Tips for a Kidney-Friendly Holiday Season
Tumblr media
Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanza, or another holiday, the holidays are always a special time of year. The holidays are a time of family gatherings, decorations, gifts and, of course, food. Even though this year may be different with social distancing, masks and Zoom gatherings, keeping your health in focus is important. Staying healthy during the holidays can be confusing and overwhelming. Prepare for a kidney-friendly holiday season by following these simple tips.
Take your binders.
Phosphorus is a mineral that helps our body form teeth and bones, get oxygen to tissues, move muscles and so much more. It is found in many foods like dairy products, nuts, seeds, meats, chocolate and more. It can also be added to foods and beverages like dark-colored sodas, packaged snack foods and frozen TV dinners. Depending on how much phosphorus you eat on a daily basis, the phosphorus levels in your blood can sometimes get too high. Over time, high phosphorus can lead to bone and heart problems that can be serious.
One way to control the phosphorus levels in your blood is to take your phosphate binders with every meal and snack as prescribed. If you are traveling to a socially distanced family function, bring your binders with you in a zip-top bag, pill holder or a small handbag. When you are enjoying your holiday meal at home, keep your bottle of binders by your place setting or in your kitchen to make it easier for you to remember to take. If you love to munch on appetizers, carry some binders with you in your pants pockets and take one with your hors d’oeuvres. Make sure you are ahead of the game by taking your binders this holiday season.
Be mindful of portion sizes.
Whether you are doing the cooking from the comfort of your own home, or attending a family gathering out of town, being mindful of what is being served and how much you are eating is important. Some holiday dinner staples may include ham, turkey, roast chicken, mashed potatoes, sweet potato or pumpkin pie, yams, gravies, soups and chocolate candy or cookies. While these foods are delicious, they may be high in sodium, potassium or phosphorus. Eating these holiday foods in moderation will help you stick to a kidney-friendly diet while still enjoying them. For example, when choosing to eat high-potassium foods like potatoes, latkes, greens, chickpeas, sweet potato pie or chocolate desserts, be sure to serve yourself small portions of these items. If you are making latkes for your Hanukah celebration, try making broccoli onion latkes for a lower potassium option. You can satisfy your cravings but won’t overdo it!
Build a balanced plate.
Filling your plate with only mashed potatoes and apple pie for your holiday meal might sound tempting, but it won’t leave you feeling great for long. Try building a balanced plate by choosing kidney-friendly options from your holiday dinner table. Start with a high-protein food, like turkey, pork chops or roast chicken. Aim for about 3 ounces of a protein food to keep you full and satisfied.
Next, try choosing low-potassium fruits and vegetables to fill half of your plate. These foods could be roasted cauliflower and broccoli, roasted Brussels sprouts, green beans, fruit salad, cranberry sauce or a tossed salad. Lastly, if your table offers more starchy options like noodles, rice, challah bread, or a dinner roll, add one of these to your plate to help fill you up. Of course a holiday dinner is not complete without a delicious cookie, bread pudding, or candy cane! Having a treat like a cookie or slice of warm apple pie can fit into a kidney-friendly diet. Be mindful of your portion sizes and enjoy your treat without guilt.
Choose low-sodium options.    
A big holiday meal can be high in sodium, which can lead to serious blood pressure and fluid issues for your body. If you are doing the cooking for your holiday dinner, check your seasonings twice. Opt for Mrs. Dash® herb seasoning blends or fresh herbs to add flavor to your dishes. If you are going to a family member or friend’s house for the holidays, try bringing your own low-sodium seasonings to add your own flavor in a kidney-friendly way. Remember to buy canned vegetables that are labeled “low sodium” or “no salt added,” as salt is often added to these foods. When possible, use fresh or frozen produce for your holiday meal. Ham, a Christmas favorite, is very high in sodium and should be limited when possible. Choose a lower-sodium meat like low-sodium seasoned pork or roast chicken.
For your Kwanza celebration, choosing a spicier dish like spicy seafood etouffee is helpful because the spice adds flavor and heat, instead of salt! Another tip for sticking to a low-sodium diet during the holidays is to ask for the sauces on the side. Whether it is gravy or a cheesy sauce, put it on the side of your plate to dip in instead of pouring it on top of your meal. You will use less sauce this way and keep your meal lower in sodium.
Here are some great kidney-friendly recipes for your holiday meal!
