Seafood Enchiladas Verdes

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.

BBQ Chicken Chili

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.

Chicken Cordon Bleu

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.

Fruit Salad with Teriyaki-Glazed Pecans

This salad is light and refreshing without being overly sweet. I love the fact that because the salad is loaded with fruits and candied pecans, you don’t have to use much salad dressing at all.

Nacho “Sliders”

My family has come to the conclusion that the best nachos we’ve ever had are from…home. In our opinion, these nachos are better than restaurant quality because each chip is loaded with toppings so that nobody complains about the pile of plain chips underneath the top layer of nachos. The key is to use homemade guacamole and salsa, and to marinate the chicken. But even if you’re short on time and choose to use store-bought versions of the ingredients, serving “sliders” is a great way to present your nachos.

Mini Blueberry Muffins

When compared to many other muffins, these ones are actually pretty low in butter and sugar. I like making them in miniature because they are bite-sized and easy for my 1 1/2-year old son to eat.
