INDIVIDUAL EXTRA-CRISPY THIN-CRUST PIZZAS.
If you love thin-crust pizza (I am one of you), after you taste this version, you will never buy premade crusts again. Once baked, these crusts hold well at room temperature for several days if lightly covered with a tea towel-and hold very well in the refrigerator, covered with plastic wrap, for up to a week. Make a batch on Sat.u.r.day for later in the week. Please note: This is a very generous portion-you might be full after eating just half of one personal-size pie. Serves 6 Serves 6

SALMON WITH MUSTARD CRUST AND SAUTeED SPINACH.
Almost all of the fat in this dish comes from the salmon. Fish fat is a "good" fat, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which have been shown to reduce cholesterol and the risk of heart disease. While this specific dish may not be an American cla.s.sic yet, salmon sure is, and it's a wonderful ingredient to include as a staple in your diet. Its rich flavor, ease of use, and availability make it a perfect three-times-a-week feature. Dijon mustard, citrus, and spinach are some of my favorite flavors for salmon. You can cook this in minutes under a broiler or on a grill. Serves 4 Serves 4

FILLET OF SOLE MEUNIeRE.
Meuniere is fancy French for a brown b.u.t.ter sauce. So why would I take on a dish whose deliciousness is dependent on b.u.t.ter-the enemy of healthy people?

SEARED TUNA WITH GREEN BEANS, LEMON, AND WASABI.
This dish isn't a makeover, per se. But there are so many beloved-and believe it or not, unhealthy-seared tuna dishes out there in the restaurant world that I thought I should offer at least one healthy version. The tuna is never the problem. Tuna is rich in nutrients, low in fat, delicious, and just a good bet all around. It's the stuff that's put on top that's the problem-anything from seared foie gras to deep-fried tempura crispies. Sure, it tastes great, but those additions turn a healthful dish into an artery-clogging one. Serves 4 Serves 4

GRILLED TUNA WITH SEAWEED SALAD.
Even a dish as simple as grilled tuna can get out of hand if the sauces and sides are calorically wacky. In this recipe, most of the minimal fat comes from the tuna-and the rest is from toasted sesame oil, which provides a lot of flavor. The ingredient that I really love here is the furikake furikake, a j.a.panese rice seasoning made with bonito flakes, nori flakes, and other seasonings like sesame seeds, dried anchovies, or bits of egg-the sky is the limit. It can be found, along with prepared seaweed salad, at most Asian markets. Serves 4 Serves 4

BOUILLABAISSE.
Bouillabaisse is a rich, traditional seafood stew from the south of France. It always contains garlic, saffron, and, of course, seafood. It's almost always served with a garlic-and-mayonnaise concoction called rouille rouille spread on grilled bread. In order to save time, this version calls for prepared clam juice, mussels, and boneless fish fillets (in the traditional version, usually several types of small flavorful fish are sauteed in olive oil and simmered for some time). The clam juice and mussels are very flavorful. In order to save on fat and calories, there's no added olive oil-and I omitted the spread on grilled bread.

JAMBALAYA.
This Cajun dish is so a.s.sociated with good times that Hank Williams named a song after it. The original isn't so good for you, though. I made a few changes to the cla.s.sic to make it easier to prepare-and much healthier. White rice has been replaced with brown, and much less fat is used to cook the vegetables and meat. Feel free to improvise by adding chicken, fish, or vegetables. Serves 4 Serves 4
