Skinny Turkey Meatballs
http://www.skinnytaste.com/2008/12/skinny-italian-meatballs-turkey-1-pt.html I make these alllll the time. They are amazing! I have made the marinara sauce before, and it was good but nothing too special so I usually just get two jars of spaghetti sauce and add the meatballs to that. Edit: Make sure you form the meatballs…

Healthified Zucchini Bread- Delicious!
I made this a couple days ago and it was AMAZING. Can't tell that it is "healthy." I did a double batch and used carrots as well as zucchini. I didn't have nuts to use so it was even less calories. It is pretty sweet, so next time I may use a little less sugar. I made a loaf as well as muffins... The loaf turned out more…

Asian Chicken Noodle Soup
Made this tonight and it was really good. I used extra broth to make it more soupy. I was worried how it would turn out because I have never used a lot of the ingredients before, but the flavors blended really well together. With my modifications, I estimated it makes 9 servings at 146 calories each. So even if you have…

Chocolate Almond Milk Pudding
So I know this is not as low-calorie as the sugar-free puddings, but it's more natural and really good! The original recipe was for dairy-free pudding, but I just used what I had on hand. Makes 4 servings, 1/2 cup each at 183 calories. It was pretty sweet, so if I make it again I may use a little less sugar to cut out some…

Lower sugar tips?
I always always go over on my sugar... today it was by over 60 grams! I eat a decent amount of fruit, but I'm more concerned with my yougurt, cereal, and granola. I've tried getting plain yogurt and sweetening it with honey, but it just wasn't as good... I don't eat much meat (I stick to poultry and fish, but even then I…
