Preparation
In a blender or food processor, grind the jalapenos and peeled garlic

well. Cut the meat into 1-inch cubes and place in a large bowl, and
cover with the marinade. Marinate overnight or all day. Place the
meat on skewers and cook on the grill over mesquite wood, basting
frequently with the sauce. Serve with warm flour tortillas and plenty
of Mexican beer with lime slices.

Food Tips of the Week
Losing weight
Drink more water. At times during a hectic day, you guess you are peckish but in truth you might only want a restorative glass of water or cranberry juice. The sensations of needing food and needing a drink are close, but one can result in a fat tummy and the alternative is ok.
Some reduced carbohydrate diet pointers:
* Replace sugar with splenda.
Many recipes that need sugar can be modified to make use of splenda instead. It is not exactly the same so you will need to do a bit of trial and error and it may not work for everything, but it gives pretty good results once you have it cracked.
* You can make delicious smoothies by using low carb yogurt.
I know, you can't really describe it as cooking, but if you love smoothies you can make perfectly acceptable alternatives by using low carb yogurt and your favorite fruit. Obviously, you will need to ensure you use fruit that is low in carbohydrates and the whole fruit as the fiber will help.
Flavonoid foods
(inlcudes lettuce, fennel, lima bean & chamomile)
The nutrients called 'flavonoids' which exist in these foods are thought by experts to have properties as anti-carcinogens.
Nutritionalists looking into the effects of flavonoids believe they may well also have numerous healthy benefits, amongst them, antiviral and anti-inflammatory capabilities.
A good number also help you lose weight, so should be included in every weight loss regime.
