This Skinny Loaded Nachos with Turkey, Beans and Cheese recipe contains tortilla chips, mexican cheese, turkey breast, pico de gallo, light sour cream and more.
Though filling enough as a main dish, you can also serve smaller portions of this creamy, cheesy casserole as a tasty side to scrambled eggs. We enjoyed the way the Classic Melts cheese blend melted over the casserole; substitute cheddar cheese if you can't find this product.
This is not at all difficult to make - although you can use uncooked bacon strips I prefer to semi-cook the bacon in the oven first just to release some fat but do not cook until crisp or wrapping it around the chicken will be impossible - the chicken may be prepared up to one day in advance, which makes this great dinner party food, just cover refrigerate and mix up the sauce when ready to bake :)
This 5-star shrimp and orzo recipe has simple ingredients, but it is full of flavor. Parmesan cheese works in this dish, too, if you don't have pecorino Romano on hand. Serve leftovers as a great cold pasta salad for lunch.
The sandwich starts with thick rustic Italian bread, hearty enough to support the fillings but still tender. There are three kinds of cheese in play...and the toasty bread is infused with garlic flavor by rubbing it with cut garlic cloves.
This Chicken Breast Stuffed with Cheese, Tomato and Basil recipe contains bone-in chicken breast halves, olive oil, Fontina, broccoli rabe, olive oil and more.
Besides being a great side to simple roast chicken or beef tenderloin, seasonal squash provides more than a day's worth of vitamin A and about half the daily recommended vitamin C.
Some people don't like to have soup during the summer. But, I love it for a go-to lunch. This is one of my favorite soups, an all-time comfort food for me. During a recent bout with the flu, I whipped up a batch and froze the extra. It reheated really well in the microwave, so it may be a real keeper for freezer cooking.