Holiday Cheese Ball
Christmas Cranberry Salad
Red Wine Vinaigrette Asparagus
Rice Pilaf
Apple Spice Pork Chops
Gingerbread Apple Cobbler
Hot Mulled Punch
Broccoli Onion Latkes
Braised Beef Brisket

September Seasonal Produce Guide
Late Summer and Early fall leads to heavy loads at the farmers market and thus very long lists in this Seasonal Produce Guide for September.  Bear with me because there are so many good recipes to enjoy right now!  Fruit is still making a good appearance as are all of the vegetables and you can’t forget the big, busty, ripe tomatoes right now!  This time of year I love making a big batch of marinara to store up for the winter. I also serve this One-Pan Farro with Tomatoes, Sausage, and Kale  frequently for a quick dinner and a big bowl of apples once again graces our kitchen island.
Though I’ve given you plenty of ideas below for recipes, I also wanted to add a few end of harvest ideas for you.  Just pick one of the ingredients listed above and find a way to store it up for a mid-winter celebration.  This year try shucking a lot of corn to freeze for winter meals, or make your own jam (this maple vanilla apricot jam is a little taste of heaven), can some peaches in this honey simple syrup (one of my favorite things to enjoy mid winter), or try your hand at pickling – this strawberry pickled radish recipe is fun and I always make at least one batch of these pickled vegetables every year.
I look forward to seeing what all of you are making this harvest season.  Don’t forget to tag your seasonal food photos with #eatseasonal!

“If you've been to a grocery store's dairy aisle lately, you've probably picked up on the fact that Greek yogurt is becoming pretty darn popular. At Greatist, we think this stardom is well earned: We consider the stuff a superfood thanks to its high protein and probiotic content. But frankly, we’re getting a little sick of the classic Greek yogurt and granola combo that’s been a staple of our breakfasts since who-knows-when. So we’ve rounded up 51 healthy recipes from around the web that use Greek yogurt in surprising, delicious ways — and not just for breakfast (okay, we’ve got some breakfast recipes too — but we guarantee that they’re equally surprising).
Breakfast
51 Healthy Greek Yogurt Recipes for Any Meal Photo: Recipe Girl
1. Greek Yogurt Pancakes
These pancakes aren’t only beautiful; they’re also loaded with protein and antioxidant-rich blueberries — and not much else. To increase the health “oomph” even more, substitute in whole-wheat pastry flour.
2. Eggs Florentine with Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto
Olive oil provides some healthy fats, spinach adds iron and calcium, and sun-dried tomato pesto and pepper add a zap of flavor to these creamy, protein rich eggs Florentine.
3. Yogurt Breakfast Bowl
This ain’t no ordinary breakfast yogurt. Curry powder, cilantro, and honey add unique flavor to this yogurt bowl, which is packed not only with granola (choose whole-grain and low-sugar options if you’re so inclined) but also with loads and loads of vitamin-rich fruit.
4. Breakfast Berry Enchiladas
Fill a whole-wheat tortilla with heaping spoonfuls of berries and Greek yogurt, add in flavorful seasonings such as super healthy cinnamon and nutmeg. Superfood almonds top off this concoction with a dash of protein, healthy fat, and fiber.
5. Scandinavian Eggs Benedict with Yogurt Sauce
Research suggests that a protein-rich breakfast is the best breakfast, and this meal delivers: Salmon and poached egg top a whole-wheat English muffin, then get smothered in a lighter version of Hollandaise sauce using Greek yogurt and fresh herbs and spices to pack a flavorful punch.
6. Lightened-Up Blueberry Lemon Greek Yogurt Bread
Two large eggs and Greek yogurt pack a protein punch, while a heaping cup of fresh blueberries infuses this moist, delicious bread with a whole bunch of vitamins and antioxidants.
7. Apple Pie Parfait
These pretty little delights are full of protein, thanks to Greek yogurt and quinoa, along with superfoods apple and cinnamon and heart-healthy walnuts.

8. Pasta with Zucchini, Tomatoes, and Creamy Lemon-Yogurt Sauce
This colorful bowl of pasta uses whole-wheat linguine, protein-rich Greek yogurt, and hearty doses of zucchini, tomatoes, and garlic, which is packed with vitamins C and B6 and manganese.
9. Broccoli Cheddar Twice Baked Potatoes with Greek Yogurt
Take a plain ‘ol baked potato up about six notches with the addition of Greek yogurt (a healthier alternative to sour cream) and 2 cups of broccoli, which contributes Vitamin C, fiber, and folate.
10. Skinny Greek Yogurt Chicken
The recipe promises that this chicken will “melt in your mouth,” and we don’t doubt it. Greek yogurt and just half a cup of grated parmesan cheese add protein and a creamy texture, while garlic powder and freshly ground black pepper make the flavor pop.
