From Fiona Haynes, your Guide to Low Fat Cooking
St. Patrick's Day is just over a week away, and if you have thoughts of preparing a St. Patty's day feast, here are some lighter options from pot roast to some green-hued soups.

Slow Cooker Pot Roast
Beef may not be the leanest of meats, but there are lean cuts (5 grams of fat or less per three ounce serving) which can, if eaten sparingly, be part of a overall low fat diet. The trouble with lean cuts of beef is that they can be tough and chewy, so cook your lean beef in a slow cooker and transform a potentially tough cut of beef into a meltingly tender dish that's chock-full of protein, vitamins and minerals.

Lean Beef Stew
Lower in fat than corned beef, this slow cooker beef stew makes a great alternative. Serve with some steamed potatoes and cabbage for a traditional St. Patrick's Day dinner.

Irish Soda Bread
All you need to make Irish soda bread is four ingredients, and there's no yeast required. Serve some Irish soda bread with a nice slow cooker pot roast and some cabbage.

Fruit-Studded Irish Soda Bread
Enjoy a sweeter version of Irish soda bread with this fruit-studded version that uses raisins and orange zest to add extra flavor.
