We were audibly saying, "YUMMMM," as we were testing it. Grab your spoon!

You can marinate this chicken up to 24 hours before baking, but even just 2 hours will give it enough pizazz to be brilliant. We love recipes that combine red onions and fruit.

Many of the pastries you'll encounter in Swedish coffee shops are spiced with cardamom, a somewhat intense flavor often related in the US to Christmas cooking.

You're welcome!

We were going for a slimmed down version of Caesar for this salad and ended up with a garden-fresh simple salad. The Parmesan is more an accent than a main ingredient.

Eggplant is one of those dishes that cooks down, so the serving you end up with is plenty by normal standards, but as we like to stuff ourselves with veggies to stay full for longer, you may want a double servings.

Alternatively, any vegetable will be a nice counter. 

Beef broth cuts down on the ghee needed to replace the tablespoons of butter normally featured in a Steak au Poivre recipe. But we keep the buttery flavor. As it is "Steak with Pepper," there is the addition of Sichuan pepper to the typical black pepper. But if you don't have it, you will still be delighted with simple cracked black pepper. The psyllium husk takes the place of cornstarch to keep your fat-free yogurt from separating. But it's just optics. This one's a winner!

We're leaving out the mayo and sour cream in favor of fat-free plain yogurt, but we're not losing any of the flavor. Fresh herbs and garlic give the dressing punch. Edamame, avocado, and pistachios add interest and texture. Plus a healthy helping of shredded chicken breast makes this a high-protein lunchtime winner. Enjoy!

We sent this one through the test kitchen 3 times to figure out the best way to get the crumbly topping to work.
