Lentils, like beans, add fibre to your diet and are the ultimate convenience legume since they don't require any soaking. This tasty dinner is from "The GI Diet Made Easy" story in our October 2004 issue.
While blue cornmeal forms a colourful crust on salmon, you can substitute regular yellow cornmeal.
As the salmon grills or bakes on the piece of soaked cedar, the wood infuses the fish with a delightfully smoky flavour. Grill asparagus alongside for an easy but very special menu.
Ground beef often goes on sale, and that's the time to buy an extra pound or two for quick weeknight dinners.
Crunchy cakes are a tasty way to use up leftover fish. Form into little fish shapes with carrot and celery eyes and mouths to bring smiles to young faces at the table. Serve with Light Tartar Sauce and a basket of crisp carrot sticks and broccoli and cauliflower florets.
Tilapia is a great (and sustainable) fish option, but you can substitute halibut, catfish, cod or any other firm white-fleshed fish. Serve with lime wedges.
