Created by Steve
It's not easy watching a football game at home without craving something salty, spicy and crunchy and these Baked Tortilla Chips can be a life saver.  The best thing is that they don't take long and you can spice them any way like so ladies add a little spice in your man's life and guys just enjoy your favorite flavorings.
Buffalo Balls And Spinach Pasta
Created by Steve
I made buffalo meat balls the other day and they rocked.  Mixed with spinach they made the perfect hearty pasta dish to satisfy this Fat Guy.  I had the ground bison in the fridge because it was on sale and my lovely wife wanted to use it for something but never did.
Drunken Grilled Pineapple w/ Rum Sauce
Created by Steve
Grilled Pineapple With Rum Sauce is not a sissy man's dessert but a guy's way of making something sweet and tasty for the ladies while still combining fire and booze.  What more could you want?
Easy Fillet Mignon With Mushrooms
Created by Steve

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.

Fish Tacos
Created by Steve
The healthy fish tacos fit perfectly into most diets because they're tasty, low calorie and most of us don't eat enough fish.  Corn tortillas don't have as much fat and calories as you might suspect so eat up.
Grilled Pineapple and Cantaloupe
Created by Steve
Combing fruit and fire is my style of cooking.  Grilled Pineapple and Cantaloupe are perfect desserts if you have a hot grill and want to keep the entire family happy or impress your guests with your fire handling skills.
Grilled Salmon
Created by Steve
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.
Hot As Hell Pepper Dip
Created by Steve
This Hot As Hell Pepper Dip is great served with chips, pitas, bread or served on the side of grilled meats.  I love this stuff but have learned to tone it down for the family style cookouts but poker night gets it full hot on!
Italian Greens, Beans and Bacon Pasta
Created by Steve

Italian Greens, Beans and Bacon Pasta is a very hearty Italian classic dish and this recipe makes it healthier for you too.  You have hearty greens, filling beans and the flavor of bacon added to your pasta.  What more could you want?

 

Leftover Turkey Enchiladas
Created by Steve
After eating leftover turkey and dressing for a couple of days you might appreciate this recipe because it adds a spicy twist that you may have been missing during the holidays.  Tomatillos and turkey are excellent together so this is a perfect recipe to use up that leftover turkey.
Low Fat Apple Cider Dressing
Created by Steve

This low fat dressing was created one night when my wife was out of town and I was bored.  It turns out to be really good and friends love it.  This is really nice with a salad topped with grilled chicken.

Low Fat Baked Pita Chips
Created by Steve
Baked Pita Chips are crunchy, low fat and go great with hummus or other low fat bean dips.  They're a usual request when we're having parties.
Low Fat Berry Parfait
Created by Steve

Low Fat Berry Parfaits may seem like having breakfast for dessert but it's totally different.  OK, maybe it's not so much different but if you use cool looking parfait glasses or glass coffee mugs it seems different.

Low Fat Greek Salad
Created by Steve
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.
Low Fat Salad Nicoise
Created by Steve
Low Fat Salad Nicoise is a wonderful way to pack a lot of vitamins into healthy diet and the canned tuna offers enough lean protein to make this a meal.
Low Fat Sherry Vinegar Dressing
Created by Steve

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

Low-Fat Lemon Garlic Hummus
Created by Steve

Hummus is a great way to get some extra cholesterol lowering fiber in a low fat dip that can easily double as a spread for sandwiches. While you can serve this with bread, toast or crackers you might want to try adding it to a veggie platter with carrots, celery or bell peppers.

I almost always double this recipe because it keeps in the refrigerator for a long time and it's versatile for snacks, lunches, dinners and hummus on whole grain toast makes a hearty breakfast.

Mediterranean Chicken Thighs
Created by Steve
This makes a great sauce right in the pan and is basically hand off for the last 10 minutes of coocking so you have time to finish anything else.  On New Years Eve when Alana and Genna were over I used that time to enjoy a glass of wine Wink
No Sugar Very Berry Syrup
Created by Steve
My 4 year old daughter loves this no sugar added berry syrup and has no idea there's no sweeteners added to it.  My wife sneaks a little honey but since her father raises bees she sneaks honey on everything.  Put this on the stove before you start cooking french toast or pancakes and will be hot and ready by the time those are done.

Created by Steve
Orange Glazed Carrots is an easy dish to make about 10 minutes and it's a good way to eat your veggies.

Created by Steve
Low fat breakfast burritos are fast, easy to make and will make you forget you're eating like a fat guy on a diet.  The truth is that I'll put just about any leftovers in my breakfast burritos such as any greens, beans, meat, seafood, vegetables and even a little pasta.  Try this one and experiment later.
