Breakfast-In-A-Glass Smoothie
Here's news for all breakfast skippers; studies show that those who eat breakfast tend to be stronger, smarter, thinner, and happier than those who don't. A great grab-n-go smoothie makes it easy. Kid-friendly and packed with nutrients, a single serving of this delicious orange tinged smoothie delivers as much muscle-building protein as two eggs, and over 20 percent of the daily requirement for vitamins A, C, and calcium. Feel free to serve it with a piece of whole grain toast or whip one up as a nutritious afternoon snack.

This is a terrific family favorite. The thick and velvety Parmesan cream sauce that adorns this dish mimics rich Alfredo sauce (only without the requisite butter and cream). If you don't have bowtie pasta on hand, feel free to substitute any pasta.

Red Velvet Cupcakes with Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting
I can't think of a better way to say " I love you," than a perfect Red Velvet Cupcake. These easy-to-make one-bowl cupcakes take the cake with just 180 calories and a mere teaspoon of added sugar. (For comparison, a typical cupcake bakery Red Velvet Cupcake with Cream Cheese Frosting has over 500 royal calories and a whopping 15 teaspoons of sugar).

Here's a terrific easy stove-top recipe that's filled with all of the same great flavors but none of the excess fat and carbs.

Indonesian Cocktail Meatballs
These are always a hit! I usually triple the recipe. It makes a nice supper with beet pickles, broccoli salad, and cauli-rice or mashed faux potatoes with cauliflower. Take them along on a summer picnic too
