"Class
was fabulous! I learned new cooking techniques, organized my kitchen and lost 15
pounds!!"

I would like to thank you for a great course! I really enjoyed making the
recipes and your advice has been very helpful and inspiring!"
"Donna,
thanks to you and this super course, I now have a renewed interest in cooking
and many wonderful recipes yet to try. The recipes from my new "Cookbook" are
going to be staples. I'm anxious to develop a cycle menu so I can continue to
enjoy eating healthy."
"Donna,
thank you for such a wonderful class. I must say I think my husband enjoyed it
much more than I did, and I really enjoyed it! I have learned so much through
your teaching and hope to continue trying new dishes incorporating the valuable
information you have provided. I have a lot of recipes yet to try from the
class. Again, thanks for an excellent cooking class."
"Donna,
you are a wonderful teacher and I have really enjoyed this course! It is the
first time I have taken an online class and it was a lot of fun, so I plan to
take more in the future. I will watch to see if you have another class and would
like to join you again :)!"
"Great
course, lots of helpful information. The instructor is passionate about
nutrition and it shows in her course content."
"Great
work! Keep it up...I was more than pleased! Thanks again for a great class!"
"I
am an active member of a weight loss group and found this information
invaluable! The course also helped me look at my family's diet and easy ways to
improve it. Thank you!"
"I
enjoyed the course very much. This was my second on-line class the first was
[from another provider]. This was much more fun and relaxed. I have learned a
great deal and began applying some of the things I learned almost immediately. I
look forward to another class as well as preparing the many recipes I have not
yet prepared. I think I will read through my printed copies of the lessons
often. They are jam-packed full of important information."
"I
have enjoyed reviewing the recipes, and selecting different recipes, actually
cooking them. I have gained a little more knowledge & a lot more confidence in
trying to cook healthy. Thank you."
"I
really enjoyed the class & I feel I learned a lot."
"I
enjoyed this class very much and look forward to the opportunity of doing
another online class...I have noticed my shopping has changed and how I now try
harder to find low sodium and low fat products. I have also become more aware of
the importance of seasoning. When I prepare something not from this class, I
have a better understanding of why the ingredients have been put together. I
hope there will be a follow up class with more information...I must admit, I
wondered how a cooking class could be conducted online. It worked out great! In
fact, I think it was better than it would have been if we had had to go to a
specific location twice a week for a lecture. Thanks for everything. My husband
benefitted from the class also and appreciates all the new recipes."
"I
found this course to be very enjoyable and hate to see it end! I'd be very
interested in another course with this instructor."
"I
have taken several classes and this was the best one. I hope there are more
foods and healthy cooking classes. I extremely enjoyed this one and the
instructor was excellent."
"I
really enjoyed this course. The recipes were delicious as well as healthful. I
have learned many ways to improve my cooking, marketing, and housekeeping."

