Easy Low Fat Sausage and Rice 2008-07-06 23:42:00 All the cooking for this dish takes place in one pan so both prep and clean up are easy. It's also mostly just waiting for the rice to absorb the liquid. Not a lot of attending or stirring to do. This method of cooking the rice creates a soft, creamy taste similar to risotto without the fuss. It uses ordinary boxed white rice. Nothing fancy.

Fake Hamburgers 2008-05-22 23:39:00 Sometimes I eat those Morning Star Farms fake hamburgers. They're good. What's bizarre though, is that the cheddar ones have less fat than the plain.

Warm Chick Pea Salad 2008-03-13 23:31:00 I've been trying to come up with more meatless dishes. Even though poultry and fish are low fat, I'd still like to consume less meat.

But I was determined to eat some good apple muffins - so I bought the mix and began modifying.Ingredients1 box Jiffy apple mu Read more:Cheap

Low Fat Sausage Pasta 2008-01-27 23:46:00 Turkey sausage makes everything taste better. When I get the package of six links I usually use half with a chicken dish and reserve the other half for use with pasta. Eating the sausage as your main dish might be too fatty, but using it as an ingredient adds lots of flavor without adding a lot of fat. This is also an easy way to turn bland jarred spaghetti sauce into something extraordinary.You c Read more:Sausage

The Woman Behind Cooking Fat Eating Thin 2007-12-28 22:52:00 From age 5 to 18 I was a fat girl. I just really liked good tasting food. My mother still smiles when she tells the story of how 'more' was my first word. More chocolate cake. More cookies. Further evidence of the fat gene. At 12 I went away to summer fat camp where I learned to love skim milk and margarine. The merits of margarine are still in dispute, but skim milk never goes out of style. I did
