Chapter 6 Main Dishes and
Casseroles
NOTE: One of the easiest ways to add rich flavor to the
condensed soup or casserole recipes without adding extra
calories is to use 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon of other
Minor's bases, like Roasted Mirepoix, Onion, or Garlic.
Bases are a much healthier way to create quick broths than
the traditional method of using bullion cubes. Because broth
bases must be refrigerated, they contain far less sodium. You

Chapter 7 Poultry
NOTE: Leftover Molded Chicken Salad (recipe in this
chapter) makes great sandwiches. Put it and lots of lettuce
between two slices of bread and you have a quick lunch. The
lettuce helps keep the bread from getting soggy if you're
preparing the sandwich "to go."
TIP: Steamed mushrooms are a low-calorie way to add
flavor to a dish and "stretch" the meat. If you don't like
mushrooms, you can substitute an equal amount of other
low-calorie steamed vegetables like red and green peppers and
not significantly affect the total calories in the recipe.
Chapter 8 Seafood
Sample Recipe:
A Taste of Italy Baked Fish
Chapter 9 Meats
Sample Recipe:
Pork Broth: Easy Crock-Pot Method
NOTE: This recipe is an adaptation of the "Pork Broth"
recipe shown on page 161 in the book; the cooked pork that
results from this recipe is used in two recipes in this chapter:
Slow-Cooker Pork with Plum Sauce and
Warm Pork Salad. Therefore, I'm featuring the omitted
recipe.
Chapter 10 Pasta and Pizza
Sample Recipe: English Muffin
Pizza
Top each half of an English muffin with your
choice of tomato sauce. Add chopped, free-choice vegetables.
Divide 1 ounce of grated mozzarella cheese between the muffin
halves. Bake in a 400-degree oven until the cheese bubbles, and
you have a meal with 2 Carbohydrate/Starch Exchanges and 1
Medium-Fat Meat Exchange, plus the Exchange Approximation for
your choice of sauce.
