I've got one for curried chickpeas that I love? Interested?

[fimbrethil]

Sure! I'll give it a go.

for me, i find using the same recipes but substituting works well. less butter, more olive oil or canola, less egg yolks, etc, lowfat milk instead of whole, etc.

Yup! I do that now.

Won't Make You Fatfredo

I make a simple cream sauce using fat-free half and half, I Can't Believe it's Not Butter, garlic, tomatoes, chicken breast pieces and basil.

I sort of just throw it together so I'm not sure how much of anything I really use.

I serve it over pasta ;)

That sounds great. Thanks, Nancy.

Lots of things from the cookbooks Looneyspoons, Crazy Plates, and Eat Shrink and be Merry, all written by Janet & Greta Podleski. They have a veggie chili that's wonderful, a chickpea chowder soup with no dairy and very little fat (that tastes wonderfully buttery all the same), recipes for sweets, and lots of funny bits throughout.

I make the chickpea chowder pretty regularly - I've made it enough times I can do it from memory now.

Awesome! Thank you.
