe in foodnetwork magazine "The Chocolate" issue. I changed a few things according to my own taste and this decadent chocolate babka only lasted about half day at our counter.

This quick, tasty and refreshing salad is made with crunchy-sweet sugar snap peas, red bell pepper and peppery arugula, and tossed with a light and flavorful soy sauce-sesame oil dressing.

Quick, easy, frugal and kids love them. Tune and mushroom soup turns into crispy on the outside and moist on the inside covered with a quick and easy sauce.

Light Pumpkin Pie recipe

Yes, this is a vegetarian pot pie. Not only just vegetarians love it, but also meat-lovers enjoy it. Flavorful and tasty, a delicious, warm yet light main dish during a cold winter day.

I loved the mixture of the parmesan and swiss cheeses in this. I didn't realize I was almost out of rice so I ended up using 1.5c cooked rice and 0.5c cooked couscous. That turned out wonderful! I thought this would be more "tomato-y", and I used 1.5 cups of tomatoes, but it was still tasty. Also, I didn't bother to peel or seed the tomatoes.

I was looking for a recipe which would show off the colors of M&Ms. I exchanged the margarine for butter. At first bite, the cookie was a bit dry. Then the butter kicked in and it just melted in my mouth. What a flavor experience! I will definitely be making this cookie again!

A nice Autumn flavor to these light muffins. The optional sugar topping makes a more crispy crust. To make these more diabetic friendly, I used Splenda for half of the sugar. Feel free to use all brown sugar.
