It has been a while since I’ve posted a favorite recipe from Cooking Light! During the 30 days the grain-free plan, I stuck to easy-to-fix vegetables and stir fries, many of which came from Cooking Light. Unfortunately, I did not get near as many pictures and I just don’t think I can post a recipe …

Trying to find new ways to eat vegetables so I won’t get tired of them is…tiring. I need to plan for 3 meals a day but a snack or two so that I’m eating every 4 hours. This is crucial for glucose balance, especially for those of us with a cranky pancreas. I love …
I have found hundreds of recipes designed around the lowly white potato and I honestly don’t think there is a bad one in the bunch. I could eat white potatoes with ice cream and think it’s better than whatever the Queen is serving across the pond. The white potato is the one thing that blocked …
I’ve tried making several cream-based soups into a gluten free version with varied results. Potato flour is the best substitute for regular flour but the soup will have a potato flavor. While I do like a loaded potato with broccoli and cheese, this week I wanted the plain thick creamy broccoli cheese soup without …
No, not really. It’s the day after a fabulous Alabama win and I’m so sick I can’t enjoy it. One day, I’ll be able to breathe normally again. But until then, it’s my favorite time of the year!!! And no separated rib or never-ending bronchitis is going to harsh my mellow. Besides, who can complain …
When the weather turns cold and I have a cold (cleverly disguised with the flu), I always enjoy a good potato soup. But now I have to enjoy it without gluten. I have experimented with other ways to make a creamy soup and with great results. That version was for a slow cooker and included …
I feel like I’ve been devouring anything I can with potatoes lately. And while I’ve always loved potatoes, now it seems they are one of my culinary lifelines. I know that potatoes and rice are not going to cause any digestion problems or possibly cause me to call in a sick day. Whether I’m using …

Stir in salt and pepper. Transfer squash mixture to a serving platter. Sprinkle with cheese and basil.I love the variety of vegetables that …
Summer means grilling and if I had to choose which side to go with my steak, I would have to choose grilled corn. There is something deeply satisfying about crunchy grilled corn with the smoky flavor and char from the hickory chips. And while corn grilled to perfection only needs a little butter and salt, …
This recipe from Cooking Light cookbook Grilling was a natural addition to a big night of welcoming the summer heat by cranking up the charcoal. I usually cook one foil pack of sweet Vidalia onions, and one separate pan of whatever vegetables I have on hand. I really liked cooking these vegetables directly on the …
I’ll be perfectly honest. I have heard of farro, but really didn’t have a driving need to try it. I have a wide variety of whole grains that I enjoy and on a regular basis, and didn’t have a fire going under me to try more. But then I went and visited that food truck …
What is this little red box on my sidebar? That is a link to my profile page on the Cooking Light Blogger’s Connection. I was invited a couple of weeks ago to join this amazing group of foodies who love healthy living and sharing that love with others. For Cooking Light, food is above all …
