    I check her blog religiously! I was so excited to post what I like, when I realized that I've only made one thing from the site..I need to get to cooking!

    I made the Grilled Flank Steak with Tomatoes, Red Onion and Basalmic. So good and easy! I used the remaining steak for sandwiches throughout the week.

    I love, love LOVE her blog. Thanks so much for posting this, I can't wait to make some of the suggestions!

    I LOVE her blog. Sometimes there are so many things I don't know what to chose.

    I have made her MacNCheese- I found it to be a bit, dry. Obvisously because you are limiting the creamyness and some of the cheese. But my fiance LOVED it. It made a Huge batch- we ate it for lunch and leftover for 3 daysa and I gave some to a friend.
    I think this a good "alternative" to Mac and Cheese, obvsisosuly its not going to taste exactly like the ooey gooey delisicousness that is Mac n Cheese- but at any rate its a hearty filling and tasty dinner.

    The Red Potatoe and Green Pepper- dijon potatoe salad- I think I added a bit too much dijon on this, it was heavy on the potatoes. So I ended up cooking a few more potatoes to even the score. I served this to my mom and dad and Fiance and my mom, who is a very critical food person- loved this recipe. She said it was light and great tasting and you got the sense of potato salad without the calories. We are it on day 3 after making it so the scallions and peppers started to get a bit--worn, but on Day 2 this would be super delicious. IT def. needs to sit in the fridge a day though to let the flavors mold together. It's def. a make ahead dish for a cookout

    Pina Colada Cupcakes- These were a huge hit at a bachelorette party I went too. Everyone loved them, and it was MUCH healthier than buying a cake. They only had 4 ingredients and they use absoulutely NO butter and NO sugar or Oil.
    I would suggest making these for a summer party. Next time, I am thinking of chopping up some cherries to add to the frosting.

    My next recipe I'm dying to try is the spinach lasagna rolls. I lvoe spinach, ricotta nad pasta so I feel like that one can't go wrong!

    We've made and loved:

    Crockpot Chicken taco Chili

    Pasta Fagioli
  • BUMP!
  • I LOVE this site and have tried many of her recipes, but the ones I repeat the most are the balsamic steak and tomato (SO YUM!), Barbacoa Pork (slow cooker pulled pork - so good on rice or in a burrito), Southwest Black Bean Salad, Carne Bistec (Columbian steak), Chicken Ropa Vieja (slow cooker pulled chicken), Sante Fe Chicken, Shrimp Creole, Asian Turkey Meatballs, and Chicken Tikka Masala.

    As you can see, I like her recipes for main entrees, and I haven't yet made one I don't like.

    Also tried the cauliflower puree, homemade oven fries, cuban style black beans and beet salad.

    Actually, I wasn't fussy for the shepherd's pie.
    '


    I am trying the Barbacoa Pork ASAP... I have it on my top list of recipes to try. Going to do the Santa Fe Chicken next week!! Looks like me and you like the same Foods :)

    Oh and we LOVED the Mexican Shrimp Cobb Salad she recently posted. I drizzled it with a smidge of Ranch. DH is already asking for it again.
  • The Brazilian Cornmeal Cake is the only thing I made and it was awesome. If you like cornmeal and egg custard (two of my most favorite things)... it's definitely one to try.

    Just be warned - it's not cornbread. It's a dessert. A pretty awesome one, in my opinion.

    Make sure you really do use the COARSE corn meal. It makes a big difference in this recipe.

    Look up protein bagels. Easy and reasonable calories.

    I've had a few of the Skinnytaste recipes not work out, but most of them I've tried are really tasty. Almost any recipe I make any more is from her site.
    Some good ones: Chicken Enchilada Soup, Salisbury Steak, Spaghetti Squash Lasagna Boats, Dijon Chicken, Crock Pot Tomato Soup, Chicken Cordon Bleu

    My favorite thing is her Instant Pot salsa chicken. I make it about weekly or I choose another sauce instead of salsa b/c it’s literally just 1 cup of any liquid. But the salsa chicken is perfect for salads, tacos, lunches, etc! My next try is her Piccadillo with some adjustments.

    I made her buffalo something with homemade blue cheese dressing. I wasn’t impressed. : /

    Sesame Encrusted Baked Chicken Tenders. When you want a change from grilled or baked chicken breasts.

    The Thai chicken and pineapple stir fry is on my rotation at least twice a month and sometimes 3 times. I have used her site for 2 or 3 years now and have been happy with most of her recipes. What I like is how easy they are to change out ingredients to what I happen to have at home.

    I have tried numerous of her recipes. The spinach lasagna rollups are always a hit...
    One I love occasionally is the slow cooker Moroccan chickpea and turkey stew.
    And recently we have fallen in love with the lasagna stuffed portobellos
    We enjoy the chicken cacciatore too
    OH and the slow cooked french dip sandwiches are to die for!
