    emilybites.com Similar to Skinnytaste
    http://www.thefitcook.net/index.html
    http://www.eat-yourself-skinny.com/
    http://www.cookinlean.com/ - Takes Paula Deen and other famous chef's recipes and slims them down
    http://reciperehab.com/ - This is a 30 minute show on Saturdays. They basically take a family's favorite recipe, let two chefs make slimmed down versions of it and then send it to the family to grade on health, ease, and taste. It's really fun to watch and they post some great recipes!

    realsimple.com This is not an all low calorie/healthy place however all their recipes include nutritional information.

    I often just google ingredients I have on hand with the word recipes and see what pops up. (Ofvcourse I don't pick the high ca,orie or fattening ones...)
    I found a great Chard cooking tip that way..(It is bitter if it sits around..bet if bought/picked same day - I grow mine, so that part was easy).

    I've found my best recipes on Pinterest. Yes, they link to various sites but I'm a visual person & and if I see something that looks good, I check it out.

    Here are some of my favorites, these are good sites with healthy recipe options...

    http://www.cleaneatingmag.com/ (I recently bought 3 of their cookbooks...excellent stuff!)

    http://www.eatingwell.com/

    http://www.cookinglight.com/

    http://www.webmd.com/

    http://www.oxygenmag.com/

    http://www.womenshealthmag.com/

    http://www.vegetariantimes.com/ (I subscribe to this magazine and their recipes are delish!!!)

    I also find some awesome recipes on the stonyfield.com website (yogurt company)

    Whole Foods and Sprouts Farmers Market also have some really good recipes

    Sunset.com - pretty amazing recipes, but you have to look up the nutrition info...I recently bought their cookbook and was shocked and disheartened to learn how many calories/sodium/etc. are in their dishes...but you can find some healthier ones if you look. Good for entertaining though, if you like to host dinners...the recipes are amazing!

    I also browse sites of organizations like Mayo Clinic, Heart Association, Diabetic and Dietetic Associations...good healthy places to find recipes.

    Good luck and happy cooking!!

    There are some good high nutrient recipes on Dr. Joel Fuhrman's website. (As well as in his book : 3 Steps to Incredible Health volume 2 of a 3-part series.) http://www.drfuhrman.com/
    I don't always adhere 100% but I have lost 40 lbs since just after Thanksgiving. I started tracking food on MFP some time around New Year's Day. (Lost 33 so far since then).
