Some Tips For Lowering The Fat:
* Substitute ingredients with a low-fat version of the same ingredient. Try using low-fat cheese rather than the whole milk variety or fat-free mayonnaise instead of regular.
* Use 2 egg whites to replace one whole egg. Try using an egg substitute they're easy and convenient too.
* Substitute ground turkey breast for ground beef.
* Try sautéing vegetables in a small amount of water, wine or vegetable broth rather than oil or butter. Use a nonstick pan; you can reduce the amount of oil or fat used significantly. One teaspoon of oil should be sufficient if you coat the pan by brushing the oil on its surface with a pastry brush, or try a fat free cooking spray.
I also find that steaming onions and garlic with a small amount of water in the microwave produces a milder flavor (perfect when cooking for kids)
* Try using less of an extra-sharp version of regular cheese. The fat
content remains the same whether the cheese is mild or sharp but the
flavor increases with less cheese actually being used.
* When a fat is called for in recipes, try gradually reducing the amount and comparing the results with the original recipe.
If your recipe calls for 2 tablespoons of butter, try cutting it down to 1-1/2 tablespoons. If this is successful, try reducing it further next time. You may be surprised just how little fat is really needed and remember every little bit helps.

Cucumber, Tomato and Onion Salad
2 - 3 large cucumbers, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tomatoes, chopped
1/4 cup white onion, diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 Tbsp. fresh ginger, grated
2 fresh hot chilies, seeded and diced
1/4 tsp. ground cumin
1/4 tsp. ground coriander
1/2 tsp. salt
Place cucumbers, tomatoes, onion, and cilantro on a platter and toss. Combine remaining ingredients in a cruet and shake well.
Pour over salad and toss.
Chill for about 1 hour before serving. Best if you can make the dressing the night before to allow for the flavors to blend.

Combine raisins, currants and cinnamon together and toss.
Place half the mixture over the 4 bread slices.
Add 4 more buttered bread slices and the other half of raisins and currants.

In a mixer or blender, mix eggs until frothy, then add sugar, milk, cream and nutmeg and beat until mixed.
Pour mixture over bread and raisin mixture.
Allow pudding to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes so bread can absorb liquid.
Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 350 for 30 minutes, remove foil and bake 30 minutes longer.
Serve warm
