Lean BBQ Pulled Pork

I scream, you scream, we all scream for BBQ!  That’s how it goes, right??  I LOVE BBQ, but often it’s made with fatty cuts of meat.  Well, in typical RD fashion, I’ve found a healthy and easy modified BBQ!  This is my take on a pulled pork… except lean!  And super easy!  Cue… the crock pot.

Rotel Skillet Enchiladas

I’m a Texas girl, so I LOVE my Mexican food.  But as you all probably know, Mexican food doesn’t always love me (health-wise anyways).  It is typically loaded with cheese, sour cream sauce, fried, or loaded with high fat/calorie meats.  Mexican food is also typically heavy on the carbs, which this dish is not.  So I love this Rotel Skillet Enchilada recipe.  Not only is it healthy, but it is SO quick and easy!

Skinny Coconut Curry

I LOVE curries.  Like… could eat them daily.  But unfortunately they are typically made with high saturated fat creams and/or coconut milks.  This not only bumps up the artery clogging saturated fats in the dish, but the calories too!  So for years (no joke) I have pondered how to make and curry dish that gave me that same creaminess and coconutty flavor, but none of the saturated fats and calories.  And guess what… I found it!  This dish uses high protein, low saturated fat and calorie Greek yogurt for the creaminess and coconut extract for an almost NO calorie coconut flavor.  “Whaaaaaaaaaaaat??  Is this real life, Lauren?”  Yes friends, this is real life.  Real curry life.  Real low calorie, low saturated fat curry life.  And welcome to it.

Crock Pot Chicken Enchiladas

I’m from Texas, so it’s only natural that I LOVE Mexican food.  Like… LOVE.  And living in Colorado, I miss it.  It’s just not the same here.  Are you crying for me yet?  So not only have I had to take the responsibility upon myself to learn how to cook good Mexican food, I have also had to find a way to make it healthy.  And I did just that with this recipe.
