Ice cream always connects with high fat and high calories, this low-fat chocolate ice cream uses liquid egg whites and low-fat milk powder instead of egg yolks, condensed milk and heavy cream. The result is delicious and healthy, enjoying it in this hot summer day!

Because it is made with light margarine spread instead of traditional butter, this dense pound cake is rich and buttery-tasting, but better for you. Top the cake with a drizzle of orange icing.

Deluxe Jalapeño Cornbread recipe

Rich and packed with flavor but without the unhealthy fats. Slightly sweet carmelized onions and sundried tomatos topped with cheese on crispy toast (crostini).

The classic Italian tomato sauce, great for any pasta dish or to add flavor any Italian style dish.

From across Northern Italy there are many variations. A rich broth, juicy Italian tomatoes and rich herb simmered for a long time. I used a mixture of sliced mushrooms from my local supermarket and dried lobster, oyster and shitake mushrooms. Then used the mushroom juice in place of chicken broth. Outstanding reduction of rich comfort flavors.

This is one of my favorites, and is always a hit when I bring it to potlucks.

I cut the recipe in half and made 24 mini muffins, which baked in 12 minutes. I also took the liberty of adding a pinch of ground cinnamon and 1/4 tsp. of vanilla extract.

A very quick and easy homemade dish for when you're craving some Italian flavors on a weeknight.

This is an awesome Raita (cucumber and yogurt) with the fresh zing of mint which goes well with lamb or to cool off your taste buds with a spicy curry or any other hot and spicy dish.

I have been making Thanksgiving dinner for 14 years and have made turkey several different ways. This turkey recipe is now one of my top two favorites! It was perfect for a non-Thanksgiving turkey craving. I saved the drippings to make gravy for open-faced turkey sandwiches with mashed potatoes the next night. Delish!!! Thanks for making turkey fun during the "off-season"!
