Great Dishes
Made Right, Light and Easy  (Family Features) - What qualities turn a good dish into a great dish? If a
recipe has family-pleasing flavor and appearance, offers
sound nutrition and lower fat, and is easy to make, it
should go to the head of the class. If not, that recipe
could benefit from a little "family dinners" homework.
But relax, this is easy. Simply switching to evaporated fat-
free milk is great way to increase nutritional benefits and
flavor! If your soup, bread, casserole, main dish or dessert
recipes call for refrigerated milk, using evaporated fat-
free in place of low-fat or fat-free refrigerated milk means
getting twice the calcium and protein, zero fat and a richer
taste. One-half cup of evaporated fat-free milk has only 100
calories, yet 35% of the Daily Value of calcium and 25% of
the Daily Value of vitamin D.
