I was just looking at healthy recipes online and thought I'd share my favorite find & see if anyone else wanted to share too! :)) Copy & paste to here! Modify it to make it healthier if you wish and try to include the calories per serving as well ;)
If you don't mind going one step further we could make this really great...add to the food database as "MFP Thread Recipe - Name of your recipe" And be sure to check YES for sharing with other MFP members.
If you have the time MFP is still building their database, and you can add it there too of course! but I know that the database is not available yet, and I'm hungry now :D So, hope people like this idea, thanx everyone!!
P.S.Tried to put a smile in the title - lol now I know it doesn't work :tongue:
