The steamed clams with fennel are low in calories.
Salmon is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which helps decrease "bad" (LDL) cholesterol and increase "good" (HDL) cholesterol.
Goat cheese (in the mac and cheese) is a very good source of tryptophan, an essential amino acid.
The chocolate panforte candies are low in calories and cholesterol.
Like other members of the umbelliferous family, such as carrots and parsley, cilantro (in the chile-glazed chicken) may protect against cancer.