Explore how to use flavor profiling to expand your
culinary horizons.
Have you ever wished you had a
personal chef preparing luscious, low-fat meals for you? This course
is the next best thing! You'll learn how to ferret out fat in
recipes, and discover how to reduce fat without sacrificing flavor
or texture. Learn how to prepare casseroles, crock-pot
dishes, vegan dishes, oven-fried foods, meat-based meals, and many
other entrees that are both nutritious and delicious!
Low fat
food can be tasty as well as made as quickly as any other food. The
important thing to remember about any food and most importantly low
calorie food is the right kind of ingredients.
Have you always
suspected the only function of fat was to attach
itself to your stomach, hips, or thighs? The first
lesson will uncover the functions of fat in cooking
and discuss easy, lower-fat ways to replace these
functions. In this lesson you'll begin to identify
high-fat ingredients in recipes, too. You'll use
your new skills to prepare a luscious—and
lowered-fat—recipe for Lasagna Mexicana. Then you'll
try your hand at a quick-and-easy Chicken à la King
that's lower in fat but even more flavorful than the
original recipe!
Friday - Lesson 02
In Lesson 1, you
learned that two of the functions of fat are
carrying flavor and adding "mouthfeel."
Seasonings are a fat-free way to improve flavor
and mouthfeel. This lesson will explore the
functions of seasonings in lowered-fat cooking,
and then it will discuss several of the most
commonly used seasonings and their uses. You'll
also learn about flavor profiling, and use this
terrific technique to create three easy,
flavorful lowered-fat recipes: Mexican
Shepherd's Pie, Greek Pizza, and Italian Meat
Loaf.
Week Two
Wednesday - Lesson 03
Many recipes are
based on sauces, and many of them tend to be
high in fat. This lesson will look at the
functions of fat in sauces. It will discuss
several ways to make easy and delicious
lowered-fat sauces. You'll use this knowledge to
prepare an easy, elegant Fettuccine Tofredo with
Chicken and Broccoli that's deliciously smooth
and rich. You'll learn how to use canned
condensed soups to make easy low-fat sauces when
you make Quick and Easy Turkey Tetrazzini. And
you'll discover the differences between opaque
and glossy sauces as you learn to prepare quick
and easy recipe for Sweet and Sour Chicken.
Friday - Lesson 04
This lesson is a
student favorite! This lesson will define add-in
ingredients, and you'll discover how to incorporate
them into delicious lowered-fat recipes. Armed with
this knowledge, you'll prepare a kid-friendly
Spaghetti Pie that adults will love, too! If you
enjoy Asian cuisine, you'll be delighted with this
lesson’s 15-minute recipe for Spicy Peanut Chicken.
You don't have even 15 minutes to make dinner? After
you apply your knowledge of seasoning, flavor
profiling, and add-in ingredients, no one will
believe you made Very Veggie Soup using canned and
frozen foods. Last but not least, this lesson will
share with you the alterations made to a typical
restaurant-style fried rice recipe to create
unforgettably delicious "Fried" Rice.
Week Three
Wednesday - Lesson 05-
Have you sworn off
red meat because it's too high in fat or it's too
difficult to prepare tender and flavorful cuts of
lower-fat meats? Are you sick to death of the same
old recipes for chicken? If you answered yes to
either question, you'll love this lesson! You'll
uncover many tips and tricks for preparing tender
and flavorful meals based on leaner meats when you
prepare Ground Beef Stroganoff, Pan-Broiled London
Broil, and Sweet and Sour Meatballs. This lesson
will revisit flavor profiling as it explore rubs and
marinades, two great ways to enliven plain old
poultry. To showcase these skills, you'll prepare
Cinnamon Chicken. And finally, you'll discover how
to convert a time-consuming recipe for Chicken
Cordon Bleu into a quicker, easier, and lower-fat
casserole recipe.
Friday - Lesson 06
Seafood offers so
many health benefits that several health
organizations recommend eating it at least twice a
week. Many people avoid fish and shellfish because
they aren't familiar with how to prepare it or
they're not excited about filling up the kitchen
with that fishy aroma. This lesson will discuss how
to choose seafood, and you'll learn how to prepare a
bounty of fish and shellfish-based meals that won't
leave your house smelling funny, including Grilled
Ginger-Lime Salmon with Sauce, Drunken Cod, Poached
Asian Salmon, Fish Puttanesca, Thai Shrimp, "Crab"
Salad, Quick Crab Bisque, and Asian Tangerine
Scallops.
Week Four
Wednesday - Lesson 07
Are you suspicious of
soybeans? Any doubts you may have will be dispelled
when you taste Marinated Three-Bean Salad and Farmer
Chili. Are you baffled by tofu? You'll discover how
easy it is to use it to replace high-fat ingredients
like cream and whole eggs when you prepare Creamy
Butternut Squash Soup, Pasta Carbonara, Spicy Peanut
Tofu, Tofu Pumpkin Custard, and Tofu Guacamole. As
easy and delicious as these recipes are what most
students enjoy about this lesson is sneaking
healthful soybeans and tofu into their family's
meals. Your diners will never be the wiser, either!
Friday - Lesson 08
Are you tired of
never having an answer to the question, "What's for
dinner?" If you shouted "Yes!" then this is your
lesson! Even if you usually have dinner under
control, you'll be delighted to learn how to develop
and use cycle menu to save you time, reduce food
waste, and help encourage diner acceptance. To prove
these points, in this lesson you'll learn to prepare
Bean and Basil Salad, Tomato-Basil Meat Sauce,
Chicken Curry, Shrimp Cashew Salad, and Greek
Skillet. This lesson will also discuss how to
develop a grocery list that works for you. It will
finish up by taking a look at shopping for
groceries, including the pros and cons of online and
warehouse shopping.
Week Five
Wednesday - Lesson 09
Break out your
Crock-Pot and discover how delicious and easy
lowered-fat cooking can be! This lesson will prepare
an exotic but oh so easy recipe for African Chicken.
You'll learn how to convert the Chicken à la King
recipe that was prepared back in Lesson 1 to a
Crock-Pot recipe. This lesson will uncover the
secrets of lowered-fat casserole cookery as you
learn preparing a yummy Chicken Enchilada Casserole.
And if you've given up deep-frying because it's too
high in fat, you'll love this lesson’s recipes for
Oven-Fried Chicken, Oven Fries, and Oven Onion
Rings. You'll be licking your fingers because these
recipes taste so good—not because they're greasy!
Friday - Lesson 10
If you prefer to cook
rather than clean, you'll love the tips and tricks
that will be discussed in this lesson! This lesson
will examine how to organize and take control of the
pantry, kitchen, refrigerator, and freezer. This
lesson will share with you some kitchen cleanup
tips, too. Once you've got things organized and
tidy, this lesson will share what is called cupboard
meals. Fall back on these family-favorite recipes
when you're pressed for time—Chicken Florentine
Pasta, Speedy Lasagna, and Quick Chicken Risotto.
This lesson will revisit flavor profiling and
discuss another way it can benefit you when you
prepare Caribbean Chicken Pizza. And, you'll learn
to use the Crock-Pot to prepare Mexican Pork, a
simple but delicious twofer recipe.

hottest dog day of summer as you prepare Summer
Seviche, Gazpacho, and Chicken Caesar Pasta Salad.

appliances to make Best Pizza Dough, Tomato-Olive
Bread, and Chicken and Wild Rice Casserole. And

scrumptious, though, you'll want to enjoy them
year-round!
