Good leftovers for dinner and I satisfied my need to create with Better Homes and Gardens "Cook the Cover". I cut the added sugar in most recipes so that each serving has only 2 teaspoon (8 grams). The American Heart Association recommends that woman get no more than 24 grams a day, and this rule of thumb helps me achieve this.
