Recipe
Preparation
I saw Paul Prudhomme, the Cajun cook, on a "Home" show this weekend.
He said the secret to cooking without fat is to have the non-stick
pan *HOT* when you put the vegetables in to start cooking. He
recommended the pan be at 350 degrees and he had a special flat,
circular thermometer that he lays in the pan to check the temperature.
Has anyone used one of these thermometers??? How did it work?
Paul's technique for cooking was also very interesting. He started by
browning sliced peppers (yellow and red) and carrots in the hot pan.
He later added moreof the same vegetables so that they would be less
cooked and have a different flavor. He said this added to the
complexity of flavors in the dish. He also added spices (Cajun of
course) at each level of cooking.
After he cooked the vegetables, he added 1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar
and 1/4 cup of tamari and cooked that down. He later added broth,
tomato sauce and corn starch... and more spices. I think he also put
in onions and garlic at the same time as the vinegar and tamari.

Food Tips of the Week
Losing weight
Rather than thinking about which food types you really should leave out of your meal plan, focus on the nutritionally sound foods that you are able to introduce to your meal plan. If you manage to inject some nourishing grains and vegetables into your daily routine, you'll soon see that stop feeling hungry and have a significantl;y decreased risk of giving in to those damaging midday snacks.
Some reduced carbohydrate diet tips:
* Don't miss meals
Most low carbohydrate recipes are, not surprisingly, low in carbohydrates. Our bodies need energy, and carbohydrates are a quick acting source of energy. A lower carbohydrate diet requires care and attention in monitoring you energy intake, as any energy contributed by protein and fat is slower acting.
* Don't forget the fiber
Decreasing the carbs in your meals often results in fiber reduction as well. Check for reduced carbohydrate recipes that are rich in fiber to redress this.
The brassica family, Wonderfoods that aid Your diet
(includes Kale, Broccoli, Turnip greens and Rutabaga)
Known as cruciferous vegetables, these are rich in vitamins (folate and vitamin c, for example), minerals (eg. potassium and selenium), fibre, chlorophyll, antioxidents, and indole-3-carbinol.
Over and above their most other beneficial effects, the minerals and nutrients in these are thought to significantly lower the risk of getting cancer.
