"I began making these about 22 years ago when a friend in nursing school with me used to feed me regularly and everyone loved her stuffed peppers.

You can use red peppers as well though my favorite..."

"A recipe I found on www.allrecipes.com that I modified to fit my allergies and our tastes. We like our oriental food saucy, so I made extra sauce and added water chestnuts for DD. This has a kick to it from the ginger, red pepper flakes and the chili paste. Makes 6 1-cup servings. This is a WW friendly recipe, if you use 96% lean ground beef. Points..."

"I was going through my grocery the other day and was happily surprised to find in the Asian foods section a type of noodle called shirataki. I was very happy with they because my father is on a low carb diet and is missing pasta terribly, and these long white noodles only had 1.5 carbs in 1 serving. So, I bought two water patched bags of noodles, some..."

Ingredients: cornstarch, dark sesame oil...

"Compromising on calories shouldn't mean compromising on taste. So I came up with this dish that can be a complete meal or served as a side with lean meat. If you have them available, you could add fresh herbs- rosemary or basil would compliment the other flavours nicely. Serves 4 as a side or 2 as a lunch. By my calculations, this recipe contains..."
