BANANA BREAD CAKE We like cake every now and then, so why not have it and cut the fat and frosting, using jams and jellies? Instead of frosting the whole bread cake, we just tab a bit of topping onto each bite, or not. Lucky Leaf Lemon Topping is my favorite! Plus we add some […]
FROZEN CHERRY SMOOTHIE Using ice in smoothies makes it too cold for my throat, but frozen fruit creates a perfect chill! Serves 2
Everyone who has lost weight knows that nuts are not allowed on a regular basis, unless you can eat three and three only of any particular nut.

GOOD MORNING CLEVELAND. WELCOME TO TODAY. TIME FOR BREAKFAST. A couple of days ago I read a headline to an article about losing weight by eating ice-cream for breakfast. I didn’t read the article. Yesterday, Steve brings home with a bunch of other groceries vegan ice-cream, coconut whip and Hershey’s Syrup. Wow I thought, just […]
Chef Sharon: Haven’t tried it, but I will. Why Aren’t You Turning Almonds into Milk? It’s an established fact that almond milk is one of the great plant-based milk innovations. So believe us when we say you need this. In addition to being dairy-free, lactose-free, and vegan, almond milk is super high in vitamin E. […]
ROASTED YAM STEAKS – fat free Tired of the same old mashed yams? Or the cubed and roasted style? Me too. Steve doesn’t like the texture. So what do I do with yams on sale? Try something new. Yam steaks! Pour the SMOKY CRANBERRY ORANGE GRAVY over, top with some pine nuts and a […]
QUINOA APPLE PINE NUT STUFFING low fat This is my gluten-free, bread-free, animal-free, low-fat stuffing.

Makes almost 7 cups
DANDELION COLESLAW A beautiful looking, feeling, tasting coleslaw from start to finish. I’ll bet you never had a dandelion green coleslaw. Well, there’s no time better than now – if you can locate the greens of course. I eat this salad as the whole meal. Winner Winner Dandelion Dinner! I love it! Steve too! […]
