Recipe
Preparation
Cut a heart shape from each bread slice, using a 3 1/2" heart shaped
cookie cutter. Reserve bread trimmings for other uses.
Combine milk, eggs and almond extract in a shallow dish; stir well.
Dip 3 heart shaped bread slices into egg mixture, turning to coat
both sides.
Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet or on a hot griddle;
arrange the 3 slices of bread in the skillet, and cook over medium
heat 3 minutes on each side or until golden. Transfer to a serving
plate, and keep warm.
Repeat procedure with remaining bread slices, egg mixture and butter.
Sprinkle French toast with powdered sugar.
Spoon Almond Butter into a pastry bag fitted with a decorative tip
and pipe butter onto center of each heart, if desired. Garnish with
fresh strawberries if desired.
For Almond Butter: Combine all ingredients in a medium mixing bowl;
beat at medium speed of an electric mixer until smooth. Chill until
slightly firm but still soft enough to pipe.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting tips
In deciding on a meal plan, it is essential to also make sure you cut down your ingestion of refined carbohydrate, fat and salt.
Some low carb diet pointers:
* Don't miss meals
Most reduced carbohydrate recipes are, errmm.., low in carbs. Your body needs energy, and carbs are a rapid acting energy source. A low carb diet requires extreme care in managing your intake of energy, as the energy provided by protein and fat is less efficient.
Lycopene superfoods
(includes watermelon, red bell peppers and rosehip)
The chemical lypcopene is a non-synthetic coloring agent and part of the same family of phytochemicals as carotene. This chemical is the reason for the deep red color of many fruit, vegetables and pulses.
Intrestingly, unlike many other healthy agents, lycopene is not damaged during the cooking process, but is actually strengthened by going through the cooking process.
.
Lycoprene's key value is that it is an antioxidant and is believed to help to lower the probabilty of cancer.
This useful phytochemical is the most effective quencher of singlet oxygen, which is correlated with aging of the skin. It is also thought by nutritionalists to slow down the development of atherosclerosis.
