Whole Wheat Banana Nut Bread

getfit23 Whole Wheat Banana Nut Bread
"This is a moist banana bread recipe that I make fairly often with leftover, very ripe bananas. I usually freeze my old bananas until I have enough for a recipe or two. Just peel, break in half, and freeze in a plastic bag. To use, just thaw and add to mixing bowl. I have also used applesauce in place of the oil to make this low fat. It is not quite as moist, but the flavor is still just as good."

Penne Pasta with Cannellini Beans and Escarole

getfit19 Penne Pasta with Cannellini Beans and Escarole
"This is a great pasta dish. The hardest part of the whole recipe is cutting the escarole. It is fast, simple, and delicious! What more could you ask for? With a loaf of Italian bread it goes a long way. Enjoy!"

Turkey Cabbage Rolls

getfit23 Turkey Cabbage Rolls
"This is my version of cabbage rolls using ground turkey instead of ground beef. This dish freezes well, so you can have half for dinner and freeze the other half for another time. Mashed potatoes make a good side dish."

Cozy Cottage Beef Stew Soup

getfit19 Cozy Cottage Beef Stew Soup
"It's a delicious blend of tender beef and vegetables, with just the right amount of thick, flavorful broth to tie everything together. Add a loaf of crusty bread, and you have a perfect meal for on the run (microwaves great!) or for sitting down together and sharing the day's events."
