Dieting Asian Style

Lately, my weekend menus have featured an Asian meal. I've discovered that it's an easy way to have a meal that is diet-friendly, nutritious and full of flavor. The recipes are a little labor intensive but that makes them perfect for weekends when I have time to indulge my inner Julia Child.
