Kashi Sweet and Sour Chicken. It was much too sweet for me, but I'm very picky about sweet and sour sauce. I've only found one restuarant that had awesome sweet and sour sauce, but they are now closed. :(
Turkey and Quinoa Soup Recipe (sort of)
1/2 lbs. ground turkey breast
Chicken broth
Baby carrots
Celery
Yellow summer squash
Zucchini
Eggplant
Chervil
Lemon thyme
Arugula
Sage
Swiss chard
Quinoa
This is more of an ingredients list then a recipe. Feel free to substitute/leave out herbs. I rarely ever measure when I make soup; I usually just chop and toss. The key is to taste the broth and herbs as you go; start with a small amount and slowly add more until you like the taste. Remember, the flavor gets better the longer it cooks. Enjoy!
Low-fat Mock Hollandaise Sauce Recipe (Ready in 10 minutes too!)
1/4 c. plain low-fat yogurt
1/4 c. light mayo (with omega-3 fat)
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. dijon mustard
Optional
1/4 c. skim milk
Yellow food coloring
Combine ingredients (except sugar) with a wisk in a small sauce pan. Heat over a medium/high stove, stirring often. Slowly add sugar, tasting as you go. Remove when warm. If the sauce is too thick, thin with a small amount of milk (no more than 1/4 cup). As is, it will be cream in color, add food coloring if you'd like a yellow color. Enjoy!
Makes 1/2 c. sauce = 4 servings of 2 tbs.
1 serving has 60 calories and 5g fat (Using 1/4 cup skim milk).
(Total sauce contains 240 calories, 20g fat, 4g monounsaturated fat, 2g saturated fat)
Authentic Hollandaise sauce: (2 tbs) 174 calories, 19g fat, 11g saturated fat!

Yes, it's my little pet project :D I'm glad you're enjoying my blog.
Unfortunately, I don't give out my address online or through e-mails. Thank you for the offer though. :D
yummy, this looks like a great recipe!
I wanted to add that you could probably add a pinch of turmeric instead of food coloring to make it yellow, and just a pinch wouldn't affect the taste.
