Saucy Supper Delights:
Sweet-and-Sour Chicken and Rice
Creamy Chipotle Manicotti
Quick Supper Ideas - For a kicked-up sandwich spread, stir a little basil or dried tomato pesto into light or fat-free
mayonnaise. Pesto is also great whisked into vinegar and a touch of olive oil to make a tangy salad
dressing or marinade for chicken or pork.
- For a really quick meal, cook lean ground beef or
low-fat spicy sausage; drain. Stir in a jar of pasta sauce (pick any flavor you like). Add a splash
of red wine; simmer until heated through. Serve over pasta. Sprinkle with shredded Parmesan, Asaigo,
or Romano cheese.