11. Healthy Mac and Cheese
This lighter take on a childhood classic uses whole wheat macaroni, a whole bunch of onions and garlic, and spicy cayenne pepper, which contains a compound that may help boost metabolism. The recipe calls for much less cheese than the traditional style, but don’t worry — it still tastes plenty creamy thanks to our dear friend Greek yogurt.
12. Roasted Eggplant and Tomatoes with Tangy Cucumbers and Yogurt
This fancy, colorful dish is chock full of good-for-you ingredients, including eggplants, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, shallots, olive oil, Greek yogurt, rosemary, and pine nuts. It’s light, but hearty enough for a filling lunch.
13. Blackened Chicken Breast over Cilantro Lime Quinoa
In the mood for something fancy? Whip up these flavorful, protein rich chicken breasts and lay them over a bed of cilantro and quinoa. Top with a puree of Greek yogurt, avocado, cilantro, and some lemon juice, and you’ve got a meal sure to dazzle dinner guests.
14. Yogurt-Marinated Chicken Kebabs with Aleppo Pepper
“Yogurt-marinated chicken kebabs” might not sound tasty, but we’re pretty sure this recipe will change your mind. Chicken and Greek yogurt add a whole heap of protein, while olive oil contributes healthy fats, garlic ratchets up the nutrient profile, and spicy seasonings pack a wallop of flavor.
15. Cheesy Chicken Quesadillas
For a healthier take on creamy, delicious quesadillas, swap in whole-wheat tortillas, a whole bunch of veggies, and some good-for-you cumin. Top with salsa and Greek yogurt (instead of sour cream), and enjoy.
16. Sriracha-Roasted Chickpeas & Cauliflower with Pickled Mustard Seeds
We’re big fans of Sriracha here at Greatist, and this recipe has just given us another reason to embrace the spicy paste. Chickpeas add protein and fiber, superfood cauliflower packs vitamin C and phytochemicals, olive oil adds some healthy fats, and Greek yogurt helps balance out the heat while adding even more protein.
17. Roasted Eggplant Salad with Saffron Yogurt
We couldn’t find something wrong with this recipe if we tried. Eggplants, olive oil, saffron, Greek yogurt, black pepper, basil leaves, and pine nuts are all that’s required, and they’re all good with us!
18. Steak Salad with Chive-Yogurt Dressing
This hearty salad calls on Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and just a tiny bit of mayonnaise to make a light, flavorful dressing that complements the steak’s rustic flavor.
Soups, Salads, and Sides
51 Healthy Greek Yogurt Recipes for Any Meal Photo: The Faux Martha
19. Garlic-Yogurt Mashed Potatoes
This healthier take on a classic dinner table staple uses only two tablespoons of butter and — it gets the rest of its protein and (healthy) fats from Greek yogurt and olive oil. Garlic, sea salt, and freshly cracked black pepper add flavor.
20. Creamy Tomato Orzo Soup
This hearty vegetarian soup is stuffed with Orzo pasta, onions, tomatoes, garlic, basil, red pepper flakes, and (you guessed it) Greek yogurt. Perfect alongside a whole-grain grilled cheese sandwich!
21. Spicy Chopped Chicken Salad
This filling salad is chock-full of protein thanks to chicken, Greek yogurt, and fiber-rich chickpeas. It’s also jam-packed with vitamin-rich produce (including cucumbers, tomatoes, romaine lettuce, and onions) and flavor-rich spices such as ancho chile powder and cayenne pepper.
22. Butternut Squash Soup
This creamy, low-sugar, flavorful soup is stuffed to the gills with produce (including celery, squash, leeks, and shallots) and seasonings (including garlic, black pepper, lime juice, and cilantro). A quarter cup of Greek yogurt adds protein and a smooth, delicious texture.
23. Greek Yogurt Egg Salad
Just in time for potlucks: This healthier take on egg salad replaces mayonnaise with protein-rich Greek yogurt and adds in celery and onions for at least a partial serving of veggies.
24. Creamy Mashed Cauliflower
Don’t be fooled: These are no ordinary mashed potatoes. Instead, it’s cauliflower! But when you smother it in Greek yogurt, a little bit of butter and cheese, and some garlic, shallots, and scallions, we bet you won’t miss the original variety.
25. Greek Yogurt Chicken Salad
This healthier take on chicken salad replaces mayo with Greek yogurt and adds in a whole bunch of produce (including celery, grapes, and apples) for a vitamin kick. A sprinkle of walnuts adds some healthy fats. Eat the salad on its own as a side or roll it up in a whole-wheat tortilla for a filling lunch.
