Fruit and Chicken Salad: The grapes and apricots give this chicken salad extra flavor!

Peaches and Cream Oatmeal
: This is a homemade oatmeal recipe made with fresh peaches and vanilla flavored yogurt for the "cream". I use Splenda instead of sugar.

Fruit Muffins: Made with oat bran, soy, and egg substitute, these fruit muffins are super-healthy.

Outrageous Orange Salad: I found this recipe in the summer and tweaked it a bit. It is light and refreshing any time of year. Fennel is healthy for you in that it provides antioxidant protection and immune support from vitamin c. The fiber, folate, and potassium in the recipe are great for cardiovascular and good colon health.

Fresh Fruit with Ginger Dip: This is a great fruit dip recipe that is both sweet and has a bite of ginger.

Kiwifruit and Quinoa Salad: This delicious salad combines quinoa and green and gold kiwifruit to make the perfect appetizer.

Blueberry Oat Muffins: Using low fat ingredients and egg substitute, these muffins only taste indulgent.

Fresh and Fruity Salad: This is a wonderfully flavorful salad that has a combination of antioxidants and fiber.  Packed with vitamin C, the mint and pineapple helps with digestion.  This is a sweet and light dessert that can be eaten for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or as a snack.

Raspberry-Banana Soy Smoothie: Try this soy-based smoothie on for size. Perfect for a mid-day snack, it delivers 9 grams of protein, 10 grams of fiber and 100 percent delicious flavor. Enjoy in less than five minutes.
