An easy vegan dip recipe seasoned with Moroccan spices that are as beautiful as it is delicious. Pairs perfectly with fresh pita bread or pita chips.
One of the things that it seems like it’s hard to do when you’re on Weight Watchers (or any diet) is to go to parties. There is usually a lot of food but much of it is laden with fat and calories that you don’t need and won’t eat.
With the holidays just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to get your repertoire of recipes in shape to bring the tastiest and healthiest treats to parties. And trust me, one of those recipes you’re going to want to make is this delicious Moroccan Carrot Dip.

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wrap Bowls Recipe
By Wendy Zitzman
If you’ve ever had those adorable little Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps, you know how tasty they are, but also how messy they can be to eat.

Roasted Honey Soy-Glazed Chicken Recipe
By Wendy Zitzman
Right now, I’m making our Rosh Hashanah dinner. It’s a Jewish New Year that occurs every fall, usually in September or October. Traditionally, there is a large dinner with all your family and you spend most of the day cooking dinner. Since I don’t usually like to spend all day in the kitchen cooking dinner, and I’m all about the quick and easy meals, I found a way to whip up a delicious Rosh Hashanah recipe, with minimal effort.
Quick and easy meals is where this Roasted Honey Soy-Glazed Chicken recipe comes into its own. It is incredibly easy, with just a handful of ingredients, but it is more than just a simple mouthful of flavors! It’s a little sweet, a little salty and a little smoky…it really doesn’t get better than this. Well, except that it’s that good and I don’t spend all day cooking it!

Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes Recipe
By Wendy Zitzman
As a kid, I grew up eating Sloppy Joe’s as a regular staple. It was an easy meal to cook, and pretty inexpensive to make, so we ate it a LOT. I do occasionally make Sloppy Joe’s for my kids, which they love, but I will still enjoy one myself every now and then. Not too long ago, I decided to try out a new concept I’d seen around a few times, by combining the ingredients of a Philly Cheesesteak in the form of a Sloppy Joe.
Chickpea and Sumac Salad Recipe
By Wendy Zitzman
One of the best things about living in Southern California is the diversity of foods and restaurants. Growing up in PA, my diet was pretty American standard. But after moving to Los Angeles, a whole new world of foods and flavors was opened to me, and I’ve never been happier. Middle Eastern foods are almost always a hit with me, and after dining at a Turkish restaurant recently, I discovered this super simple, yet incredibly flavorful Chickpea and Sumac Salad Recipe.
Avocado Toast Recipe
By Wendy Zitzman
You know me, I tend to be annoyed by the super trendy things and really avoid jumping on the food trend bandwagon. There are a couple of exceptions to that – if it happens to be seriously amazing (have you tried the new Instant Pot?), or if I’ve already been enjoying it for a long time.
This one falls into the second category. I have been eating and thoroughly enjoying avocado toast for a long time – way before it was a trendy food thing.

Crab Cake Waffles Recipe
By Wendy Zitzman
Lately, there’s been a serious waffled food trend happening on Instagram. Apparently, it’s pretty easy to cook a lot of different foods on a waffle iron! This is great because it allows your food to cook quicker and more evenly, and you use a lot less oil than you would if you pan fried the food.