26. Smoky Deviled Eggs with Greek Yogurt
There’s no need to balk at having seconds: These deviled eggs skip the mayo and go straight to the Greek yogurt (we’re sensing a trend here…). Sun-dried tomatoes add a flavorful twist to this springtime classic.
27. Spicy Tuna Salad with Greek Yogurt
You’ve been warned: This recipe means spicy. Three tablespoons of jalapenos ratchet up the heat while tuna and Greek yogurt add a heap of protein and chopped onion, salt, and pepper bring on the flavor.
28. Creamy, Lighter Macaroni Salad
Surprise! This healthier take on macaroni salad subs out almost all of the mayo in favor of Greek yogurt. Celery, radishes, and lemon juice add light crunch and flavor to the dish, while hard-cooked eggs add even more protein. For an even healthier option, sub in whole-wheat macaroni.
29. Lemony Roasted Potato Salad
Speaking of remaking classic potluck dishes: This light, citrusy take on potato salad uses Greek yogurt, olive oil, and fresh mint to add so much flavor and creaminess that you won’t miss the mayo.
30. Cucumber, Fennel & Roasted Potato Salad with Parsleyed Yogurt
Check out this recipe for an even fancier take on classic potato salad. Modeled after Mediterranean-style food, this salad draws on loads of produce including green beans, celery, cucumber, red onions, and fennel. Light (but sour) lemon juice is balanced out by Greek yogurt’s smooth texture.
31. Stuffed Grape Leaves
These beauties are remarkably simple (provided you know where to get some ground goat meat). Combine the meat with onions, garlic, sweet corn, and roast pepper sauce, then wrap ‘em up in giant grape leaves for a delicious, hearty side. (Of course, if goat isn’t available, you can use beef, chicken, lamb, or pork instead!).
32. Greek Yogurt Dinner Rolls
These airy, low-sugar rolls are made with whole-wheat flour and just a touch of honey or agave. Greek yogurt adds a unique buttery texture.
33. Greek Yogurt Biscuits
These scrumptious biscuits use just a tiny bit of sugar and no butter at all thanks to Greek yogurt. For an even healthier take, swap out regular all-purpose flour in favor of a whole-wheat variety.
Dips
51 Healthy Greek Yogurt Recipes for Any Meal Photo: So Let's Hang Out
34. Kale, Spinach, and Artichoke Dip with Greek Yogurt
This delicious (and delicious-sounding) artichoke dip is already so full of veggies that we’re tempted to suggest eating it with a spoon. Superfoods kale and spinach combine with carrots, red onion, artichoke hearts, and garlic in a hearty Greek yogurt base.
35. Chocolate Chocolate Chip Yogurt Dip
Yup, you read that right: This fruit dip is full of creamy, chocolately richness (but still relatively low on sugar) thanks to unsweetened cocoa powder, a small handful of chocolate chips, vanilla extract, just one tablespoon of maple syrup, and (of course) Greek yogurt.
36. Creamy Avocado Yogurt Dip
Guacamole, meet Greek yogurt. This creamy, delectable dish is full of protein, healthy fats (thanks to our favorite superfood, avocado), garlic, and loads of flavorful seasonings, including cilantro, lime juice, and cumin.
37. Beet Tzatziki
No yogurt recipe roundup would be complete without mention of tzatziki. This recipe adds a quirky twist with the addition of colorful beets. The rest of the ingredients — garlic, lemon juice, Greek yogurt, parsley, ground pepper, and srirarcha add flavor and a spicy kick.
38. Raspberry Dip
This sweet, simple raspberry dip is incredibly simple to make: Just combine Greek yogurt with raspberries and a touch of sugar, and voila! Time to get dipping.
39. Dilly Snack Dip
This healthier take on veggie dip uses Greek yogurt, heart-healthy walnuts, minced garlic, and some fresh, chopped dill. Serve with sliced fresh veggies or whole-wheat pita triangles.
40. Apple Dip
This hearty, delicious apple dip is full of Greek yogurt, peanut butter (for even more creaminess), honey, and cinnamon. It almost qualifies as dessert!
Sweets
51 Healthy Greek Yogurt Recipes for Any Meal Photo: Happyolks
41. Lemon Tart with Rosemary Crust
This wholesome, delicious tart uses Greek yogurt to cut down on sugar and butter. The simple spelt flour crust is infused with rosemary and just a hint of sugar, while the filling gets light, citrusy tartness from the juice and zest of lemons.
42. Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt
The “recipe” is absurdly easy, and pretty darn healthy (especially for a dessert!): Just open up an individually sized container of plain Greek yogurt, add ¼ teaspoon vanilla, a pinch of sea salt, your favorite nut butter and sweetener (such as maple syrup or honey), and a tablespoon of mini chocolate chips. Swirl it all together and nom on down.
43. Baked Pears with Maple Greek Yogurt and Granola
This sweet little dish gets its sweetness from pears, apples (a superfood in our book), and a dash of honey and maple syrup. Add Greek yogurt, half a cup of granola, and a sprinkle of chopped walnuts, and you’ve got a “dessert” fit for breakfast.
44. Homemade Frozen Greek Yogurt
Make-your-own frozen yogurt? Yup, it’s easy. Just combine water, sugar, egg whites, Greek yogurt, and some vanilla extract, freeze, and enjoy.
45. Greek Yogurt Brulee
This pretty dessert is simple and way low in sugar: Just combine Greek yogurt, a little honey, and only two tablespoons of sugar, then top them with almonds and fresh fruit. Bonus: You get to use a torch!
46. Greek Yogurt Banana Bread
This creamy, low-sugar take on a bread classic is as tasty as it is pretty to look at. Whole-wheat flour, bananas, and healthy fat-rich walnuts all add to the health factor.
47. Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Made with Greek Yogurt
For an even sweeter take on banana bread, try this recipe — featuring chocolate! And it remains pretty healthy thanks to whole-wheat pastry flour, naturally sweet bananas, and Greek yogurt (which cuts down on sugar).
48. Greek Yogurt Cheesecake
We dare you to look at the picture for this recipe without salivating. Once you see how delicious it looks, you might be surprised to learn that it’s made with Greek yogurt, tofu (!), lemon juice, vanilla extract, a natural sweetener (such as agave or maple syrup), and arrowroot flour or corn starch — and that’s it! The result is a creamy, protein-rich, delectable treat.
49. Greek Yogurt Frosting
This healthier take on cake and cupcake frosting is incredibly easy: Just whisk together Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and half a cup of powdered sugar for a much less sugary (but still delicious) frosting.
50. Greek Yogurt Chocolate Mousse
Oh man does this look good. Antioxidant-rich dark chocolate combines with milk, just a hint of sugar, Greek yogurt and (bonus!) an optional tablespoon of Amaretto or Grand Marnier. The result is creamy, melt-in-your-mouth, chocolatey goodness.
51. Greek Yogurt Pound Cake
This light, creamy pound cake gets its texture from Greek yogurt and its flavor from vanilla extract, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Sub in whole -heat flour for an extra healthy kick.”

Date Nights & Cocktails: JELLO
Tumblr media
‘Whoever said nothing is impossible obviously hasn't tried nailing Jell-O to a tree.' - John Candy
Tequila and limes go together like peanut butter and jelly, like milk and cookies, like salt and pepper, like macaroni and cheese, like a hipster and a gluten-free diet, etc etc etc. For this reason (and no not this reason alone), this past weekend I made lime tequila jello shots...YUP, it happened (there may have also been some strawberry vodka ones). 
To start off, let me state that I have had jello shots many times (typically with vodka) back in high school and college. It's basically frozen-sh water, sugar, and alcohol. Not too complicated to make even for the worst "cook," so when I found out my significant other had never had a jello shot in his life (WHAT, I know, right? I guess they weren't as popular in South Africa) I knew what our Friday night date night was going to include. 
As we rushed to one of the very few American stores in Amsterdam (because apparently, it's not popular here either), we decided to go with the lime flavor since we had a bottle of tequila waiting for us at home (plus as I mentioned earlier tequila and limes just go to together like...well, like me and tequila go together...aka pure happiness).
Once home, the fun began...AND let me tell you this is the best date night activity. Of course, you should probably make sure to also order or get groceries to make a little something something for the stomach to hold the jello shots. Personally, I think it's fun to cook with someone...unless they're getting messy or in my way...then they should just sit down and entertain conversationally (I'm obviously super chill). 
My recommendation is to prep the jello shots first. All you do is follow the directions on the back of the box, BUT instead of the cold water add alcohol. Remember the less water, the slower the freeze BUT the greater the fun. I would even recommend throwing the shots into the freezer initially to speed up the 2-4 hour process. 
