Comments 0 | Recommend 0Marmalades and jellies appeal
We loved the organic, small-batch marmalades and jellies from Frog Hollow Farm in California. Each contains loads of fruit and not much sugar; flavors include peach conserve, Meyer lemon marmalade and nectarine plum conserve. Each 8.4- to 9-ounce jar costs $7-$9. Mail-order only: froghollow.com or 888-779-4511.
Steam heat
Chef'n's SleekStor VeggiSteam is an easy-to-store silicone insert that can take the heat - up to 650 degrees. The 8 1/2-inch wide insert fits small and medium size pans, and is microwave- and dishwasher-safe. It comes in lime green, red or clear, and costs $10-$11 at amazon.com, Sur La Table (red only) and Bed, Bath & Beyond (red only).
All fired up
Hunt's Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes, plain or with garlic, bring a lightly grilled flavor that's great for Southwestern or Mexican dishes. Each 14.5-ounce can costs $1.20-$1.60 at various grocers.
Say yo to fiber
Yes, we realize that dairy products don't tend to make the chock-full-o'-fiber category.
Or didn't, until this one: Fiber One Creamy Nonfat Yogurt from Yoplait.
It comes in a variety of flavors, including peach, strawberry and vanilla. Each 4-ounce container has 80 calories and 5 grams of fiber. That's 20 percent of the daily recommended dose.
Wondering about the taste?
In a word: Yum.
