Couscous With Peas & Carrots

Posted by Lowfat Linda

A good weekday chicken dish that takes under an hour to make (as long as you don't have to run to the store for leeks!). I adapted this recipe from the October 2008 issue of Eating Well magazine, so it's healthy as well as tasty. My 4 year old... MORE»

Low-Fat Version of Indian Butter Chicken

Posted by Lowfat Linda  

This dish is super tasty and reasonably simple to prepare. Because I cook for a multi-generational household (ages range from 3 y/o to 93 y/o) I have to make a number of tweaks to accommodate everyone's needs. As a result, recipes often end up... MORE»

Vegetarian Quiche With Potato Crust

(3 reviews) Posted by Lowfat Linda  

My family absolutely loves quiche, but I didn't make it frequently due to the hydrogenated oils from the pie crust and the extra calories from the heavy cream. It took me several years to perfect this recipe to make it low fat while maintaining... MORE»

Healthy Chicken Tetrazzini

(1 reviews) Posted by Lowfat Linda  

This Tetrazini is very good — it does not taste like a lower fat version at all. I love chicken tetrazini, but almost all the versions I've seen are made with lots of butter (and therefore saturated fat), so I created this healthy version. I... MORE»

Bruschetta & Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Posted by Lowfat Linda  

This is a tasty and satisfying dish and looks very nice on the plate. Kind of like chicken that comes with its own Italian-seasoned stuffing. The original recipe came from kraftfoods.com, but I made a few changes to lessen fat, sodium and... MORE»

Mom's Chinese Walnut Chicken

(1 reviews) Posted by Lowfat Linda  

This is a dish my mom has been making forever. It is very tasty and appeals to all. We only serve this dish occasionally as it is pretty high salt — although it is probably lower in sodium than anything you would get at a Chinese restaurant.... MORE»

Tasty Shrimp With Orecchiette Pasta

Posted by Lowfat Linda  

My family loves this dish and the presentation is beautiful, but it isn't hard to prepare. I recommend using Orecchiette pasta as it is the perfect shape/size/flavor to compliment the shrimp and soak up the sauces. This recipe was adapted from a... MORE»

Swiss Chard Phyllo Pie

Posted by Lowfat Linda  

This is kind of a fancy (French?) spin on the traditional spinach phyllo pie (spanikopita). I found the general recipe in the Whole Foods 'What's Cooking' flyer, but then altered it a bit. The original recipe calls for using a frozen puff pastry,... MORE»
