Suggestions for easy-to-make, healthy recipes?

Page last modified on: October 21, 2009

Question from Carolyn: I'm 2 months out of treatment and want to celebrate, so I'm having a party! I'm now worried that I made a mistake and that the cooking might be too much for me. Are there any easy and healthy recipes that go over well, that won't tax my energy to make?: Answers —Diana Dyer, M.S., R.D.: Reconsider having to do your own cooking and ask your friends if they would enjoy helping you celebrate by bringing something to this festive occasion. If you really still don't have the energy, then consider having it catered.; Larissa Korde, M.D., M.P.H.: I think the recipes that Diana mentioned for the buffet earlier are nice options in terms of healthy and delicious-sounding food.; Diana Dyer, M.S., R.D.: And beautiful.
