Pizza_Pancakes - A great twist on a breakfast favorite, these "pancakes" are a favorite with kids and they also reheat very well as leftovers.


Spicy_shrimp_pasta - A basic and very healthy dish with some bite, but not overwhelming spice.


Oven_roasted_veggies - A "kicked-up" version of your typical veggie side dish, these veggies hold their own even if served along side a classy pasta dish or a down-home chicken dinner. Also does a nice job of making your kitchen smell fantastic while roasting.


Parsley_potatoes - A great basic side dish that fits perfectly with any meal. Healthy and fast.


Coconut_Rice - A sweet, flavorful side dish that's perfect with a spicy stir fry or shrimp dish. With real coconut milk, it adds an exotic flair to an at-home meal.


Baked_sweet_potato_fries - A super flavorful homemade alternative to greasy, high-carb french fries. A great way to liven up a sandwich, burger or chicken strips.


Corn_bread_muffins - Sweet and soulful. There's really no other way to describe these classic cornbread muffins. Crusty and sweet on top and fluffy inside. The perfect compliment to any stew or soup.


Spanish_Rice - No longer rely on boxed versions of this flavorful classic. Made with brown rice and fresh veggies, it's the perfect side dish to any meal that needs a spicy side dish. Don't be afraid of the brown rice in this dish... it just adds a more rich flavor (and is MUCH healthier than white rice).


Ultimate_sweet_potatoes - Moist, sweet and rich, these sweet potatoes can even win over people who are not fans of the healthy tuber. These are the perfect fit for a holiday meal or a cool fall day when you just need some comfort food.


Easy_Chocolate_Fondue - A dream come true for chocolate lovers, this fondue is fantastic with fruit, marshmallows, graham crackers and anything else you can dip in it. A true favorite at parties and gatherings.


Taco_seasoning - No longer settle for the preservative-laden version you find in the local grocery store. Make your own in advance and save money while adding more flavor!


Basil_pesto - After you make this one time, you'll never settle for pre-packaged pesto again. Not only is the stuff in the store overpriced, but the homemade version is healthier for you and tastes much better.


Caramelized_onion_dip - If you like the taste of caramelized onions, this dip is for you. In a totally different league than store-bought onion dip, this healthy alternative will disappear almost as fast as you make it.


Best_Guacamole - This guacamole has an excellent taste with subtle spice. Simple to prepare and the best we've found, it's a great dip to bring to parties or serve along side your favorite Mexican dish or nachos.


Grilled_Spicy_Sausage - For those who love flavorful pasta dishes, this combination of grilled sausages and tomato sauce will be a direct hit.


Super_Salisbury_Steak - Another super simple and super tasty Recipe Rocket recipe, this great comfort food will make the whole family happy they made time to sit down for a real meal. Also packs well for lunches with a side of potatoes or vegetables.


Sweet_and_spicy_shrimp - A shrimp dish with a kick. Can be served over rice or pasta, but we recommend Recipe Rocket's Coconut Rice recipe for a delicious, sweet contrast.


Quick_lasagna - A fast and fantastic alternative to traditional lasagna, this dish has all of the flavor and none of the fuss of regular lasagna.


Mom_s_sloppy_joes - A classic family favorite, this sweet sloppy joe recipe will be a favorite at your home, too. You'll never want to waste your time or tastebuds on the factory made version of this food again.


Smokey_spicy_pork_chops - Possibly the most flavorful pork chops you'll ever eat, these chops rest in a marinade to soak up seasonings and tenderize before being grilled.


Baked_Chicken_Fingers - This recipe is a grown-up version of a children's classic. Great as an appetizer or even a full meal, serve with sides of honey, ranch dressing, BBQ sauce or blue cheese dressing for dipping.


Italian_beef_panini - No need to go to a restaurant or deli for this amazing sandwich. This will surely become one of your favorites.


Buttered_corn - Yes, it's simple, but sometimes the best sides are just that. Quick to prepare and a nutritious addition to any meal.

Marinated_Steak_Fajitas - Authentic Mexican style fajitas. Add any of your favorite fajita toppings to customize this recipe to your taste. Steak needs to marinate 1 to 8 hours - plan ahead! This recipe is great served with a side of Spanish rice.


