| In cleaning out the kitchen cupboards and
the fridge it's surprising the tasty dishes you can
create using a little imagination. I like to call them
"rightunders" as opposed to leftovers, as
you're preparing these recipes using items found right
under your nose. My friend Nancy, a fitness guru, and
I got together to come up with a few dishes that are
innovative, healthy and most of all, yummy!
