Like a lot of cooks, you probably tweak recipes slightly to suit your family's tastes and diets. A little extra spice here... sub low-fat sour cream there...
When you create your own version of a Tablespoon.com recipe, you're doing the same thing. The only difference? You're recording your changes.
So next time you want to make that chicken parmesan everybody loved so much, you'll be able to view exactly what you changed. Plus, you can share your recipe so others can try it too.
Pretty nifty, huh?

Quinoa is a popular grain in South American cuisine and is gaining popularity in the states. Its nutrition profile is impressive because it is a complete protein.
Cooking grains in chicken broth or vegetable broth adds to the overall flavor of the dish. You can also cook the quinoa in 2 cups water with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Serve a scoop of this savory salad on a lettuce leaf. Add a slice of crusty French bread and 3/4 cup of fresh raspberries for dessert to raise the Carbohydrate Choices to 3 1/2.
