Healthy Recipes

[bsellis 105]

Has anyone watched this new show on CBS called Recipe Rehab? They take a family's unhealthy favorite dish and try to make something similar yet healthy. 2 cooks, 2 recipes and the family cooks them and chooses their favorite. I was very disappointed to find that you cannot get the recipes online. They lead you to believe you can by directing you to visit their website and then try to sell you the Recipe Rehab cookbook for $15. Ok, I don't know about ya'll but when you have Pinterest and the internet why would you buy a cookbook?

Which brings me to the reason for this topic. I came across the website cookinglight.com. It's from the magazine but guess what? You can get free recipes! They look fantastic. I absolutley love Mexican food and came across a ton of recipes that I can eat without the guilt. Tonight I'm trying blackened tilapia baja tacos. I don't think I'll be disappointed. Another of my favorite sites for healthy recipes is hungry-girl.com. I do own one of the cookbooks. A little disappointed because many recipes are for individual portions. I'm trying to get my family on board with healthy eating (without them really knowing it ). But the website seems to have more for cooking for families.

Anyone else have any favorite sites you visit for healthy recipes? Please share!!

OMG, I love and really miss Mexican food. I'll be checking this site out this week.

And yes, I saw one episode of Recipe Rehab and one recipe was band friendly and the other not so much. The family went for the recipe with more starch and fewer vegetables.

I agree that a lot I've seen isn't band friendly but the last one I saw they made a black bean purée that looked so good. I'm sure I can find a similar recipe.
