Recipe
Ingredients
1/2 lb black beans, soaked
1 small onion, chopped
1 small carrot
1/2 celery rib
2 oz ham, chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, stemmed and diced
1 clove garlic
1 bay leaf, tied together with

2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp hot pepper flakes
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 lemon, juiced
1/3 cup olive oil
2 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
24 oz salmon steaks
Recipe
Preparation
Combine in a large saucepan the beans, onion, carrot, celery, ham,
jalapenos, whole clove garlic, bay leaf with thyme, and water. Simmer
until beans are tender, about 2 hours, adding more water as necessary
to keep the beans covered. Remove the carrot, celery, herbs and
garlic, and drain off the remaining cooking liquid. Toss the beans
with the minced garlic, hot pepper flakes and the juice of 1/2 a
lemon. Set aside.
While the beans are cooking, combine the juice of a whole lemon,
olive oil, and basil leaves. Pour over the salmon steaks, and
refrigerate for 1 hour. Grill the salmon over a moderately high flame
for 4-5 minutes per side, basting with some of the marinade every
minute. Serve each steak with a portion of beans.

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 lower carb diet tips:
* Use soya flour or baking mix.
When you need to use flour for baked goods, substitute soy flour or a soy baking mix such as Atkins bake mix. In many cases, you may adapt your best loved recipes that use white flour to use these.
* Don't miss meals
Most low carb recipes are, not surprisingly, low in carbohydrates. Your body must have energy, and carbohydrates are a quick acting source of energy. A lower carbohydrate diet requires great care in managing your energy levels, as any energy contributed by protein and fat is far slower to act.
Flavonoid foods
(inlcudes citrus fruits, brussels sprouts, scarlet runner bean and cayenne)
The flavonoids found in these natural foods are thought by nutritionalists to have properties in fighting cancer.
Nutritionalists researching the medical effects of flavonoids think they also have many other benefits to our health, amongst them, antiviral and antioxidant powers.
Most also have a low calorie count, so should be a part of every weight loss program.
