Bacon-Lettuce-Tomato Sandwich
This “adult” BLT boasts a spread of mayo, sugar-free maple syrup and Dijon mustard and swaps arugula for traditional iceberg lettuce. Of course, there’s bacon and tomatoes.
Salsa-Baked Fish
Fresh grouper is baked under a layer of salsa, topped with cheese cooked to a bubbly and melty perfection and sprinkled with pumpkin seeds for some serious crunch and a winning weeknight meal.