Now as the shots freeze for consumption, I recommend a nice appetizer, a 'waiting' cocktail and the start of dinner making. Since I went with the Mexican theme (aka tequila), I would recommend the easy option of chips and salsa for appetizers. If you want to get fancy you can make nachos, but don't get lazy. Make sure to layer: chips, cheese, chips, cheese etc. (you'll thank me later) and bake (also if you can layer in there some meat and jalapenos, YUM). A bit of guac goes a long way too...smash some avocados, chop up some onions, peppers, tomatoes, apple (yeah, I said it), cilantro, and a few squeezes of lime. Easy breezy. Another option is a super cheesy quesadilla...melted cheese, maybe some shredded chicken or steak (or pulled pork, or beef, or prosciutto...you get the idea...YUM). Regardless you have the above options to snack on while you wait for the freezing process to take place. AND I would maybe start a pitcher of margaritas...coz you can never go wrong with margaritas.
While or after drinking, snacking and watching a movie or show, you can start a little dinner prep. Personally, I would recommend steak tacos (I like themes clearly). It is beyond easy to chop up some steak, throw it on the skillet with some spicy sauces, chop up some onions and peppers to add to the skillet and then put some chopped tomatoes and a selection of cheeses in some bowls. Tada!!!!! 
Once the shots are ready, I would recommend a game for consumption. Have you heard of Heads Up? It's an easy and free download on your phone. From naming celebrities to songs to movies, you guess the word on the card that’s on your head from the other player's clues before the timer runs out. Each of you can take turns playing the same category, and the winner with the lowest correct answers has to take a jello a shot and so on. Enjoy!

14-Day Healthy Meal Plan (May 4- May 17)
posted May 2, 2020 by Gina
A free 14-day, flexible weight loss meal plan including breakfast, lunch and dinner and a shopping list. All recipes include calories and updated WW Smart Points.
14-Day Healthy Meal Plan
As always, I hope this find everyone  safe and healthy! I am again providing 2 WEEKS of breakfast, lunch and dinner. As we move forward and ease into a new normal, I would like to know what you prefer– for me to continue with a 14 day plan, or to go back to the one week plan? Please comment and let me know! Note that we are back to weekday breakfast and lunches serving one!
As previously posted,  here are some additional tips to help maximize your ingredients and limit waste:
Buy whole produce (rather than pre-cut): Pre-cut produce is really convenient but moisture tends to develop quickly, which causes it to spoil more rapidly.
Wash your produce before putting it away. It’s just as important to dry it well with a clean towel or just air dry. Excess moisture (especially in delicate produce such as berries or cut lettuce) can cause pre-mature spoilage.
Freeze any meat you aren’t going to cook within a few days of purchasing. Make sure to safely defrost it as needed. HERE are for some food safety tips from the USDA.
Buy potted herbs when possible. That way, you can use a little as you need it. If you do buy fresh cut herbs, check out THESE tips from The Kitchn for storing and extending their life.
If you don’t have fresh herbs on hand, you can, in general, substitute 1 teaspoon dry for every 1 tablespoon fresh.
If you are missing an ingredient, check out THIS great ingredient substitution list from America’s Test Kitchen.
WW has changed their plan to now include a Blue, Purple and Green Plan. All the recipes on my blog are updated for the Blue plan. I’ve been updating all my recipes (over 2000) and have completed 2019 with the other two colors, and I am working my way down so please be patient.
Lastly, if you’re on Facebook join the Skinnytaste Facebook Community where everyone’s sharing photos of recipes they are making, you can join here. I’m loving all the ideas everyone’s sharing! If you wish to get on the email list, you can subscribe here so you never miss a meal plan!
Also, if you don’t have the Skinnytaste Meal Planner, now would be a great time to get one to help you stay on track! There was a print error last year, but it’s perfect now! You can order it here!

Iconic Long Island eatery breathes new life into diner fare
Sole served with roasted potatoes and market vegetables
Rockville Centre’s Pantry Diner burned to the ground in 2011. With the family business completely destroyed, owner Tommy Mavroudis’ gut reaction was to immediately rebuild the eatery in the exact same style it had comfortably existed in since 1949.
Then, sometime during the aftermath of the fire, Mavroudis decided that it was time to discover something new and fresh. Rather than mirror what the Pantry had been for decades, Mavroudis would move the diner in a more modern direction—using the flames as an impetus for rebirth.
“For years I had been thinking about what I would do differently here if I had the chance,” said Mavroudis. “I grew up here. It was my grandparents’ place and then it was my parents’ place. But when the fire happened, I realized it was time for change.”
So Mavroudis rearranged the Pantry. Actually, saying the Pantry was merely “rearranged” undercooks the sheer volume of change that has taken place at this once-typical Long Island diner. What Mavroudis did was a complete renovation—a process that took so long, locals had a hard time believing the restaurant would ever come back.
