Some of Whaledancer's favorite light and healthy recipes

These are recipes that taste good first, and also happen to be healthful. They are generally heart-healthy, low cholesterol, low calorie, and suitable for diabetics, but they’re also good enough that you’ll enjoy them even if you don’t care about healthy eating.

These aren’t frou-frou recipes with 47 steps invented by a professional chef with a staff of helpers, they’re plain home cooking.  Many of them are my own invention, some I adapted from recipes that were posted on the Weight Watchers message boards or that I culled from other sources.  Whenever possible, I have credited the orginal source.

Each recipe contains nutritional information. 

A note to those who are on Weight Watchers: these recipes are Core, unless otherwise noted. Some are Core plus one low-point ingredient. Points per serving are given for those following the Flex plan.
