lasagna to rich-tasting scalloped potatoes, fudgy brownies,
rustic apple tart, carrot cake, and lots of simple fruit
desserts. Here you ll also find naturally lean recipes like

that will forever alter the way you cook. Banish fried foods
but still serve crispy chicken fingers, eggplant Parmesan,
and oven-fried fish with our simple tricks (we toast the
bread crumbs for that fried flavor). And learn to
incorporate more vegetables and whole grains into all sorts
of everyday dishes with easy recipes such as Hearty Ten
Vegetable Stew, Chicken Baked in Foil with Fennel, Carrots,
and Orange, Stuffed Acorn Squash with Barley, Multigrain
Pizza Dough,Fusilli with Kale and White Beans, and Barley
Risotto with Roasted Butternut Squash.
And while we kept our eye on the bottom-line nutritionals,
we also focused on using healthy ingredients too, so while
some recipes might be a little higher in fat and calories,
that is because they use nutritionally valuable foods like
salmon, avocados, nuts, and seeds (and more). We also relied
on many lower-fat ingredients here and we tell you which
ones really measure up from ricotta and cream cheese to
cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream. Which one you
choose and when you use it can make a big difference in your
final dish. With this book in hand, home cooks everywhere
will be able to make simple changes in how they shop, eat,
and cook changes that will deliver a big payoff to their
family s health.
