Have I ever told you that one of my favorite sources for meal planning is the Woman’s Day Month of Menus? I noticed this month (March 2011), than many of the dinner suggestions are low fat and include the recipes.
New England Seafood Chowder
With the weather beginning to warm up and still cool nights, I was especially intrigued with the New England Seafood Chowder. Normally I avoid cream based soups because of the high calories. This chowder recipe uses cream of celery soup and I was able to use my forever favorite Mootopia Skim Milk. It was an extremely easy recipe using a crock-pot for 6-8 hours and throwing in the seafood in the last 15 minutes! My husband, John, loved it as well! You can find the complete recipe here .
Turkey Taco Skillet
The Turkey Taco Skillet was fast and easy as well. This dish was perfect for spring break and my teens coming and going. It made a lot and was very filling and healthy! I didn’t tell them it was healthy and would recommend for your every day eating using 1 cup each of the water and brown instant rice instead of two. The carbs were a little higher than I normally would want.

This would also be a great dish the night before a race or cycling event ride!
