I like to steam our veges. You can get a cheap steamer basket and put in your own pans. I like to do carrots, broccoli and califlower together. The carrats take the longest so I put them in first then add the rest about 3-5 minutes later - cook a little longer - depending if you like the veges a little crunchy or very tender. You can add Molly Mcbutter - butter flavored powder - I like mine plain.

Another great recipe is to take a pork tenderloin roast - slice it and make a paste of lemon juice, garlic, pepper and salt to taste. Brush mixture between slices (dont cut all the way thru) wrap in aluminum foil tightly and let it marinade (I have done it without letting it sit) Cook in foil at 350 - 375 . I always put it in a glass pan or baking dish in case there is some juice that runs out

Thank you to everyone who posted their recipes. All of them look delicious. emsgranny, I will have to make the steamed veggies, it’s been too long since I made them. I think I’ll dip them in Greek yogurt. The pork tenderloin looks yummy too and will make this for company.

Lemon Blueberry & Chicken Salad


2 c. fresh blueberries, divided
1 container low fat Lemon Yogurt
3 Tbl. Mayo
Salt (if needed)
2 c. cooked, cubed chicken breast
½ c. sliced green onions
¾ C. diagonally sliced celery
½ C. diced sweet red pepper

Reserve a few blueberries for garnish. In a medium bowl, combine yogurt, mayo, and salt. Add remaining blueberries, the chicken, green onions, celery, and the bell pepper; mix gently. Cover and refrigerate to let flavors blend, at least 30 minutes. Serve over endive or other greens, garnish with remainder blueberries and lemon slices, if desired.
This sounds so good & hope to make it this weekend, was just wondering what size container of yogurt you used? Thanks!
