When the weather gets warm, this salad becomes a regular dish on our table. A great light salad for picnics or any other summer-time occasion. I hope you will enjoy this salad as much as we do!
This salad would make a terrific addition to summer BBQs and picnics, it travels and holds well. The slightly sweet and spicy dressing gives the vegetables a welcome zing.
This is a delightful vegan tuna salad recipe that is sinfully delicious! Great on sandwiches or in salads. Also, this dish is cheap to make! Garnish it with pickles.
I have not had a chance to try this yet. From Ask Aida's "Light & Healthy" episode. You can substitute veggie stock for the chicken stock to make this recipe vegetarian, and of course you can opt not to...
To me, this soup is ultimate cold-weather comfort food. The tahini and Bragg's add amazing depth of flavor. It makes a big batch and freezes wonderfully. Be sure to serve with a generous stack of wholewheat...
If you do not plan on serving it immediately, refrigerate the hummus and garnishes separately. When ready to serve, stir in approximately 1 tablespoon of warm water if the texture is too thick. Adapted...
Kielbasa, beans and Pineapple are baked in a sweet mix. This is My Aunt Carol's recipe. I don't care too much for the fattiness of Kielbasa, so I par-boil mine to get some of the fat out. The measurements...
These are a nice change from the usual straight from the can beans and they're quick and easy to make in the microwave. We love them along side tacos, enchiladas or any other Mexican dishes.
I found this in the newspaper under recipes for a presidential inauguration party. The caption was "A vibrant Kenyan Vegetable Curry could please a president with African roots, as well as anyone who likes...
This recipe is based on one from a Dr. Oz December 2011 episode where he gave away many Vitamix blenders that cost about $500 each. Fortunately, the directions say you can make this in a blender, which...
I needed something unique to take to a cookout and wanted to keep it fresh and vegetarian. This is an original recipe (aka I just made it up :) ) But it turned out delish! This would be great as a lunch,...
Adjust the amount of jalapeno to suit your taste, or use a mild or hot salsa instead of medium; I would not like these any spicier than they already are. I make these in a pressure skillet, a shallow version...
I've tried several baked bean recipes and this is one of my favorites. I grew up standing in line on Sunday mornings waiting for a coveted seat for breakfast at Parker's Maple Barn in NH. I was delighted...
Adapted from a friend's amazing baked beans recipe, this is a very flexible, crowd pleasing dish. It freezes well so I usually make a double batch and freeze it in single portions for work week lunches...
An original recipe inspired by my Polish grandmother's cooking. For a milder flavor, you can rinse and drain the sauerkraut. I serve this with crusty rye bread.
This recipe was printed in the New York Times several years ago. I often use it for my own lunch with some fresh veggies. Flavors are best a room temp, but dip must be stored (long-term) in the fridge....
The richness of this dip makes it seem like a splurge instead of a healthy choice. In fact, this dip is loaded with fiber and is a replenishing post-workout snack. From "WW 5-Ingredient-15 Minute Recipes"...
This is a recipe that a friend of mine gave me. It's a nice comfort food for a cold winter's night. I use Bush's Chili Magic chili beans for the extra flavor. If you can't find Bush's Chili Magic and instead...
As the Summer of Death and Bizarre Weather comes to a close, so does Healthy and Delicious' occasional series on mayo-less salads. Our fourth and final recipe is Greek-Style Chickpea Salad from Cook's...
Portobello mushrooms are the "meat" of this one pot vegetarian dish. If you prefer, you can add cooked chunks of Italian sausage. Recipe from the "Arizona Republic".
I love fennel, I love soup... so when this soup was recently featured on FoodTV's "Party Starters" prepared by Edison Mays, I snagged the recipe from the website and adapted it to my liking.
The richness of Saigon Cinnamon flavors this salad, created by Chef Suzanne Goin of Lucques in Los Angeles. Dates, carrots and toasted pine nuts add color and complexity to the couscous.
A very tasty and tummy warming recipe given to me several years ago. Once the ground beef is cooked, this can all get dumped into the crock pot. UPDATE 3/09 I added a 1/2 t of dried thyme to round out...
What distinguishes this pea soup is the addition of condensed beef broth which makes it much more substantial. It's definitely the main attraction and not merely the first course. Soaking the peas overnight...
Another recipe from a singing legend. Remember Isaac Hayes? Of "Shaft" fame? He has a tremendous cookbook and there are so many wonderful recipes, I dedicated an entire cookbook for his recipes. There...
My husband had a cold recently, and craved that old-timey chicken noodle soup--however, we recently decided we're not chicken-eaters anymore. So I experimented, and came up with this, which borrows from...
My husband raves about this! Easy to eat as a salad, but it's yummy with tortilla chips or FritosĀ®! It's easy to double or triple, and it's really simple to add more ingredients if you have them, like...
This is another recipe straight from the coupon section of the Sunday newspaper :-) It is a Rosarita original recipe. It is fantastic for a super bowl party (or any other party, for that matter).
A simple recipe for beans, you must plan ahead for presoaking the dried beans. You could probably used tinned but it wouldn't be the same. This recipe was found on www.ivu.org, submitted by the International...
