  • Low cal Portabella mushroom cheesesteak. (My version is only slightly modified)

    1 Portabella mushroom (cut out the gills and stem)
    1/2 red bellpepper (green works too)
    1 jalapeno pepper
    1/3 yellow onion
    salt and pepper to taste
    1 slice of low-cal swiss cheese.
    6 button mushrooms (because I just adore mushrooms in general)
    1/2 tsp. worcheshire sauce (I can't spell it so whatever.. you know what I mean)
    [The real recipe calls for 1/4 teaspoon of low-sodium soy sauce, but sometimes I don't even bother mixing it in.

    Slice up portabella caps and heat over medium heat for about four minutes. Set aside. Chop veggies as finely as possible. Cook veggies over same heat while throwing in your favorite seasoning (Mines are usually a bit of garlic powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper, minced garlic, and parsley). Meanwhile, I slip a wheat hoagie into the oven to toast it. While veggies cook, I melt the swiss cheese on top, and once melted, I return the portabella slices to the mix. Stir on medium-low heat then add to toasted hoagie. I hate veggies normally, so this helps me get my daily fill of them.

    Low fat Alfredo sauce ( great on steamed veggies)

    2 cups nonfat milk
    1 8 oz package fat free philidelphia cream cheese
    1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    1 tsp onion powder
    1 tsp garlic powder
    White pepper to taste.

    Warm milk in a saucepan. Cube cream cheese, melt part way in microwave (30 seconds) and wisk into milk. Add remaining ingredients and whisk until smooth.

    2/3 cup = 160 calories

    It's pretty good!

    THIS IS HOW I MAKE MY ALFREDO SAUCE EXCEPT I MELT1 TBSP BUTTER IN A PAN THEN ADD THE CREAM CHEESE TO MELT IT THEN ADD THE MILK AND SOME FRESH GARLIC,SALT AND FRESH CRACKED BLK PEPPER ( I DON'T USE THE CHEESE BUT THAT WOULD JUST MAKE IT MORE YUMMY) AND I THINK ITS THE BOMB...I HAVE AN ETREMELY PICKY HUSBAND AND EVEN HE LOVES IT!

    Apple slices, sprinkle with cinnamon and a tablespoon of crushed lowfat graham crackers, microwave for 2-3 minutes. Add low fat cool whip if you're feeling rebellious :P

    One of my go to breakfasts was a bagel thin toasted and each half topped w/ eggbeaters (which i made in the microwave) and a slice each of 2 % kraft singles then salt and fresh cracked pepper...put halves back in the microwave for aprox 15 sec to melt cheese and its delicious!!

    Cheesecake - Light or no fat cream cheese mixed with ricotta, flavoured with SF vanilla, white chocolate or cheesecake pudding powder. Top with fruit. Can put a bit of graham cracker crumbs on the bottom.

    Peanut butterscotch marshmellow squares - My fix for this is just SF butterscotch pudding mixed with pb and banana, topped with cool whip. Although I guess some mini marshmellows mixed in instead of the banana would work nicely.
