These are low fat and or low calorie recipes, with high nutrition. At the end of each recipe, 2005 USDA Food Pyramid serving sizes are included. following should be noted.

1. I have not used any ingredients with transfats.

2. I have not used any ingredients with saturated fats except for low fat dairy products.

3. I have used Canola oil wherever possible. Canola oil provides the best Omega 3 ratio over other plant oils.

4. I have used Splenda as a sugar substitute. The cooking profile for Splenda and Sugar is same for heat. The granular Splenda is same as table sugar by volume.

5. I have frequently used Fenugreek, Cinnamon, and Cloves in many of the recipes. These ingredients lower blood glucose levels. If you are taking insulin, please consult your physician.

6. When faced with a choice, I elected a more nutritional ingredient over a traditional ingredient.

7. Minimize the number of spices to make curried dishes.
