Chicken Kebabs

Calories 192; Total Fat 6g; Carbohydrates 3g

Marinating these chicken kebabs all day or overnight in a simple blend of yogurt and lemon juice makes them succulent and juicy, but the active cooking time is only about half an hour, so they're a great quick dinner. Brightly colored turmeric is a potent antioxidant and a traditional Ayurvedic remedy for allergies. For a nutritious side, thread cipollini onions, red-pepper chunks, and mushrooms on a skewer and brush with olive oil to grill alongside the chicken. Then toss some halved, pitted fresh peaches on the grill for dessert.

Middle Eastern Bison Meatballs with Cilantro-Yogurt Sauce

brought to you by epicurious.com and NutritionData.com

Calories 431; Total Fat 32g; Carbohydrates 11g

Bison (or buffalo) tastes a lot like beef, but it's much leaner and healthier. Here, ground bison is combined with toasted cumin, coriander, and fennel seeds to make aromatic mini meatballs, served with a bright-green yogurt dipping sauce. Don't be put off by the long ingredient list: The food processor does most of the hard work. Also, the cilantro-yogurt sauce can be made ahead. Serve with whole-wheat pita or flatbread, and sautéed veggies such as zucchini and red peppers. Have some fresh seasonal fruit for dessert.
