Absolutely Apricot Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
3 tsp yeast, (active dry)
3 cup bread flour
2 tbsp dry milk
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp butter
1/4 cup apricot jam
3/4 cup dried apricots, chopped water
Recipe
Preparation
If your machine offers the option, use the "light crust" setting as
the crust browns more due to the sugar content of the jam. Try to use
a jam with a high fruit content & few additives. This recipe can be
baked on the regular, rapid bake, or timed settings. I have a DAK
Turbo II & baked it on the reg setting. It was one of the few loaves
that have turned out really well lately...think my DAK is dying; just
today ordered a ZOJI from Irwin. The bread kept VERY well in a
Rubbermaid container...was nice & fresh for a whole week (I forgot
about the last couple of slices!). I even made it when MY
mother-in-law came to visit & she LOVED it! Hope it turns out good
for you.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easy
One useful tip is to drink plenty of water. From time to time at some stage in a hectic morning, you guess that you want a snack but in fact you might just need a refreshing glass of water or orange squash. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are quite similar, but one of the two can lead to a broken diet and the other is ok.
Some lower carbohydrate diet tips:
* Use splenda instead of sugar.
Most recipes that require sugar can be changed to make use of a good substitute like splenda. It is not exactly the same so you will have to do a bit of trial and error and it might not work for everything, but it gives pretty good results most of the time.
* Eat regular meals
Most reduced carbohydrate recipes are, not surprisingly, low in carbohydrates. Our bodies need energy, and carbs are a rapid acting energy source. A reduced carb diet needs extreme care in controlling your energy levels, as the energy provided by protein and fat is less efficient.
Lycopene super foods
(includes watermelon, red bell peppers & sweet gourd)
The nutrient lypcopene is a non-synthetic compound and part of the same family of phytochemicals as carotene. It is the reason for the vivid red color of a good number of foods.
Intrestingly, unlike many other nutrients, lycopene is not damaged if it is cooked, but is observably increased in efficacy by being cooked.
.
Its key theraputic value is that it acts as an antioxidant and seems to be of use in the battle to lower the probabilty of developing cancer.
This useful phytochemical is the most effective quencher of singlet oxygen, which is connected with skin aging. It is also believed to slow down the growth of diseases affecting arterial blood vessels.
