In my recipe for Smoked Salmon Rolls you’ll get the typical flavor and texture you have grown to love with loaded bagels, but with whole grain tortillas instead. And with more fiber and fewer carbs!

Looking for a handheld appetizer or anytime favorite that’s attractive, tasty, and pretty nutritious, too? Introducing my Polenta Bites with their crunchy exteriors, creamy interiors, earthy topping and tomatoey sauciness!

Searching for a spread that tastes as good as it looks, isn’t crazy in calories or fat and can please a crowd or two? Surprise! This recipe for Cauliflower and White Bean Pate is all this and much more!

Seems like a zillion tuna spread/salad recipes exist for an equal number of tuna tastes. This recipe for Tuna Caper Spread features the brininess of capers, anchovies and sun-dried tomatoes without going overboard in sodium since they may be rinsed before using. The freshness of lemon and parsley elevate its character from tinned to tantalizing! An occasional taste treat—in no time!

One of the most favored taste combinations in the United States since the mid-1900s are Buffalo wings, un-breaded chicken wing sections that are generally deep-fried and coated with a vinegar-based cayenne pepper hot sauce and melted butter. Buffalo wings are served hot, alongside celery sticks and/or carrot sticks, with either Bleu cheese or Ranch dressing for dipping.
