You'd never guess that these
delightful meals are low in calories.
Peasant Pizza with Goat Cheese
Using a small amount of goat cheese on this pizza adds a tangy
flavor. Look for it in the specialty cheese section of the supermarket
labeled "chevre" (pronounced SHEV), which means goat
in French.
Asian Primavera Stir-Fry
Fettuccine, ginger, and sugar snap peas come together with chicken,
carrots, and dried mushrooms for a satisfying meal that delivers
on taste and nutrition.
Swordfish with Cucumber Sauce
Yogurt, cucumber, and snipped mint leaves team up as a garden-fresh
sauce for grilled fish steaks. A simple side dish of sauteed
sweet peppers and onions, keeps it light.
Tofu Manicotti
Tofu, low-fat cheese, and fat-free milk help make this Italian
favorite low in fat and low in calories. To fill manicotti shells,
use a small spoon to fill each shell with about 1/4 cup of the
filling. The spoon should be smaller in diameter than the shell
so you can fill the shell without tearing the pasta.
Curried Turkey and Couscous Pie
Phyllo dough makes an elegant, golden crust for this hearty (and
surprisingly low-fat) pie.
Tortilla-Black Bean Casserole
Using low-fat dairy products makes this meatless main dish more
healthful. If you like, light dairy sour cream, salsa, and sliced
green onions also make tasty toppers.
