This can be a hearty meal in it of itself or served as a side dish. It’s a great way to feed your family veggies because the turkey chili is loaded with them. Plus, the potatoes are baked so this rendition of chili cheese fries offers a healthier alternative to the standard dish.
These muffins are a great source of fiber, protein and vitamins with the oats, nuts and bananas. I like making them in miniature so that they are just the right size for my son.
My family loves fish tacos. This time we decided to make them a little differently, battering and baking the cod pieces à la Baked Chicken Nuggets with Creamy Bacon Dip. Preparing the fish this way makes the tacos more kid-friendly and they appeal to people who typically aren’t seafood lovers, too!
Enchiladas are a great way to get your family to eat seafood. Shrimp, scallops, crab and cod are all good options for the filling because they are firm and have mild flavors.
These wraps are quick to make and though they are light, they are very flavorful. They were the perfect picnic dish for our lunch at the park the other day!
These peanut butter balls are the easiest snack to make and a sure way to serve your kids some protein and calcium. They are also sweet enough to be a satisfying dessert.
This chili is easy to make and can be made on the stovetop or in a slow-cooker. I used leftover BBQ chicken but it would also be good with ground chicken, turkey or beef.
You won’t miss the beef with these turkey burgers that are tender, flavorful and juicy…and easy to throw together. They will be a staple dinner, with or without bacon, for the rest of the summer.
This ranch dressing is better than store-bought versions and doesn’t contain MSG (which I recently discovered is in many commercially-produced varieties). I also love the fact that it is made using light sour cream instead of mayo.
The origins of chicken cordon bleu are unclear but it is thought to be an American dish, not French, as the name implies. I baked the chicken to make the dish lighter, and added a creamy mushroom sauce to complete this rich, comforting (and guilt-free) meal.
