Raspberry Chocolate Mousse
Chocolate mousse for 115 calories? Yes, please! This healthy dessert recipe is perfect for a special occasion or if you just need a sweet treat. For the fluffiest mousse, make as few gentle strokes with your spatula as possible to fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture…………………..
Chilled Key Lime Mousse
This refreshing chilled Key lime mousse is a perfect union of cream and foam, tangy lime and soft sweet custard. The method is simple but a little unusual–you make a custard with fresh Key lime juice rather than milk or cream. Key limes, which are about the size of a Ping-Pong ball, are wonderfully fragrant and more acidic than regular limes. They are available all year at well-stocked supermarkets. If you can’t find them, by all means use regular limes………………………

Love those Lemons…………..
Grilling fish can be frustrating at times because the skin inevitably gets stuck to the grate, particularly when grilling salmon. Avoid this by placing a few thin slices of lemon or lime on the grill, and the the fish top. Not only will your cleanup be easier, but the citrus flavor will also taste great with seafood. Now grill that fish!

Cutting back on salt in your cooking……….
Start by selecting reduced-sodium or no-salt-added canned soups and vegetables. Always check the Nutrition Facts Label for sodium and choose products with lower sodium content. Then season foods with herbs, spices, garlic, onions, peppers and lemon or lime juice to add flavor.

Today’s Menu: Lemon-Parsley Baked Cod w/ Long Grain and Wild Rice, Sliced Carrots, and Whole Grain Bread
Started my morning off with a couple of Jennie – O Turkey Breakfast Sausage Links, Simply Potatoes Hash Browns, a slice of toasted Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread, and a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 84 degrees, low humidity, mostly sunny and a nice light breeze blowing out today! After Breakfast I did a couple loads of laundry. Next I cleaned the house, dusted and ran the vacuum. Later on got the cart out and took a ride around the neighborhood. For dinner tonight I prepared a Lemon-Parsley Baked Cod w/ Long Grain and Wild Rice, Sliced Carrots, and Whole Grain Bread.
For dinner tonight I prepared a Lemon Baked Cod. I’ll need the following; 3 tablespoons lemon juice, 3 tablespoons butter (melted), 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, 1/4 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning, 3 cod fillets, 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley, and 2 teaspoons grated lemon peel.
To prepare the Cod I first preheated oven to 400°. In a shallow bowl, mixed lemon juice and butter. In a separate shallow bowl, mixed flour and seasonings. Dip fillets the in lemon juice mixture, then in flour mixture to coat both sides; shake off excess. Placed the fillets in a 13×9-in. baking dish coated with Pam Cooking Spray. Drizzle with remaining lemon juice mixture. Baked 12 minutes and the fish just began to flake easily with a fork. Mix parsley and lemon peel; sprinkle over fish. The Cod came out so flavorful! The Lemon is perfect with Cod.
For one side dish I prepared some Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice – Long Grain and Wild Rice. It comes in a microwavable Pouch. Just heat the pouch in the microwave and serve. Love Rice! Then I also heated up a small can of Del Monte Sliced Carrots. Also had a slice of Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread, buttered it with I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter. For dessert later a bowl of fresh sliced Peaches!

Put back the Salt Shaker and………
When a savory dish needs a little kick, try a squeeze of lemon instead of salt. A hit of citrus can make the whole recipe come to life.
