Here you will find savory main dishes that feature NO CREAM and NO CHEESE. That does not mean these recipes are dairy-free. Some of them have butter, etc. But because these recipes are not slathered with cream products and cheese, it's really easy to make them dairy-free. One easy substitution is to use olive oil instead of butter. Also, these dinner meals are inherently lighter since they are not packed with saturated fats.
- All of the recipes selected here are well-balanced, complete main dishes that feature a variety of ingredients, from proteins to pasta, and/or vegetables.
- The ingredients include a variety of meats, poultry, and seafood. Your choices include (but are not limited to) poultry (chicken or duck), meats (beef, pork, sausage, lamb), and seafood (salmon, shrimp, scallops).
- I also share lots of flavorful pasta recipes without any cheese or cream.
- You will not find salad recipes or desserts here, only savory dinners. For my salad collection - go here.
- These recipes will prove to you that you don't need rich ingredients, such as cream and cheese, to have fulfilling meals that keep you full and satisfied!
