If you have never tried capers (I hadn't), this is a great way to start. They add a nice spiciness to the sauce. DH loves this dish!

This recipe comes from the old Week 9 WW Recipe Card, with a few additional suggestions.

EASY CHEESE LASAGNA

1 jar (28 oz) spaghetti sauce (look for a lower-calorie/lower fat one)(I like to use a spicy spaghetti sauce because otherwise the lasagna tastes bland to me)

1-2 cups chopped raw vegetables, such as mushrooms, broccoli, bell pepper, zucchini
8oz shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese

Healthy Eating

The Secret to Feeling Fantastic, Looking Younger And Adding Years to Your Life

Healthy eating is essential to your health and well being. In your great grandparents' days, healthy eating was easy. Food was grown on nutrient rich soil without herbicides and pesticides. It was whole, natural and unprocessed. Meals, breads and desserts were cooked or baked in the home from scratch, not produced in a laboratory from chemicals not intended for human consumption.

Most American and European adults face obesity and health related problems. With changing lifestyles, adults fail to pay attention to their nutritional needs. We eat either too much or too little. We are malnourished. A majority of us loses that perfect balance of diet and proper eating habits in the competitive world, where our focus is towards greater earnings. This has affected our lives, and filled it with physical stress and mental pressures. It is high time now that we all give healthy eating first priority and spend our time in better living.

Increasing responsibilities requires one to intake more nutritious and healthy food. With so much to do, your body should get all the essential minerals and vitamins, since improper diets lead to weakness, fatigue and stress. Take precautions and have proper meals at the...

APPETIZERS

Lobster Salad in Endive

Makes 24 appetizers; serves 6 to 8

If you want to be good to yourself and your guests at the same time, ask your fish store to sell you cooked fresh lobster meat, instead of cooking a lobster yourself. This is a great summer appetizer or a special treat for New Year's Eve. This recipe is also good, and not quite so expensive, with cooked shrimp or crabmeat. You'll see that a little salad makes a lot of appetizers.

3/4 pound fresh cooked lobster meat, small-diced

1/2 cup good mayonnaise

1/2 cup small-diced celery (1 stalk)

1 tablespoon capers, drained

11/2 tablespoons minced fresh dill

Pinch kosher salt

Pinch freshly ground black pepper

4 heads Belgian endive

Combine the lobster, mayonnaise, celery, capers, dill, salt, and pepper. With a sharp knife, cut off the base of the endive and separate the leaves. Use a teaspoon to fill the end of each endive leaf... Click here to read the full description!

Food Can Look Good Too...

Dear Friend,

Your cakes taste good. It's okay if they aren't as pretty as someone else's cakes. You really want your cakes to be the centerpiece of the dessert table. You want people to Ooh and Aah when they see your cakes. So what are you doing wrong? You get the same icing as everyone else. Maybe icing the cake to look pretty is just not your forte. You avoid icing a cake, because you know it will not be pretty when you are done. And cupcakes, well you can just forget cupcakes. Trying to get icing on a cupcake is like trying to keep snow from melting in the oven.

It is an impossibility. Don't you wish sometimes you could decorate and cake to give to someone special on their birthday? Are you tired of buying bakery cakes and wishing you could do that yourself? Decorating cookies can be just as frustrating and with the holidays every year. Wouldn't you like to make something that didn't just taste good, but looked good too? Have you tried using a pastry bag? They say it is so easy! Was it easy for you?

How many times have you ended up with icing all over the place and the icing on the cookie or the cake still looked bad. Have you ever tried using a plastic bag by snipping the end off? I don't know about you, but it didn't work so... Click here to read the full description!
