This recipe I adapted from a stuffed mushroom and another stuffed zucchini recipe ... It's a great way to use those extra large zucchini that somehow appear in the garden overnight. This is not low fat, but it is totally delicious. -- posted by New NerdMom ...
This is the yoghurt cheese made in the Middle East. It is EASY to make, but there's a lot to explain! I saw other recipes on here but they call for store-bought Greek yoghurt (different flavor) or low fat store yoghurt (yuk) instead of home-made, which is very easy to do and gives far better flavor. The consistency of home-made is not as creamy as store yoghurt because it doen't have added thickeners and stabelizers in it. You're just going to drain it anyway, and the flavor's so much better
My wife ADORES a high-fat chipotle dip made by a terrific salsa company. However, that stuff is 7 grams fat per TBSP!! Yikes. I fiddled with a low-fat version ... here's one she loves. -- posted by SpicyDoc ...
I have been making this for several years and I don't know why it hasn't occurred to me to post it here! It is a very quick and simple rice pilaf with great flavor, and you will feel good knowing it didn't come from a box. It is also a great way to use up leftover cooked rice (if such a thing exists) ... If your family likes rice dishes I might advise doubling the recipe; we tend to get pretty competitive over it LOL. The original recipe is from The Best Kept Secrets of Low Fat Cooking by Sandra
Pretty much a basic weeknight meal -- this is not gourmet, but it is warm and filling and easy to make it. If you are expecting something gourmet that will knock your socks off then please don't stop. However, this is quite tasty and filling while meatless! We add grilled chicken on top (or whatever leftover meat we have -- pork tenderloin, steak, pork chops etc) -- posted by SarahBeth131 ...
