This updated take on colcannon gets a nutrient boost from kale and substitutes less-starchy cauliflower for some of the traditional white potato. We've used a food processor to create a superfine purée, but you can use a food mill for an even smoother texture. This dish has a fair amount of fat, but most of it comes from the salmon and olive oil, which both contain heart-smart unsaturated fats. The salmon also provides heart protective omega-3 fats.
Bright, citrusy lemongrass, heady star anise and fresh ginger add flair to store-bought beef broth in this Asian-inspired twist on chicken noodle soup. Different brands of udon noodles vary greatly in sodium content. Look for noodles that have about 400 milligrams of sodium per 200-gram package.

These Salmon Cakes also make great bite-size party appetizers—just halve each cake and round the cut edge. Bake in 500°F oven, turning halfway through, for 10 minutes. Top each with a dollop of Spicy Tartar Sauce and sliced green onion.
A simple mustard vinaigrette is all you need to amp up the fresh flavour of salmon. Currants add a touch of sweetness to the Swiss chard, but you can also use dried cranberries for an extra pop of colour. Chard stems are denser than the leaves, so be sure to cook them for longer.
Not all soba noodles are created equal. Check the ingredient list on the package to make sure your noodles have been made with 100 percent buckwheat flour. (Many brands use a mix of buckwheat and regular wheat flour.) Look for gluten-free soba noodles in health food stores.
