âMy husband and I have high cholesterol, so Iâve been trying to lighten recipes to meet our needs,â explains Mary Lou Foley of London, Ontario. âThis main course is so good, even my two small grandsons come back for more!â Ingredients:

3 tablespoons hoisin sauce |
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce |
1 tablespoon honey |
2 teaspoons rice vinegar |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce |
