    skinnytaste.com has A LOT of great recipes I make. Like low cal ranch dressing (52 cals for 1/4 cup) and low fat chocolate chip cookies.

    You must try their guacamole recipe. My 11 yr old girl, who is anti-healthy food but loves guacamole, actually prefers this version to normal guac!

    I use both Hungry Girl and Skinnytaste .. depends on what I'm looking for and the calorie count, I don't always like that HG uses low calorie substitutes with almost everything.

    Hungry Girl used to be a favorite, but I didn't like that they use so many sugar substitutes and processed foods.

    I'm going to take a look at the other sites posted here.

    I had skimmed Hungry Girl not too long ago, but I was kind of turned off by how much premade food she used. I try to avoid processed food as much of possible. I much prefer raw, fresh ingredients. I also don't do sugar substitutes.

    I have to agree, skinnytaste is probably the BEST diet website I've come across. I'm actually making her pork carnitas for dinner tonight, and I've yet to come across a recipe I didn't like.

    If you're interested in buying a book, I also highly recommend the "Cook This, Not That" cookbooks. They're from the guys who did "Eat This, Not That" and they have some really great recipes. I think both books (there are two) run about $13, but they're worth it. I've made a lot of really good food out of there too.

    ITA. I used to be an HG follower, but since I adopted a clean eating diet I just don't even agree anymore, but I can see how it helps people who are still eating that way and want to lose weight.
