Great tasting beef and broccoli is a quick and healthy dish that can satisfy your cravings for Chinese food which is often over oily and salting in the USA.

What's better the savory beef fajitas stuffed into warm tortillas and filled with smoking grilled peppers and onions?  This meal is surprisingly low in fat and calories and packs in a bunch of vitamins and minerals.

Guys, you can eat beef and still lose weight but you have to choose your beef wisely.  This is a great recipe for cooking a low fat steak and packing plenty of flavor into it.

Egg Foo Yung is perfect for a fat guy like me that's trying to lose weight.  It's packed with protein, cheap, fast and easy (hmmm..... that reminds me of something else)

Green eggs and ham was one of my favorite stories growing up and greens were always part of my diet growing up so it's no wonder that I love this recipe.  You can leave out the ham as the mushrooms add plenty of flavor but I like for sentimental reasons.

Grilled Salmon is the perfect fat guy food because it combines fire and red meat.  Well, maybe it's not really a cow but salmon is the red meat of fish and you at least still have fire.  Every guy should spend a little time learning to grill salmon because it's easy, it looks fancy and you get to grill something and still eat very healthy.

I love Korean Barbecue, known as Bulgogi and this easy and healthy recipe should fit into a busy schedule and a reasonably low fat diet.  Traditionally this is made using beef short ribs with about 25% fat but my recipe uses skirt steak with about half the fat and less then 60 calories per oz.

My Spanish friends call this either tortilla de patatas or tortilla española but this version is very different as this low carb version of the Spanish Omelet use Cauliflower and Saffron.

This Garlic Shrimp recipe has been lighted to avoid using so much olive oil but I can assure you that it satisfies this fat guy when he wants shrimp.  When making tapas I like to peel the shrimp completely before cooking.  When making as a main course I like to peel them after cooking while eating.

Greek salads are wonderful but too often they don't fit into a healthy diet because they're dripping oiling dressing.  This low fat Greek salad recipes lightens the load but not the flavor.

This Low Fat Sherry Vinegar Dressing makes a great addition to salads with chicken or fish added.

Fresh mushrooms and eggs make a great low fat omelet breakfast.  Add some fresh herbs and some turkey bacon and you have a breakfast that will keep the whole family happy.

This is an adaptation of one of my favorite tilapia dishes. By steaming the fish instead of pan frying the flavors combine much better, the dish is much easier to make and you can also cook this on the grill or as a casserole.  You can easily halve this dish or double it depending on how many you're feeding.

This low fat red cabbage slaw is an excellent add to your healthy diet plan because it's fast, flavorful and easy.  This is a great addition to fish tacos, fajitas, sandwiches or just served with beans and chicken.

Cauliflower was never one of my favorite foods until I discovered roasting it because it give it a deep rish flavor!  Now I love it and my wife keeps asking for it.  This recipe is easy, takes almost no prep time and it's a great way to eat this vitamin packed veggie and a cup of cauliflower has less then 30 calories and almost 3 grams of fiber.  Eat up.

I seem to enjoy this as much the next day right out of the fridge as I do when it's hot and a little sprinkle of sherry vinegar is nice.

This is one of the top 10 things that you should try on this site.  These simple green beans become smoking, chewy and more flavorful then you probably thought possible.  You can also serve them as Schezuan green beans, tapas or as finger food by using one of the variations mentioned here.

Salisbury Steak doesn't have to be like those over salty frozen dinners but can be a quick and delicious meal that allows you some meat, gravy and this low fat version goes well with either wine or beer.

This mushroom tapas also makes a great side dish with grilled meats.  The sherry, garlic and smoked paprika add an intersting flavor that turns simple mushrooms into something exotic and wonderful.

Salmon is the read meat of fish.  It's not steak but it taste great, is good for your heart and low in fat.  This recipe is so simple that anyone can do it and you can have a delicious dinner in under 20 minutes.  Fancy French restaurants often serve poached salmon and they wish it was as good as this.

This spicy cucumber salad makes a great Chinese or Asian appetizer or side dish with spicy foods.  It has a clean taste with just a hint of spice that's a good pallette cleanser.  Recently I made a triple batch for a party and everyone loved it.
