Does anyone know of a good website to find healthy, low-calorie recipes? I'd like to find one that has the nutritional information listed for each recipe. Fitnessmagazine.com is a pretty good source, but I'm looking for something new!

    I'm more of a book worm....I swear by "the biggest looser family cook book" wich has very good and tasty receipes and all the nutritionnal info.

    My sister's bible is the Curves book wich is also really good!

    Hey all.

    What I've been doing is those Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers but I've been adding like 3oz. of cooked shrimp to them. This is great for a couple of reasons. First off, shrimp rocks. But aside from that, 3oz. is only like 84 calories and it's a great way to increase protein intake.

    I use JennyCraig.com.....it has recipes on there and most of the nutritional info, although it doesn't list sugars which happens to be my devil. There is a great one on there for Citrus Marinated Shrimp and Scallops ( I add fresh grated or ground ginger for a little more taste). I usually make a stir-fry out of this with a little of the marinade prepared separately and add fresh pea pods, carrots, water chestnuts, bean sprouts which I serve over brown rice. Doing this i find it stretched the meal and is enough for leftovers. Also on this site is my new favorite side dish - Brown Rice Apple Pilaf. Hope this helps you out!

    I went on this site yesterday after reading your post. I absolutely loved it. i may still tweak some recipes to make it even healthier but it gave me the basis to work from. Thanks so much for sharing!!
