Main Dishes, Side Dishes, and Breads. Made Healthy for You

Thankfully, most of the main and side dishes, breads, biscuits, and salads don’t have sugar in them -as yet. Why say “as yet?” Because even traditional Asian foods, like kimchi, are now made, at least in the US, with GMO high fructose corn syrup or sugar. So is - to my dismay - sushi, the fast food of Japan, in many Japanese restaurants. What’s healthy about that?

So it was a challenge to me to find foods that would be interesting, easy, and inexpensive to make. Who am I? Steve Kingsley, food scientist and inventor of Sugarlesse™. My short apprenticeship with one of Hungary’s master chefs, the late Leo Surnovszky, really paid dividends this time. Believe it or not, Hungarians are just as well known for their inventiveness as for their cuisine. Leo was amazing at both. Naturally, these recipes are dedicated to him.

I won't be in the limelight for long if you keep your recipes coming through the * Made with Sugarlesse™ * contest. Can't wait to feature you!
