Food Tips of the Week
A few tips on healthy eatingIn planning a diet, the important thing is to also endeavour to restrict your ingestion of refined carbohydrates, salt and fats.
Some low carb diet pointers:
* Make reduced carbohydrate breadcrumbs for deep fried or oven baked foods. While you can possibly buy low carbohydrate bread crumbs, you can make them yourself by using reduced carb bread. Simply toast the reduced carbohydrate bread in a pre-heated oven on a cookie sheet. Once it is well browned, grind it in your food mill. To store, keep in a tupperware jar or container.
