No. 9: Old Bay Beer Battered Cod Sandwiches with Malt Vinegar Slaw
Rachael Ray Show
Rachael’s cod sandwiches feature a beer batter, and to add even more flavor, Rachael adds crispy salt and vinegar potato chips to the sandwiches, yum!
No. 8: Stuart O'Keeffe's Rotisserie Chicken Alfredo

This meal can be made in only five minutes! Shocking! He tosses rotisserie chicken and fast-cooking capellini pasta with a quick Alfredo sauce for a delicious and easy weeknight meal.

No. 6: Bob Harper’s Meatloaf Meatballs with Balsamic 'Ketchup' and Roasted Squash
Rachael Ray Show
Fitness expert Bob starts by blending ground grass fed beef, pork and turkey. He then adds chopped hazelnuts, cauliflower rice, parsley, egg, grated garlic and pre-sauteed carrots, celery and onion. He then rolls the mixture into meatballs and bakes. So easy, healthy and delish.
No. 5: Three-Cheese Pasta with Brussels Sprouts
Rachael Ray Show
This is basically a mac and cheese with lots of brussels sprouts leaves, so there is less reason to feel guilty about the carbs! Rach kicks it up a notch in the cheese department, however, using mouthwatering Fontina Val’dosta, Parmigiano Reggiano and Gorgonzola Dolce. She tops with brown butter sage breadcrumbs and crispy sage leaves for the grand finale.

This make your own takeout recipe can be healthier for you, because, as Rachael says, you control the salt, fat and quality of ingredients. Rach stir fries lean pork with green beans, cabbage, onions and garlic, and tosses it with a 5 spice soy chutney sauce.
Tip: Rach serves the rice with an ice cream scoop, and puts it on top of the stir fry, so that it won’t get soggy and mushy.
No. 3: Plum Sauce Chicken and Broccoli
Rachael Ray Show
This is a delicious and healthy recipe inspired by Chinese takeout that you can make yourself at home in only minutes. Super easy and so delish.
No. 2: Garlic-Bread Chicken Nuggets with Balsamic Ketchup

You cannot go wrong if you make these amazingly delish chicken nuggets! In fact, we challenge you to make them last longer than five minutes! You might want to make a double batch if you’re planning on sharing with anyone else.
