A Father's Day to Remember
Mix it Up with Jenny

It's true - the kitchen is the heart of the home. Ever notice how people always gather there? Whether baking treats, making dinner or spending time with family and friends, the kitchen is my favorite place to be. Since my day job is Consumer Test Kitchen Project Manager for the Nestle Test Kitchens, you can bet I love to stir things up. This column lets me pass along to you some of my best recipes, tips and baking secrets.

(Family Features) While Father's Day is for honoring dads, it's also a great opportunity to honor the men who have been father figures to us - stepfathers, grandfathers, uncles, even friends who have played that role in our lives.

This year, take some extra time to tell those men how much they've meant to you. A card or letter, a phone call or a face to face conversation - you'll give them a Father's Day gift they'll never forget.

To show them your appreciation, have them over for a special dinner. Grill up some chicken and top it with this Cilantro Cream Sauce. Serve with some southwestern-inspired rice and follow it all up with these Double Chocolate Warm Pudding Cakes for a homey dessert.

Say Cheese! Five Ways to Enjoy Cheese at Your Super Bowl Party

Newswise: Whether or not youre a Green Bay Packer Cheesehead, you'll probably serve the tasty, high fat, high calorie American classic at your Super Bowl party.

Although cheese tends to get a bad rap, with a few menu modifications it can "steel a position of honor at your festive gathering, says Saint Louis University nutrition and dietetics instructor Katie Eliot.

Cheese is actually one of the most concentrated sources of key nutrients including protein, Calcium and vitamin A and can be found in many reduced fat versions, Eliot said.


But cheese also is high in saturated fat. A one ounce portion of cheese, which is about the size of two dice, can have as much as one third of your daily saturated fat needs. So portion control is important.

Not all cheeses are created equal, Eliot says. She recommends serving harder cheeses, which are aged longer and typically more flavorful. This means a little will go a long, saving you fat and calories. Mozzarella ,the most popular cheese in the U.S.,– is another good choice because it naturally contains less saturated fat than most other cheeses.

Another tip to giving your favorite cheese appetizers and dishes a nutritional twist: try adding vegetables and whole grains. Eliot shares her five favorite tips to enjoy cheese at your Super Bowl party:


1. Cheese fondue. Use different flavors and combine some reduced fat cheeses with regular varieties. Use vegetables, apple slices and chunks of whole grain breads as dippers.

2. Macaroni and cheese. Prepare this classic dish, beloved by kids and adults alike, with a healthy flair. Start with whole grain pasta and mix in reduced fat and strong flavored cheeses like Gouda and cheddar. Top with whole wheat bread crumbs for extra crunch.

3. Cheese and vegetable skewers. Thread skewers with small bites of cheese, cherry tomatoes and marinated mushrooms for an easy yet elegant looking appetizer that is a great finger food. Use a soft cheese like mozzarella to cut back on fat.

4. Cottage cheese. Theres a lot you can do with this versatile, low fat food. Use it as a base for dips instead of sour cream or mayonnaise or as a side for a colorful fruit display.

5. Bean and cheese nachos. Turn this quintessential appetizer that is usually loaded with fat and calories into a healthy dish. Prepare the treat with black beans, diced tomatoes and onions, sprinkled with sharp cheddar, served with baked chips.

Long a leader in educating health professionals, Saint Louis University offered its first degree in an allied health profession in 1929. Today the Doisy College of Health Sciences offers degrees in physical therapy, clinical laboratory science,
nutrition and dietetics, health informatics and information management, medical imaging and radiation therapeutics, occupational science and occupational therapy, and physician assistant education.
