    8. The BEST Guacamole
    Delicious, chunky, flavorsome guacamole.  I watched and learned from the folks at Dos Caminos in New York City.jalapeno buffalo hummus 221

    7. Healthier Spinach Linguine Alfredo
    Alfredo sauce without a ton of butter and cream?  How?  Thicken the sauce with a little butter and white flour along with some 2% reduced-fat milk and cheese.  You won’t believe this dish is made with only 2 tablespoons of butter and NO cream.  Fettuccine_Alfre_549

        OMG... you'd love the quinoa pasta.. packed with protein and so delicious. I'm cheap too Ameena, I just stock up on Rao's when it comes on sale, even if it's like $5 - $6 a bottle, that's the cheapest it's gonna go. πŸ™‚
        It was so nice to see you.. let's plan when Ali is out of town and bring Maya. It'll be nice and easier to meet for dinner so we can be out a few hours and not feel rushed.
