In the South Beach Diet Cookbook there is a recipe I love. Eggplant Chicken Casserole. I've made it in the Rectangle Bar pan (used two) for a party of 12. Served Strawberry Yogurt pie for dessert. Also demonstrated the carving of a pineapple, and slicing of strawberries in the Egg Slicer Plus. Everyone was full of compliments for my efforts.

Go to this wonderful board (I used to be a community leader of theSouth Beach Diet board). You can find summaries of rules and phases, and recipes at the bottom.

Your mouth will be watering.

How about a lite caesar salad with grilled salmon on top? You can sear it on the grill pan.

Roast a bunch of veggies, tossed in a zip lock with Lite Ken's Northern Italian dressing, then roast at 425 for 22 minutes. You will think you've gone to heaven.

Hard boiled eggs filled with a lite humus filling (the dip found in It's Good for you),
