Anyone have ideas for low cal recipes?

Stevia did have a peculiar taste at first, but after a couple of cups of tea with just this tiny bit of stevia in it I got to like it. It is super sweet and so much better for you than sugar. I buy it in our local health food store, but a few grocery stores carry it too. I get the powdered version rather than the liquid.

Sorry it wasn't to your liking Slick.

I haven't noticed stevia here anywhere, I will keep my eyes out. One big no no I do is those flavored creamers in my coffee.

I think Stevia may not be approved by the FDA for sale in the US. That would explain why I haven't seen it.

^^ Stevia has been in the US for a while now....

I have seen this at our health food store in Pennsylvania.

That would explain why I haven't seen it, I don't go into health food stores

I had quinoa and talapia and steamed brocolli last night it was really good, I am loving the quinoa, I use molly mcbutter on things and it is really good.

I was looking on allrecipes.com for a fish recipe for Friday night (my family doesn't eat meat on Fridays during Lent). I found this one. I've never made it before but I like the idea of the raspberry flavor.

Ingredients
4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup raspberry vinegar
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 11x7 inch baking dish.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, raspberry vinegar, honey, mustard and dill weed.
Arrange the tilapia filets in a single layer in the prepared baking dish. Pour mixture over the fish filets, coating the filets evenly.
Bake in a preheated oven, uncovered for 20 minutes or until fish is flaky with a fork.

Good for everyone trying to cut back....!!! Proud of everyone....

I bought my husband some Stevia at Walmart....

I simple low fat recipe that we like.....

mix cooked diced chicken with salsa, roll it up in a flour tortilla(or I suppose you could use corn, too) then place in a baking pan like a 9 X 13 one...put in the oven at 350 until it is hot.....It doesn't take long...add some fat free refried beans, and you have a yummy dinner!

Adding salsa to something seems to really perk it up, and it is pretty much fat free. I'll try and think of some more! I'm gonna try some of the ones I've seen on the thread! Good luck everyone!!
