  1. Healthy Recipe, Peas and Collards

    Even if you don’t buy into the old Southern superstition that eating black-eyed peas and greens on January 1 will bring you prosperity, your body will thank you for welcoming this combo to your dinner table any other time of the year. Like other dark-green, leafy vegetables, collards are chock-full of vitamins A and C, […]


  2. Healthy Recipe, Gingerbread Cookies

    Here’s a healthy version of your favorite classic gingerbread cookies made with a few simple substitutions. Use whole wheat pastry flour for all-purpose flour, coconut oil for butter, and coconut sugar for brown sugar. The recipe yields around 32 cookies, depending on their size, from Cook and Kate. Ingredients Cookies Lemon icing (optional) Instructions If you’re […]


  3. Healthy Recipe, Pork Chops with Jammy Mustard Glaze

    Bone-in pork chops are fast, versatile and economic protein choices – and they can be good for you, if you cook them right. Consider this genius recipe contributed by Ali Slagle to New York Times Cooking editor Emily Weinstein’s “Easy Weeknight Dinners.” Here they are seared in a small amount of oil, then dressed up […]


  4. Healthy Recipe, Winter Salad

    Leaving a holiday table without feeling bloated and fearful of the next day’s bathroom scales can be hard. But enjoying the feast without letting it weigh you down is possible. The key is making room for dishes like this festive salad, adapted from Julia Turshen’s “What Goes with What.”  It’s light on the calories and fat […]


  5. Healthy Recipe: Green Bean Casserole

    Forget the “classic” recipe that relies on canned beans and high-sodium, canned soups. Here’s a fresh, healthy version of a reliable holiday dish we can all feel good about. Ingredients Directions 1. Preheat oven to 350F and lightly spray a 2-quart baking dish with cooking oil. 2. For crunchy beans, steam over a pot of boiling […]


  6. Healthy Recipe, Quick Jambalaya

    Jambalaya is not a dish we typically think of as quick or particularly healthy. Still, it can be both without losing any of its Creole character, as demonstrated by this lightened-up recipe. It’s inspired by one created by Louisiana-born food writer Vallery Lomas and featured in “Easy Weeknight Dinners” curated by New York Times Cooking […]


  7. Healthy Recipe, Broccoli Soup

    Cream of broccoli soup is a soothing way to boost your antioxidant intake. But most bowls come loaded with fat and calories as well. This slimmed-down version, lightly adapted from one on Erin Clarke’s wellplated.com website, skips the cream and goes easy on the butter and cheese without forgoing any rich taste. Adding cauliflower to the puree […]


  8. Healthy Recipe, Mango Lassi

    Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights, is a five-day annual celebration in late October and early November, with festivities that include prayer, fairs, fireworks, gift-giving, and feasting. Whatever your heritage, it’s a great time to share a feast of Indian-inspired dishes with friends, whether prepared or picked up from a restaurant or market. And whatever […]


  9. Healthy Recipe, Red Lentil Soup

    Split red lentils differ from the larger green and brown ones in that they cook much faster, have a somewhat sweeter and nuttier taste, and, because they break down more easily, are often used as thickeners, particularly in Indian dals and curries. But like all lentils, they’re loaded with nutritional attributes: filling, gluten-free, and high […]


  10. Healthy Recipe, Cauliflower Parmesan

    The classic chicken and eggplant Parmesan you see on Italian menus typically involves heavy breading, copious amounts of oil for frying, and blankets of oozy cheese. This version, from Virginia Willis’s “Bon Appetit, Y’all,” dramatically cuts the fat and boosts the nutritional value, without sacrificing any of the satisfaction. “Steaks” cut from whole heads of […]
