As a follow up to Do Unhealthy Food Ads Target Minorities? I thought it would be fun to share some healthy recipes. Corey, one of my recruiters enlightened me to a great site, www.myrecipes.com/recipes where you can view a host of recipes from various cooking magazines. My favorite is Cooking Light because it provides you with a break down on the nutritional information so you know exactly what (calories, fat, cholesterol, etc.) you are feeding your family.

Hi Vickie,
This receipe appeals to me for 3 reasons:
1) fast (10 Min and COOK TIME: 10 Min)
2) simple (most ingredients are in your cabinet)
3) something new!
Thank you for sharing and I look forward to trying!
