Pizza pockets are easy to make at home. My family liked the sausage & mushroom-filled pockets and the spinach & three cheese-filled pockets but you could use whatever filling you want.

Flautas (Spanish for flutes) are a similar concept as taquitos but are typically a little larger and made with flour tortillas. As I did with my taquitos, I baked my flautas for a healthier version, filling homemade flour tortillas with a simple taco beef filling and cheese.

These kale wraps are one of the most interesting (and good!) things I’ve had and they are definitely a conversation piece for a party. As you eat the kale wrap, you get a burst of each of the flavors: ginger, lime, toasted coconut, peanuts, red onion and tamarind sauce. I didn’t even notice that I was eating kale.

I’ve received such good reviews about my homemade chicken sausage that I decided to transform it into meatballs. Spinach is the star ingredient that earned these meatballs a spot on my Tapas For a Cure menu, but I also love the fact that they are made with chicken.

This simple hors d’oeuvre is a crowd-pleaser and very easy to make. With the health benefits of grapes and walnuts, it was a perfect addition to my Tapas For a Cure menu.

This rendition of a chicken and eggplant Parmesan sandwich is satisfying and light, a perfect summer meal. Wrap the chicken and eggplant in large lettuce leaves for a main course or in smaller leaves for an appetizer.

Frittatas and Spanish tortillas are very similar. A common version of the tortilla española is made with a simple combination of eggs and potato. In this rendition, I added spinach, feta cheese, bacon and red bell pepper.

I like to serve an assortment of hummus flavors, including this version with spinach and feta cheese. You and your family won’t even realize that you are devouring a healthy leafy green.

Hummus is a great source of protein and fiber, and it makes a tasty snack. I like to serve an assortment of hummus flavors, including this version with roasted red peppers and feta cheese.
