1 cup oatmeal, * see note
1/2 cup dried fruit
1 dash ground nutmeg
1 dash ground mace
1 dash ground cinnamon
Recipe
Preparation
Recipe by: McDougall Place water, cereal, and dried fruit in slow
cooker. Stir. Cook on low for 8 - 10 hours. The mixture should be
like a thick soup, so do not add milk at the table.
HELPFUL HINTS: Each slow cooker is a little different from the
others, so you may have to adjust the amount of water needed.
For added flavor sprinkle a bit of nutmeg, mace or cinnamon, in any
combination. Try brown rice, barley, rye berries, whole oats, or wheat
berries. Cracked grains, such as oatmeal or cracked wheat, may get too
mushy for some tastes. From the collection of Sue Smith, S.Smith34,

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting tips
In deciding on a meal plan, it is essential to also make sure you cut down your ingestion of refined carbohydrate, fat and salt.
Some lower carbohydrate diet tips:
* Dietary fiber is important
Decreasing the carbs in your meals usually leads to fiber reduction also. Look out for low carb recipes that are rich in fiber to restore the balance.
* Make reduced carbohydrate breadcrumbs for breaded foods.
While you can sometimes buy reduced carb bread crumbs, you may make them yourself by simply using reduced carb bread. Simply toast the low carb bread in your oven on a sheet of baking paper. When it is well toasted, process it in the food processor using a coarse blade. Keep in a tupperware jar or container.
Foods containing carotenes
(includes cilantro, mangos and winter squash)
These foods contain alpha-carotene and beta-carotene believed to play a major part in preventing cancer, particularly those cancers involving the lungs. Most also have a low calorie count, so are ideal for including in your weight loss program.
