My family loves this corn casserole, which is great for family get togethers – like today’s Father’s Day celebration. But our original recipe uses lots of butter and sour cream, so I lightened it by substituting buttermilk for butter, non-fat Greek yogurt for sour cream, and fat-free cheddar for cheddar cheese. I couldn’t taste the […]

So I quickly whipped up dough from two ingredients and let them pick their toppings and assemble. They loved it! This recipe is perfect […]

Well, now you can enjoy them without the greasy frying. Check out the companion recipe for the homemade, non-fat ranch sauce. These were the perfect meal before […]

A great winter comfort food that is both nutritious and delicious. Simply dump the ingredients in the morning into the slow cooker, and then come home to a tasty, hearty meal.