Berkshire heritage pork served with honey roasted cipollini onions and green beans
But come back it did. And walking into the Pantry for the first time, it’s immediately obvious that, more than renovate, Mavroudis revitalized, rejuvenated, and revolutionized the entire menu and overall aesthetic. The Pantry now stands with a contemporary facade and a sleek interior that’s more reminiscent of a chic city bistro than standard Long Island diner. As for the atmosphere at the Pantry, the beauty is in the details, with one feature being lights that slightly dim every hour, transforming the eatery from bright diner during the day into stylish restaurant at night.
It’s not just the look that’s changed at the Pantry, as the menu was also completely overhauled with the reopening. While there are plenty of diner favorites still being served, each dish is scratch-made with a newfound culinary flair that’s enhanced with fresh ingredients and an undeniably talented kitchen crew, led by executive chef Scott Burfitt.
The menu includes a collection of appetizers, mussel pots, wings, tacos, flatbreads, and a variety of poutine preparations, along with burgers, sandwiches, a staggering array of mac n’ cheese variations, as well as plenty of full-plate entrées.

Mac & Cheese
Ahi tuna poke, cabbage slaw, guacamole and sesame-cashew crunch
Moscow mule
Starting the meal, there are two appetizers in particular that are emblematic of the kind of experience eaters are in for when they dine at the Pantry. While both are comforting in their own unique way, neither are appetizers one would typically get at a diner.
First, there’s the Tuna Poke, with sushi-grade ahi tuna thoughtfully arranged under cabbage slaw and guacamole, all atop a sesame-cashew crunch. All of the fish at Pantry is wild-caught, and that includes the soft, supple ahi tuna in this dish, which gets a textural boost from the crunchy slaw and cashews. The other noteworthy starter is Tom Tom’s Wicked Shrimp, a glossy preparation with beer battered shrimp, parsley, scallions, lemon, spicy mayo, and Tom Tom sauce, a spicy Szechuan garlic sauce. A textbook way to start a meal, these truly Wicked Shrimp are fiery and addictive.
The first stop in Pantry’s entrées keeps us in the sea, with Lemon Sole stuffed with real lump crabmeat and served with a side of roasted potatoes and market veggies. Like any good sole, the Pantry’s selection—again, wild-caught—consists of delicate, mild flesh that just about melts in your mouth. The addition of crab meat lends a touch of that unmistakable shellfish sweetness. Not to be overlooked is the side of roasted potatoes—bite-sized morsels that combine crunchy, creamy, buttery and salty.
Up next is the crown jewel on the Pantry’s steaks and chops menu, the double-cut, dry-aged Duroc pork chop. Duroc is a breed of pig renowned for incredible juiciness and relatively mild flavor. The Pantry treats this impressive swine with honey-roasted cipollini onions and an apple-raisin agrodolce sauce, which is a sweet-and-sour condiment that exquisitely complements the pork with a sticky, tart and sweet bite. Fellow eaters, this is no ordinary diner-style pork chop—it’s easily one of the most remarkable in recent memory.
The Pantry
Finally, in the Mac’s section of the menu you’ll find options like Classic Mac & Cheese, eye-popping Truffle Lobster Mac & Cheese, and the chef’s favorite, Meatloaf Mac & Cheese, just to name a few. The Meatloaf Mac & Cheese is loaded with the Pantry’s four-cheese blend and adorned with chunks of house-made meatloaf and a BBQ sauce drizzle. It’s a decadently meaty and cheesy meal that elicits groans of delight from everyone at the table.
Washing all that luscious food down is the Pantry’s unequaled bar menu. Everyone is familiar with those place mats of outdated drinks at classic diners—well, the Pantry takes classic cocktails out of the old and into the new, paying serious attention to detail in its spirits. The Pantry also offers plenty of time-honored nonalcoholic diner drinks as well, including egg creams, ice cream sodas and floats.
Breakfast and brunch are also exceedingly popular at the Pantry, with omelets, Benny’s, egg sandwiches, pancakes, waffles and more.
The all-new Pantry is a must-stop morning, day or night out in Rockville Centre. And with its own parking lot—a rarity in that town—you’ll have no problem becoming a regular at this not-so-regular restaurant.
The Pantry, 525 Merrick Rd., Rockville Centre; 516-766-8848; pantrydiner.com
Rockville Centre's Pantry Diner was destroyed by a fire in 2011, but now it has been reborn as The Pantry, a chic bistro with an extensive menu of your updated favorites. Long Island Weekly's Steve Mosco shares his favorite dishes from the stylish new eatery. Iconic Long Island eatery breathes new life into diner fare Rockville Centre’s Pantry Diner burned to the ground in 2011.

