Asian Turkey Terrine

Meatloaf… not normally one of my go-to meals.  But alas, today I looked in my freezer and there was ground meat staring back at me.  I had no motivation to go to the grocery store, so I needed to get creative. Funny how with one child, I found going to the grocery store to be [...]

Chicken Tikka Masala

I love Indian food.  I never thought I would until a coworker introduced it to me, and wow… I’m hooked.  However,  I want to make lighter versions of it at home.  My favorite is “Butter Chicken”… which, I mean really, how can you lighten up a dish with that name?  Gina mentions that this is [...]

Chicken Philly Sandwiches

Life is busy… that’s about all I have to say.  I’m totally enjoying my maternity leave, but I’m definitely busy, and I can only imagine how swamped I will be once I go back to work!  The idea of it is making me sleepy already… so for now I’m going to just enjoy the next [...]

Asian Glazed Drumsticks

I was hesitant to make this.  First, I was worried it’d be too sweet, and second, I was worried my husband wouldn’t like it. After we had the first bite, my husband said “This is an eleven!”.  I asked what he was talking about, and he said that on a scale of one to ten, [...]

Orange Sesame Chicken and Lemony Egg Soup

Orange Chicken…. just say it and I think I start to drool.  That ooey gooey deep fried stuff they serve at a local Chinese fast food chain is just to die for.  However, I don’t want to imagine the nutritional content of it. When Melissa D’Arabian did these recipes on her show the other day, [...]

Ranch-O Bacon Chicken

Simple… check.  Healthy… check.  Tasty… check! I need to thank Hungry Girl for this great recipe.  Simple & delicious!  Note that I quadrupled the recipe for 4 chicken breasts. Ranch-O Bacon Chicken serves: 1 (*** multiply for your servings) WW PointsPlus: 4 One 5-oz. raw boneless skinless lean chicken breast cutlet 1/2 tsp dry ranch [...]

Tiny French Beans with Smoked Sausage

I made this in the crock pot the other day, and boy did the house ever smell good. I used low fat turkey smoked sausage, and dried great northern beans.  I have no clue where I got this recipe, but I’ve had it for years and had yet to make it.  So, here ya go! [...]

Gordon Ramsay’s Mozzarella Chicken

I made this the week before going to the hospital.  It sounded decadent, and I wanted decadent before I started on my trek to lose baby weight!  My friend Andy sent me this recipe.  He’s sent me several that I’ve tried & blogged.  However, I’d never tried anything by Gordon Ramsay.  I was very impressed!!  [...]

Pasta with Turkey Sausage and Broccoli

Yesterday I was at lunch with a good friend, and we overheard a table of people next to us.  The one woman was talking about how she couldn’t wait to go home and drink a bottle of wine… her Friday tradition.  The other man at the table mentioned going to some event at some bar.  [...]

Chicken Saltimboca and a terrific spring pie

Yes, there’s been a lag in my posting.  It’s called I’m-9-months-pregnant-with-heartburn.  I have been making a lot of tried ‘n true recipes (most of which have been posted here already) that are quick and simple.  So, I haven’t had much new to report. So, last night I decided it was Sunday, and I needed to [...]
