Classic cream cheese frosting makes everything taste great! I cut out most of the refined sugar while using natural sugar from maple syrup in the cake – and saved the refined sugar for the delicious cream cheese frosting. I also balanced the cream cheese by combining fat-free and full-fat cream cheese. My family could not […]

Farm fresh strawberries that we picked ourselves this afternoon were a delicious addition to this cheesecake I made earlier in the day in honor of Father’s Day. Nothing says love more than this cake since the sliced red strawberries look like hearts! And Dad will love that this cheesecake is lighter than the full-fat version.

This simple dish tastes just like Chinese Takeout, without as much fat or oil. It’s a cinch to prepare, so it’s great for those nights when you run home only to need to run to get to meetings/events after dinner.

I got a head of farm-fresh Romaine lettuce, so I decided it was time for some homemade Caesar salad dressing. In New Orleans, I had Caesar dressing that was freshly made at my table using raw eggs. Store-bought versions use mayo. I decided to do my own take on Caesar salad dressing by using non-fat […]
My children love fried food, especially covered in cheese. But of course, I needed to make the recipe a bit healthier. The air fryer helps to give these chicken cutlets that fried taste without the oil. I also make a few other substitutions to make this classic dish healthier, like egg whites rather than eggs. […]