Tips for a Kidney-Friendly Holiday Season
Tumblr media
Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanza, or another holiday, the holidays are always a special time of year. The holidays are a time of family gatherings, decorations, gifts and, of course, food. Even though this year may be different with social distancing, masks and Zoom gatherings, keeping your health in focus is important. Staying healthy during the holidays can be confusing and overwhelming. Prepare for a kidney-friendly holiday season by following these simple tips.
Take your binders.
Phosphorus is a mineral that helps our body form teeth and bones, get oxygen to tissues, move muscles and so much more. It is found in many foods like dairy products, nuts, seeds, meats, chocolate and more. It can also be added to foods and beverages like dark-colored sodas, packaged snack foods and frozen TV dinners. Depending on how much phosphorus you eat on a daily basis, the phosphorus levels in your blood can sometimes get too high. Over time, high phosphorus can lead to bone and heart problems that can be serious.
One way to control the phosphorus levels in your blood is to take your phosphate binders with every meal and snack as prescribed. If you are traveling to a socially distanced family function, bring your binders with you in a zip-top bag, pill holder or a small handbag. When you are enjoying your holiday meal at home, keep your bottle of binders by your place setting or in your kitchen to make it easier for you to remember to take. If you love to munch on appetizers, carry some binders with you in your pants pockets and take one with your hors d’oeuvres. Make sure you are ahead of the game by taking your binders this holiday season.
Be mindful of portion sizes.
Whether you are doing the cooking from the comfort of your own home, or attending a family gathering out of town, being mindful of what is being served and how much you are eating is important. Some holiday dinner staples may include ham, turkey, roast chicken, mashed potatoes, sweet potato or pumpkin pie, yams, gravies, soups and chocolate candy or cookies. While these foods are delicious, they may be high in sodium, potassium or phosphorus. Eating these holiday foods in moderation will help you stick to a kidney-friendly diet while still enjoying them. For example, when choosing to eat high-potassium foods like potatoes, latkes, greens, chickpeas, sweet potato pie or chocolate desserts, be sure to serve yourself small portions of these items. If you are making latkes for your Hanukah celebration, try making broccoli onion latkes for a lower potassium option. You can satisfy your cravings but won’t overdo it!
Build a balanced plate.
Filling your plate with only mashed potatoes and apple pie for your holiday meal might sound tempting, but it won’t leave you feeling great for long. Try building a balanced plate by choosing kidney-friendly options from your holiday dinner table. Start with a high-protein food, like turkey, pork chops or roast chicken. Aim for about 3 ounces of a protein food to keep you full and satisfied.
Next, try choosing low-potassium fruits and vegetables to fill half of your plate. These foods could be roasted cauliflower and broccoli, roasted Brussels sprouts, green beans, fruit salad, cranberry sauce or a tossed salad. Lastly, if your table offers more starchy options like noodles, rice, challah bread, or a dinner roll, add one of these to your plate to help fill you up. Of course a holiday dinner is not complete without a delicious cookie, bread pudding, or candy cane! Having a treat like a cookie or slice of warm apple pie can fit into a kidney-friendly diet. Be mindful of your portion sizes and enjoy your treat without guilt.
Choose low-sodium options.    
A big holiday meal can be high in sodium, which can lead to serious blood pressure and fluid issues for your body. If you are doing the cooking for your holiday dinner, check your seasonings twice. Opt for Mrs. Dash® herb seasoning blends or fresh herbs to add flavor to your dishes. If you are going to a family member or friend’s house for the holidays, try bringing your own low-sodium seasonings to add your own flavor in a kidney-friendly way. Remember to buy canned vegetables that are labeled “low sodium” or “no salt added,” as salt is often added to these foods. When possible, use fresh or frozen produce for your holiday meal. Ham, a Christmas favorite, is very high in sodium and should be limited when possible. Choose a lower-sodium meat like low-sodium seasoned pork or roast chicken.
For your Kwanza celebration, choosing a spicier dish like spicy seafood etouffee is helpful because the spice adds flavor and heat, instead of salt! Another tip for sticking to a low-sodium diet during the holidays is to ask for the sauces on the side. Whether it is gravy or a cheesy sauce, put it on the side of your plate to dip in instead of pouring it on top of your meal. You will use less sauce this way and keep your meal lower in sodium.
Here are some great kidney-friendly recipes for your holiday meal!
