Honey-Soy Broiled Salmon
March 26, 2010
Honey-Soy Broiled Salmon
Wow! We liked the Honey-Soy Broiled Salmon tonight even more than the Salmon with Pepita-Lime Butter (made on 3/5/2010). This was definitely faster and easier to make, which is always nice. In the background is Roasted Asparagus with Garlic-Lemon...
Lemon Chicken Stir-Fry
March 24, 2010
Lemon Chicken Stir-Fry
My parents invited us over for my "little brother's 1st birthday", also known as Oli the silky terrier. Of course, I insisted mom make an EatingWell recipe. This is her 3rd recipe, Lemon Chicken Stir-Fry which she served with Brown Rice....
Cheddar-Ale Soup
March 22, 2010
Cheddar-Ale Soup
Cheddar-Ale Soup made healthy. I have to be honest, this is my least favorite recipe yet. It must be because I'm so used to my potato cheese soup, which is filled with butter and cream. It may have been the beer I used though, which was an amber...
Turkey & Tomato Panini

Turkey & Tomato Panini
How is this EatingWell? Well, we didn't eat what's in the cans, that's for sure. Beneath all that is a Turkey & Tomato Panini. See the tomato peeking out? Don't worry; there's more pictures... The most essential part of the Turkey & Tomato...
Sausage, Mushroom & Spinach Lasagna
March 20, 2010
Sausage, Mushroom & Spinach Lasagna
Last night I made two 9x13 trays of Sausage, Mushroom & Spinach Lasagna. The recipe said that it serves 10, but it is way easier to slice it into 12 portions. That means, instead of 333 calories per portion, it's ~277 calories a piece. So I can...
Corned Beef Hash
March 17, 2010
Corned Beef Hash
It's St. Patrick's Day so I figured some corned beef was in order. Yep, EatingWell.com did not let me down with their Corned Beef Hash. I'd never had Corned Beef Hash before so I can't compare it. I can only say I liked it a lot. Also pictured is...
Skillet Gnocchi (again)
March 16, 2010
Skillet Gnocchi (again)
Skillet Gnocchi tonight! ( Last time we had Skillet Gnocchi was day 21 which was 3/1/2010. We're on day 36 today.) I thought it'd be fun to show the gnocchi actually in the skillet. If we'd used all the spinach that doubling the recipe called...
Indian-Spiced Chicken Pitas
March 14, 2010
Indian-Spiced Chicken Pitas
For Brooke's birthday dinner, she chose Indian-Spiced Chicken Pitas. (We celebrated Ambrogio's birthday too. His is 3/17.) Dan did all the cooking on this one while I was occupied making dessert (which wasn't an Eating Well recipe due to lack of...
Chopped Greek Salad with Chicken
March 12, 2010
Chopped Greek Salad with Chicken
Chopped Greek Salad with Chicken made by my mom! We told her we won't eat at her house unless she cooks from the EatingWell cookbook we gave Dad in January for his birthday. Well she finally did it! and it was pretty good too! Too try and keep it...
Fettuccine Alfredo
March 10, 2010
Fettuccine Alfredo
Fettuccine Alfredo while on a diet? Yep! It's whole wheat pasta, with a lighter version of Alfredo that's almost as tasty as the real thing. This is one recipe that has to have the salt or it just doesn't taste right, so I added it after the fact...
3 New Recipes! (Salmon, Asparagus & Dressing)
March 5, 2010
3 New Recipes! (Salmon, Asparagus & Dressing)
Tonight's dinner was my most favorite yet, but it's probably just because we had so much variety (and truth be told a bit more than 500 calories but I'd planned ahead and ate less to account for that). The salad was a mix of Spinach & Arugula....
Cream Cheese Pound Cake
March 5, 2010
Cream Cheese Pound Cake
I really wanted to eat the whole Cream Cheese Pound Cake all by myself but I shared w/ everyone else and there's plenty for tomorrow and the next day. I cut this into 20 servings just like the recipe says. By the way, that's not sugar on top that's...
Lemon-Garlic Shrimp & Vegetable and not-so Roasted Garlic Dressing
March 3, 2010
Lemon-Garlic Shrimp & Vegetable and not-so Roasted Garlic Dressing
We liked it so much that we did it again; Lemon-Garlic Shrimp & Vegetables from Day 7. I doubled the recipe which gives us 8 portions in a 3 quart casserole dish. Along with the Lemon-Garlic Shrimp & Vegetables we had some Arugula with grape...
Skillet Gnocchi with Chard & White Beans
March 1, 2010
Skillet Gnocchi with Chard & White Beans
Tonight's dinner is Skillet Gnocchi with Chard & White Beans. Gnocchi is one of my favorite Italian foods to eat. If you've never had gnocchi, you're missing out. This was my first time having wheat gnocchi and it was great. I wasn't sure this...