Parmesan_Tilapia - This recipe is a great change of pace for those of us who eat chicken and beef for supper most nights. The Tilapia I buy comes frozen and individually packaged from Sam's Club. Keep a bag on hand and you'll always have a delicious supper ready to go!


Mini_Meatloaves - Love meatloaf, but don't have an hour to wait until it's cooked? This recipe is ready in half the time! Microwave some baked potatoes and heat up a vegetable and you have a meal ready to go in 35 minutes!


Cashew_Chicken_over_rice - Make your own Chinese food at home! Same great taste, but less fat because you control the oil.


Chicken_Fettuccine_Alfredo - Indulge your taste buds in this rich and creamy sauce...mmmm...good! Serve with garlic toast and a glass of white wine - who needs to go out for dinner?


spagetti_pie - freezer recipe


Lemon_Baked_Tilapia_with_Dill_Sauce - This dish has a nice light lemon taste. The dill sauce is a nice change of pace from tartar sauce.


Green_Apple_Spinach_Salad_with_Chicken - This salad is a nice change of pace. The tangy dressing compliments the sweet raisins and salty cashews.


Chicken_salad_with_Strawberries - Fresh sliced strawberries, homemade creamy dressing and candied cashews - yum! Make the dressing with low-fat sour cream and cut the fat.


Chai_Tea_Mix - Chai tea lovers - this recipe is for you! Make it yourself and save not only money but calories. Enjoy!


Turtles - Salty pecans, chewy caramel and chocolate...Mmmmm... :-)


Grilled_Chicken_Sandwich - There is a nice smoky taste to these marinated chicken breasts.


Barbecued_Chicken_Pizza - I love pizza and I'm always looking for a way to make them healthier. This pizza piles on the veggies and is light on cheese. Treat yourself and enjoy!


Zesty_Broccoli - Pump up broccoli with a splash of lemon - you'll love it!


Italian_Herb_and_Tomato_Pizza - Make your own gourmet pizza at home. You can either buy a pizza crust or make your own focaccia bread (recipe on this site). This pizza has a homemade pizza sauce you're sure to enjoy.


Focaccia_Bread - I love to make this bread as a side dish for any Italian meal I make...spaghetti, lasagna, fettuccine Alfredo...you name it! This is also great as a pizza crust. Use it as your crust to the 'Italian Herb and Tomato Pizza' recipe on this site.


Individual_Chicken_Spinach_Pizzas - Leftover cooked chicken and you don't know what to do with it? Have no fear, pizza time is here! This recipe is quick and easy - and it will help you use up those leftovers!


Chicken_Bruschetta - I love to grow tomatoes in the summer. But often times I have too many of them ripe at the same time. Not any more! The tang of the tomatoes give this chicken dish a great flavor. I love to serve this dish with garden fresh vegetables and a loaf of French bread.


Spicy_Beef_Vegetable_Soup - This is a wonderfully easy recipe for the crock pot. Great with a side of cornbread muffins.


Ham_Pasta_Salad - Pasta salad hearty enough to be dinner.

Chicken_Salad_Croissants - I love the burst of sweet from the raisins and dried cranberries and the crunch of the celery in this recipe.


Raspberry-Almond_Chicken_Tossed_Salad - Homemade sweet-tart dressing is wonderful toasted almonds and fresh raspberries.


Sweet_Potato_Fries - Mmmm, try it, you'll love them. Besides - sweet potatoes are much healthier than white potatoes!


Basil_Fries - Homemade fries at home never tasted so good. And they're baked!


Baked_Parmesan_Zucchini_Strips - Look for zucchini with bright colored skin free of bruises or spots. Generally, the smaller the zucchini, the more tender it will be. A smaller zucchini will also have thin edible skin and soft seeds.


Crockpot_Steak_Burritos - Slow cooking the steak makes it really tender. And a great recipe to throw together in the morning before work...your house will smell great when you get home - dinner is done! Homemade taco seasoning recipe available on this site. Try Spanish Rice and/or guacamole with chips as a side dish for this recipe. Or add sliced bell pepper pieces to this recipe.


Homemade_Taco_Seasoning - Yes you can! Ever since I tried making my own taco seasoning, I haven\'t gone back! The store packets are overpriced - especially once you realize every spice you need is probably already in your cupboard. I store my mix in 1/2 cup size Gladware containers.
