I need Healthy Recipes

We are trying to eat more healthy meals and when I am in need of new recipes I search the internet. I take the ones that look good and then adapt it to my familys tastes. I would say to find a few and test them at home then put them in your newsletter. I recently found a great low fat recipe for a cream sauce, it is diferent for me because I make everything from scatch but but it is easay, low fat and good. I can fat free cream of mushroom soup, 1 can milk or water)wichever you prefer, 1 packet lipton onion soup mix, 1 tsp or 1 cube beef bulion, simer on med heat till onions are soft. Works great on just about anything you put gravy one ! Good luck in your search !

What kind of recipes are you looking for. I have many discussions started with various recipes and they are all homemade and healthy. No MSG or Preservatives. If you tell me what kind you are looking for maybe I can be os some asssistance.

have you tried going to the kraft website?? i was always looking for different recipies and then i decided to visit www.kraftfoods.com (i think thats the url) and you can sign up for a free newsletter where they send recipies to your email every month and you can also sign up for the Kraft Magazine which is totally free and they have a lot of good and healthy recipies. all of course use craft products of course, but you can always exchange those out sometimes. but they also have a section on the website where they are healthy recipies and for some of their recipies they have the 'healthy exchanges' where it tells you how you can make the recipie even healthier.

Have you thought about looking into Weight Watchers recipes? Healthy stuff there! I am sure you can find WW recipes online. I think this is wonderful that you do that.

You want recipes that we have , not just the ones that are online? I'm sure many people could copy and paste a recipe and throw it on here. Well if thy have 500 posts or more. I will see what I can dig up for you. I do have a blender drink recipes that i make and it is healthy and very yummy. Berry banana smoothie 1 cup strawberries 1 cup blackberries 1 cup blueberies 1 banana 1 cup vanilla yogurt 1 cup special k cereal 1/8 of a cup nuts any kind 2 cups milk (any kind that you like, 2 percent, whole or skim) Put it all in a blender close the lid and blend on high till everything is liquid. About two mintues. Pour in a tall glass and enjoy. This is tastey and very healthy and it has all the ingredints needed for a comlete meal.

One super simple recipe that I use pretty frequently is: Take several large leaves of greens (collards, chard, mustard, etc.). Roll up the leaves and cut in very small pieces, so you get thin ribbons. Chop 1-2 pieces of bacon or turkey bacon and fry in a non stick pan until crispy. Add the greens until color changes to bright green. Eat! I know bacon isn't exactly a "health food" but you use so little it's worth it because of the amount of flavor you impart on the greens. I hardly ever eat greens any other way and greens have a lot of fiber (but chopped small so easily chewed and swallowed), vitamins, and folic acid. And something like chard has 100% of vitamin K, A, and C, and 11% of you daily calicum (per cup). AND there are so few ingredients, you almost always can make it. Another good website for reference is: http://www.cookinglight.com I like cookinglight because they tend to have a lot of photos and you can search by ingredient.

I have posted a few of healthy recipes in my discussions - please take a look there. Also I use this website: http://www.gospellight.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=91 when I am looking for something healthy. I am a member of this weight loss group (First Place) and these recipes are great! Easy to make and healthy.

well are you looking for whole meal ideas or just specific things? I have lots and lots of things that I love to cook how healthy they are Im not totally sure. I tend to cook on a whim what sounds good is what gets made. I make my own creations...haha I also have a lot of crock pot recipes that come out GREAT! I just made one last week, that I was able to get 2 meals out of...everyone loved it too.

send me the best one :)

Here is my Low Fat Chili Recipe, although it is not as healthy as some of the other things on here, it is very low in fat and tastes wonderful. Texas Low Fat Chili Recipe 1 pound ground turkey 1 onion, shopped or 2 tbl spoons instant minced onion 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder 1 to 1-1/2 tsp chili powder 2-1/1 tsp ground cumin 1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes 1 (6 oz) can tomato paste (you can add beans at this point, although I omit them) ** 1 (30 oz can chili beans Brown turkey in onion over medium-high heat, stirring to break up meat, until lightly browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in all remaining ingredients. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes.

Hi I have many receipes I send out all the time everyday in my discussions so if you are interested then you may look through my profile and maybe you will find what you need there. I understand as the ladies get elderly that they need and require to eat correctly so if the ones in my profile are not suitable then add me to your friends and I will then be able to message you and send you some of them.

I'll give the follwing recipe hoping you will appreciate it.It's like antipasto but you can eat it now during this season and it's very healthy;it's for 2-3 persons. You need of 10 basil leaves ,15 little tomatos,salt,oregano,oliv oil,6 slices of bread and a little quantity of fresh onion,but it's optional. Wash your basil leaves and them into small pieces,you have to do the same thing with the tomatos and the onion.Unite these 3 thing in a container and add to them salt,oregan and olive oil. Bake the slices of bread and after you have exit the slices,set them in a plate and put on them the mixture.I suggest you to choose large bread slices so it's more easy to eat them and to put on them the mixture.You can change this recipe adding to the mixture also mozzarella but I prefer the first way beacuse it is a more light recipe. If you have seen it's very esy to prepare it and it's too quickly.

I would say that Tabouli salad is healthy it is one of our favorite summertime treats. we like it with lots of parsley in it! I lost my usual recipe with a computer crash :( but there are many online. You can add a lot of variations to it some add ins that we like cucumber chopped (seeds removed) red onions or scallions feta cheese black olives (greek olives when I can find them) lots of parsley Tomatoes (again without the seeds, I am an anti goo person, lol) some people will soak their bulgar in boiled water, others let it soak in cold. I do not have a preference, I like it both ways. My dressing consists of cider vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, garlic, and olive oil.

dear all plz have a look at this web site have good exercise ,eat ,oderate , food and more whole grains,vegitables,fruits etc

haha...i have no ideas !!

happy every day!
