How To Keep Crab Cakes From Falling Apart
By
Jennifer IserlohCrab cakes are scrumptious made with sweet fresh crab meat, fresh herbs, mayo and tart bright lemon. Keeping homemade crab cakes from falling apart isn't as hard as you think.
But the bane of crab cakes is scooping them out of a skillet only to have them break into soft, unmanageable lumps. Sure, they still taste good, but keeping them in neat, ... Read More
French Toast with Caramelized Banana and Rum
By
Jennifer IserlohThe French call "French toast," "pain purdue," which means "lost bread" since it's dunked in a sea of eggs and milk. And after having a large plate of it at your local brunch you might feel like you've lost your healthy eating habits, with all that maple syrup, butter, eggs and thick slices of white bread.
But updating this Sunday morning treat ... Read More
Four Rules for Fabulous Healthy Snacks
By
Jennifer IserlohI think of the four "F's" as a guide: fiber, filling, fast, and fun when I'm coming up with the ultimate healthy snack for the day. Healthy snacks should be:

more filling compared to a candy bar or a handful of potato chips for the same or less calories

French Onion Soup with Guinness
By
Jennifer IserlohThis year for St. Patrick's Day, I'm making French onion soup with an Irish twist - it's made with Guinness beer and aged Irish cheddar.
It turns out that the beer's "Guinness is Good for You" slogan from the 1920s might actually have some truth to it, according to the 1993 article from the BBC, "Guinness Could Really Be Good for You." Plus, the beer's ... Read More

Healthy Chicken and Biscuits
By
Jennifer IserlohWhen my Granny made chicken and biscuits she called it "Chicken a la King," a misnomer (Chicken a la King -- a ragout made with mushrooms, sherry and heavy cream served over puffed pastry -- was all the rage in the 1950s). In homage to my Granny's rich dish, I've created a healthier version of chicken and biscuits -- a dish with old time taste with modern ... Read More
Healthy Banana Bread
By
Jennifer IserlohThe Skinny Chef shares her Healthy Banana Bread recipe.
I don't eat cereal that often for breakfast. I'm more of a smoothie or egg gal. But you wouldn't know it if you saw the collection of cereal boxes on top of my fridge -- my husband can't resist those "two for one" bulk cereal boxes at the discount food warehouse where we shop monthly. But ... Read More
Healthy Pancakes with Cinnamon and Chocolate
By
Jennifer IserlohMy pancakes with cinnamon and chocolate look and taste totally decadent, but in fact they're a lot healthier than store-bought pancake mixes. To cut back on fat and calories, I've used sweet potatoes in place of some of the oil and eggs in the batter (adding applesauce to baked goods is so last year -- why not opt for an add-in that will achieve the same ...

Strength Building Meals
By
Jennifer IserlohAbout once a week I crave a big, juicy bistro-style hamburger -- most people do. Of course, it's the taste of a rich, meaty burger that I'm after, but it's also nutritionally smart. A small amount of red meat and other iron-rich foods are an important part of your diet, especially when you're feeling stressed or run down, or when life gets really busy. ... Read More
