Special/5 recipes

Cheesy juicy stuffed chicken breasts filled with bacon, ricotta and swiss cheese, pan fried until golden and served with a lemony white wine sauce.

AKA The Dolly Parton diet, or The Cabbage Soup diet. An easy to make low-calorie, low-fat soup.

This recipe deserves at least 5 star, it is that good. Made it for dinner last nigh. The sweet-sour sauce was a hit, perfectly balanced flavours and textures.

Beautiful enough for special spring dinners, yet easy enough for weekday suppers, these chicken breasts are bursting with the fresh flavors of simple ingredients. This recipe can also be doubled if you have extra guests.

Traditionally baked during 'Sinterklaas', a feast on 5 December (6 December in Belgium and Germany) on which little children receive gifts from the holy St. Nicholas, the partial inspiration for Santa Claus. In Germany, Pfeffernüsse are traditionally made during the Christmas season.

A mixture of ricotta cheese, spinach and provolone cheese stuffed inside chicken breast and topped with a rich tomato sauce. Got this recipe from a friend in Wisconsin where provolone cheese is very popular. If you don't have the provolone feel free to substitute mozzarella for equally outstanding results.

5 Bean Soup recipe

This is the best carrot cake ever. My friends said that they would buy it from me. I only make it on special occasions. MJ

Quinoa is high in fiber, protein and gluten free. To make this quinoa lasagna, we use a spring-form pan layered with different flavored quinoa and vegetables, colorful and incredibly tasty.

These are the best crackers ever. We have been serving these crackers to our guests a few times, everyone just raves about how addictive-ly delicious they are. Serve these crackers with cheese, hummus, or just having them directly is yummy enough!

This is based on a delicious Paula Deen chicken recipe. It makes a great appetizer and only uses 5 simple ingredients. I found the original recipe way too sweet so have modified it to be a bit less sweet and have added a spicy kick to balance out the sweetness.

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.

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.

This savory dish is perfect for a special dinner for two. Goes well with a fresh loaf of garlic bread!

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.

"Pudding and whipped topping -- the perfect combination for this yummy no-bake, cold and creamy pie."
