National Nutrition Month: 6 Recipes Under 100 Calories

Thursday, March 1st, 2012

Jessica TN National Nutrition Month: 6 Recipes Under 100 CaloriesMexican Omelet Cups RE National Nutrition Month: 6 Recipes Under 100 CaloriesHow is it already March–it feels like we were ringing in the New Year just last week! Speaking of the new year, it’s about time you checked in on your New Year’s Resolutions.

Every year, my resolutions stay strong for about three weeks. That’s followed by about a week of guilt, and by the time February rolls around, I’ve determined that I’m too busy right now to follow through. I’ll get around to it all once life slows down. It’s funny how that magic window of time never quite appears. Spring pops up, and I still haven’t started to eat healthier, take more pictures, get in touch with old friends, or take up a new hobby. Does any of this sound familiar?

That’s why March is the perfect time for a resolution renewal–New Year’s 2.0, if you will. Take those nutritional goals you and your friends toasted over, dust them off, and head out again for round two. We’re here to help!

Get in on the Kale Craze: Learn How to Make Kale Chips!

Okay, so I’m not THAT old, but over the last few years I’ve been teaching myself to like certain healthy foods I never liked before.

First it was sweet potatoes. Can you believe I never ate them growing up? Neither of my parents cared for them, so therefore I was never exposed to them. Several years ago, I started hearing about how healthy they were, and I was determined to learn to like them. I’ll admit…it wasn’t that difficult! Now I love sweet potatoes…mashed, baked, fried and even shredded. I especially love the Mr. Food recipe for Shredded Sweet Potatoes! (oh, and just for the record, my parents both love them now, too!)

Healthy, Quick Dinner Ideas for Kids

By Jaime · Comments (1)
Wednesday, January 11th, 2012

Jaime Gross signature Healthy, Quick Dinner Ideas for KidsPopcorn Lollipops RE Healthy, Quick Dinner Ideas for KidsSo, here we are, the beginning of a new year and ready to start eating healthier. As a household, we all need to make some changes for the positive.

Hubby and I are on board – no problem. The baby is now a year old and still very happy eating whatever I put in front of her: sweet potatoes, lean proteins, avocado and squash. Then there is our 12-year old…more of a challenge.

We have a rule in our house; the kitchen is not a restaurant and I am not a short-order cook. I will make dinner and you will eat it. We try to involve him in planning the meals for the week and this way he has more of an interest. We can’t have hamburgers, tacos and pizza every night. I figured there have to be lighter, healthier versions of these kid-friendly foods out there.

30 Healthier & Diet-Friendly Comfort Food Recipes

By Sarah Schiear · Comments (1)
Monday, January 9th, 2012

Sarah Schiear1 signature 30 Healthier & Diet Friendly Comfort Food RecipesNot Fried Fried Chicken RE 30 Healthier & Diet Friendly Comfort Food RecipesI know what you’re thinking: Comfort food and dieting aren’t two things that go together like, spaghetti and meatballs…or peanut butter and jelly, right?

Wrong! Enter our latest collection of 30 Healthy Recipes for Comfort Foods.  I got with our Test Kitchen and we put this collection together to prove that dieting and eating healthier doesn’t have to mean giving up on our favorite feel-good dishes.

I have to admit, I was skeptical of recipes like our Not Fried “Fried” Chicken. When we tested these recipes, that was one that I was especially excited to try. Would it be crispy and crunchy – the way fried chicken is supposed to taste? Would it be juicy and flavorful?

Resolution Revolt

By Helayne · Comments (2)
Tuesday, January 3rd, 2012

Helayne Rosenblum signature Resolution RevoltBaked Pub Style Shrimp RE 2 Resolution RevoltHappy New Year everyone! Okay…so how many of you reading this have resolved to eat healthy recipes or lighter recipes in 2012? C’mon…you can admit it!

It’s almost a tradition when the question comes up about New Year’s resolutions. Articles abound about suggestions for how to accomplish those lofty goals and now a lot of our Sunday newspaper inserts are filled with advertisements for exercise equipment. Yes, January brings with it a lot of pressure. We’re coming off of the holiday party food gorging we’ve just done, and the first thing that happens is that we are forcing ourselves to sacrifice our favorite foods.
