Veggie Pancakes Topped with Fried Eggs
Veggie Pancakes with Fried Eggs. The light coming through our back windows this morning is brighter than usual. The angle in which it reaches the kitchen creates a spot light. On to the stage steps these gorgeous veggie pancakes. I did not plan for this. When I opened the refrigerator door I was reaching for coffee cream. Instead out came zucchini, summer squash, asparagus, carrots and scallions.

Baked Sweet Potato {with Steamed Asparagus, Goat Cheese & Fried Egg}
Baked Sweet Potato {with Steamed Asparagus, Goat Cheese & Fried Egg} While many people enjoy hash browns or home fries for breakfast, we typically don’t think of a baked potato as a go-to morning meal. I’m here to tell you this dish has everything you need (with the exception of a side of bacon) and weighs in at under 250 calories.

Warm 7-Layer Salad {or is it 8-Layers}
This Warm 7-Layer Salad is addicting and gorgeous. There’s so much going on here. Layers and layers of going on. Every bite is unique and delicious. All credit to Rachel Ray for this fabulous recipe. I must admit I was a bit skeptical the first time we made it, but once we took the first bite we were all in. That may have something to do with the wonderful bacon flavor infused throughout the layers.

Moroccan Stuffed Turkey Tenderloin
When making Healthy Choices, one of the first things I add to our weekly dinner rotation is Jenny-O All Natural Turkey Tenderloins. This versatile white meat is actually slightly lower in fat and calories than boneless skinless chicken breasts. And their mild flavor lends itself to recipe creativity. Like this flavor packed colorful Moroccan Stuffed Turkey Tenderloin.
