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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

This fat guy prefers this fried rice over any other I've had and many friends request this when coming over and claim that this is the best!  The list of ingredients may seem long but it's not as bad as it seems.  I highly recommend that you put the chopped garlic and ginger in small bowls to keep them out of the way.

Sure watermelon may sound strange but what's more refreshing at a summer cookout then watermelon?  Why wait until the end of the meal when you can serve it with grilled food and trust me, this fat guy loves this with grilled food.  I've recieved at least 3 phone calls asking for this recipe as well so everyone likes it.

Not only is this white bean dip low in cholesterol but it's filled with fiber and protein.  This fat guy and his slim wife loves this on toast, bruschetta or my baked pita chips.  It rocks!
