RECIPE MAKEOVERS

Jessie Price, EatingWell's Food Editor, author of Comfort Foods Make Healthy

We all love classic comfort foods, whether they are “diner favorites” or meals you remember from Mom’s frying pan. Unfortunately, most of those classic recipes are high in fat and sodium. But that’s no reason to pass them up.

Jessie Price, EatingWell’s food editor and author of Comfort Foods Made Healthy: The Classic Makeover Cookbook, is our recipe makeover maven. She and the cooks in the EatingWell Test Kitchen develop recipes that make our favorite classic comfort foods healthy, without sacrificing flavor. Check out these articles to find recipes and tips for making your favorite foods healthy.
