"It's not a lowfat casserole, but it's so delicious you won't care. Add leftover ham for an even heartier meal."

Ingredients: Dijon mustard, fresh ground black pepper...

"This simple dish has a lot going for it: fresh green beans, toasted nuts, and the salty goodness of fresh parmesan slivers. It's very easy, yet looks stunning with the parmesan shards -- and it will definitely impress your guests."

Ingredients: fresh parmesan cheese, unsalted butter...

"We've got a new local dairy (in such a small country, local also means national), that makes some of the best cheeses (and soy milk and soy puddings). This recipe really showcases their ricotta and feta cheeses. This is a great vegetarian dish to serve, we usually have some kind of variation after the Yom Kippur fast day. I also like to add some..."

Ingredients: dried oregano, eggs...

"These are, in a word, sublime. This is not a recipe to cut back on the quality of the ingredients; since you're going to be buying mascarpone cheese anyway (which isn't cheap), go for the gold and buy high-quality chocolate too. I like using the Lindt dark chocolate in this. Thanks to the Cookworks Show on Food Network Canada, where I saw this..."

Ingredients: cocoa powder, eggs...

"If you like loading your baked potatoes will all those delish dairy ingredients, then you'll love this soup recipe, too! Original recipe calls for only four slices of bacon, but I -- being a little piggy -- love the bacon, so we always use more like 8 to 12 slices. You decide which you prefer."

Ingredients: pepper, cream, fresh chives...

"This is a yummy favourite of mine to serve as part of pre-dinner munchies, or as a snack to a group of friends (it also doubles well). I found it many years ago in Out of This World CookBook II. Credit for the recipe goes to Virginia Prentice."

Ingredients: garlic powder, garlic salt...

"I don't care for runny eggs (except eggs benedict) so this hits the spot when I'm in the mood for something more rich and substantial than scrambled eggs, but not gooey (except the cheese). If I have it on hand, I replace one egg with a slice of ham that I fry first."

Ingredients: pepper, eggs, mayonnaise...

Ingredients: lemon juice, parmesan cheese...

"I haven't tried this personally, but will real soon as I love blueberries. A friend gave me this recipe after having it at a brunch party; she was just raving about it."

"Adapted from a recipe I found on one of the South Beach diet sites. These muffins are really good and a real treat for no carbers. I like to put a little tomato paste and skim mozzarella on one for a mini pizza. Enjoy!"

Ingredients: cottage cheese, soy flour...

"This recipe came about because I'm Somersizing and was looking for something fast and easy and basically all I had in the house that fit into my diet was frozen spinach and cream cheese. This was ready in minutes. I actually find myself making this often, either as a side dish, or I eat it straight out of the bowl. I told Yooped this easy SS diet..."

Ingredients: cream cheese, frozen spinach...

"This is one of my favorite recipes, full of Mediterranean flavor and high in calcium. It uses pecorino romano, a salty parmesan-like hard cheese made of sheep's milk. I used a goat's milk feta but you can use any type of feta you can find. It calls for lacinato kale (a/k/a dinosaur kale) which is preferable if you can find it - If not, use..."

Ingredients: pecorino romano cheese, extra virgin olive oil...
