I actually am a chef (although its just a hobby for now) - and I am working on a food blog. The blog is private, but I'm always looking for new idea's to make my favorite foods with less calories. You post something you want to eat, and I'll try my best to make it for you with reduced calories, and post the recipes, Then I will post them to my food blog, and make it public for all to see!
Keep on keepin' on!

Hungry Girl does this, which I love for when I am craving something... I salute your efforts! I would love to see a really great low calorie cupcake recipe--my boyfriend's birthday is Nov 5th, mine is Nov 15th, and we love cupcakes! Right now my plan is an angel food cake type thing with no icing... thoughts?0

garlic bread! haha0

What a great idea. I just made a lighter version of mac and cheese and it was pretty good. Not the same as the full fat version but not bad at all
I would love to see what ideas people have. Me, I really like sweets, so anything that can be done to make them less fattening but still flavorful would be great!

I found this elsewhere and I haven't tried it yet but here's an Alfredo that's sipposed to be really good:
1/2 head cauliflower (30 cal)
3 tbsp parmesan cheese (60 cal)
1 tbsp garlic
salt & pepper to taste
Cook cauliflower till its mushy. Throw everything into a blender and blend until smooth. Add water till its at the right consistency. Heat and serve over whole wheat pasta for a satisfying low cal dinner!0 -

Great replies everyone!!! I will really start working on this! It might take me a while, as I have to wait to get paid... but I am more than happy to do this for all of you!!!!0

cookie dough!!
Cookie dough I will work on first. Since you commented firstButter flavored shortening should help, as well as baking sugar substitues like splenda. I will try my best okay!

The shrimp isn't necessarily bad for you, however, alfredo sauce will be tricky to make less calorific as I'd like to call it. I know I can find a way to make it just as tasty. Surprisingly, dont be afraid if I use things such as yogurt, or a low fat milk to make a roux (which is a thickener of sauces, however you need butter) - There are such things as cream of tartar in the spice section that will do the same however. I love alfredo, so I'l experiment .0
