This is the third muffin recipe in three days! I tried to pick a true variety of muffins, to go with the ones already posted, but even beyond these I have created several others! If people enjoy these let me know and I’ll post more! Without rehashing this topic too much (there’s more details in the write up on the OG of my muffins — the “Better” Blueberry Muffin recipe) it’s important to start with reason I call my muffin…
The taste of an apple pie for just 97 calories and 1 gram of fat? Plus 6 grams of protein? Worth trying, right? These muffins take a bit more effort but they’re worth it!
Another muffin recipe – easy to make, and just 104 calories & 7 grams of sugar (plus 6 grams of protein)… and full of raspberries and white chocolate chips. Worth a try, right?

Confetti Bean Salad – a quick and easy nutrient dense recipe full of slow-burning carbs to help fight off hunger. It’s a great source of plant-based protein too!
How about a fat-free, no-sugar added substitute that will fill your craving for a cold, creamy treat? Give these Frozen Blueberry Bites a try!
A quick and easy 95-calorie version of a classic dessert, this Dark Chocolate Panna Cotta is guilt-free way to get your chocolate fix!
Panna Cotta is a traditional Italian dessert of sweetened cooked cream, stiffened with gelatin. So, making a version devoid of any cream might seem to be a bit of a cheat, but since my version still eats good, and dramatically cuts down on the fat and calories, I think most people won’t mind too much. Previously I posted my recipe for a Strawberry Panna Cotta. That recipe works great, and can easily be changed to a Blueberry Panna Cotta by…
When we were menu planning for last year’s Super Bowl, we thought a turkey & bean chili sounded like a great option … if only the typical chili recipe wasn’t so high in calories and fat. Rather that come up with another option, I thought I’d create a chili recipe of my own. To do so, I just looked at my favorite chili recipes and tried to determine which parts of the recipes were the most quintessential to the “chili”…
