Get-Skinny Dinners to Help You Lose Weight
Delicious, low-calorie dinner recipes to help you slim down.
If you’re trying to slim down, our low-calorie dinners to help you lose weight are delicious, filling meals. Many of these light and healthy dinner recipes feature lean protein, whole grains and salad—dinner components that can leave you feeling satisfied (find out why here). Try our Quick Chicken Cacciatore for a low-calorie dinner recipe perfect for an easy weeknight meal or Aparagus-Mushroom Mini Lasagnas for a filling dinner.
Quick Chicken Cacciatore
This version of the classic Italian recipe, chicken cacciatore, is done in half the time of most traditional versions, but is still full of rich flavor thanks to plenty of mushrooms, tomatoes and herbs.....
Loaded Spinach Salad
Like many spinach salads, this one features lots of chopped-up hard-boiled egg. But since most of the calories in an egg are in the yolk, this recipe uses just two whole eggs, plus the whites from six additional eggs, for a satisfying spinach salad that keeps the calories in check....

Get-Skinny Salads
Nothing like a good salad! From the EatingWell website it's Get-Skinny Salads. Check out the EatingWell website to find all kinds of delicious and healthy recipes. http://www.eatingwell.com/
Get-Skinny Salads
Satisfying low-calorie salad recipes to help you lose weight.
Healthy salads don't need to be skimpy! Low-calorie recipes like Kale Salad with Bacon-Blue Cheese Vinaigrette and Salmon & Roasted Vegetable Salad are deliciously hearty and satisfying. Packed with flavorful ingredients, these healthy salad recipes are perfect for weeknight dinners. And many of these low-calorie recipes, including healthy pasta salad recipes, egg salad recipes and more, lend themselves well to being packed for lunch the next day.
Kale Salad with Bacon-Blue Cheese Vinaigrette
Hot roasted potatoes in this healthy kale salad recipe wilt the kale just enough to make it tender. Bacon and blue cheese layer on smoky, salty flavors to stand up to the flavor of the kale. Go for a strong blue cheese—we enjoy the tanginess of Maytag. Serve this salad with steak or chicken......
Chopped Ham & Apple Salad with Creamy Parmesan Dressing
This healthy main-course chopped salad recipe pairs bitter escarole and radicchio with sweet apple, smoky ham and crunchy pecans. But the pairing possibilities are limitless—you can also use cooked chicken and tangerines instead of ham and apples or bell pepper in place of the radishes. Serve with pumpernickel bread toasted with extra-sharp Cheddar cheese....
Salmon & Roasted Vegetable Salad
Toss roasted vegetables and salmon with a flavor-packed vinaigrette to serve on top of greens for a hearty dinner salad. For a twist, add a poached or fried egg on top. Serve with: Toasted whole-grain baguette and a glass of Riesling......

22 Foods to Avoid with Diabetes
Here's some help to alert you on 22 Foods to Avoid with Diabetes. It's from the Diabetic Living On Line website, which is stocked full of Diabetic Friendly Recipes. http://www.diabeticlivingonline.com/diabetic-recipes
22 Foods to Avoid with Diabetes
These top food offenders contain high amounts of fat, sodium, carbs, and calories that may increase your risk of high cholesterol, high blood pressure, heart disease, uncontrolled blood sugar, and weight gain. The good news is you can indulge in your favorite foods and still eat healthfully with our satisfying and delicious alternatives.
Think Twice Before Eating These Foods
At Diabetic Living, we believe that eating with diabetes doesn't have to mean deprivation, starvation, or bland and boring foods. However, some foods really are best left on the table or in the store. Everyone -- with diabetes or without -- would be wise to avoid or limit the foods on this list because they are high in saturated fat, sodium, calories, or carbs, or might contain trans fats. High amounts of sodium and saturated fat can lead to heart disease, while excess sugars, high carb counts, and added calories can cause unwanted weight gain and blood sugar spikes.
If you see some of your favorite foods on this list, don't despair: We've picked healthier options for you to choose from that taste great. So you can have your fries and eat them, too -- provided they're baked rather than deep-fat fried.
Nachos
You walk into a restaurant and you're feeling starved. A quick scan of the menu and there they are: nachos, one of your favorites. You order them as an appetizer and also order a meal. Unfortunately, most restaurant nacho orders equate to and often exceed an entire meal's worth of calories, carbs, and fat. For example, a regular order of Chili's Classic Nachos has 830 calories, 59 grams of fat, and 39 grams of carb.....
Coffee Drinks
A simple cup of joe with a little milk or even half-and-half can be a low-calorie beverage perfect for a person with diabetes. But many coffee-shop drinks rival decadent desserts for their high calorie, carb, and fat contents. For example, a 16-ounce Starbuck's White Chocolate Mocha (with whipped cream and 2 percent milk) comes in at 470 calories and 63 grams of carb. Similarly, a medium Dunkaccino contains 350 calories, while the large size has almost 500 calories.....

Quick Low-Calorie Dinner Recipes
Just because your in a hurry doesn't mean you still can't prepare a healthy meal. To help you out, from the EatingWell website it's Quick Low-Calorie Dinner Recipes. http://www.eatingwell.com/
Quick Low-Calorie Dinner Recipes
Healthy dinner recipes for 350 calories or less.
It’s easy to grab takeout when you’re busy, but these low-calorie recipes are just as easy and quick to prepare so you can have a healthy dinner on the table in no time!
Hot Chile Grilled Cheese
This deconstructed version of a chile relleno turned sandwich packs some heat and an ooey-gooey filling. We like the flavor of sourdough, but any kind of bread will work well. Serve with: Coleslaw and sliced pineapple.....
Shrimp Po' Boy
This twist on the Louisiana favorite piles grilled shrimp and creamy-dressed cabbage onto a crusty bun. Bread that's soft on the inside and crusty on the outside is perfect for a Po' Boy sandwich. We grill both sides of a whole-wheat bun for that added crunch. You may need a few extra napkins to enjoy it, but this quick and easy sandwich is well worth it. Serve with: Sauteed corn and bell peppers....
Chicken & White Bean Salad
Zucchini and celery give this chicken-and-bean salad a nice crunch. We like serving it over a bed of slightly bitter escarole and radicchio, but any type of salad greens will work. Recipe by Nancy Baggett for EatingWell.....
