How many eggs it is okay to eat? Do I need to worry about the cholesterol? Should I eat egg whites only? Why do people do that anyway?
If you’re looking for a protein-rich breakfast, eggs are the most popular option. Scrambled, hard-boiled, sunny-side-up, deviled, or in omelets and frittatas, eggs are one versatile food. And a nutritious [...]
Yes, more recipes today, and I promise they aren’t chicken I think the first batch of recipes published in the Nutrition Solutions manual were awesome, but my goal for the next version of the cookbook is to develop more SIMPLE recipes, requiring fewer ingredients and less time.
Anyway, here are the latest two dishes created [...]
I mentioned how cooking up several large batches of vegetables makes it easier to consume more all week, and the same goes for cooking up some protein foods in advance. Fire up the oven or stove, get a bunch of things going at once, and in an hour you have set yourself up with healthy meals [...]
Yesterday, Sunday, I got to do one of my favorite things: stock up at the Farm Market and cook til the cows come home. Well, no cows, actually, but we’ve got enough food to feed them when they do get here! And since they like vegetables too, they’ll feel right at home.
If you do one thing [...]
Reader Julie asks “I need a little perspective… what is a reasonable amount of sugar for a snack? I generally only drink water, coffee and tea — so I’m more interested in learning about sugar content in little snacks we so innocently consume!”
Well, like so many nutrition questions, the answer is “it depends”. Rather than leave [...]
Well the results of my study are in….and it turns out that even Nutritional Science professors and graduate students underestimate the amount of sugar in VitaminWater beverages. When posed alongside 2 strawberry frosted pop-tarts, a measured pile of gummy bears, and a package of Reese’s peanut butter cups (2), the VitaminWater was consistently, and incorrectly, often [...]
During the economic slump we’re all experiencing, finding some good healthy food that’s inexpensive sounds extra-delicious! Here are some food bargains I discovered today.
I wasn’t looking for groceries this morning in Target, but when walking by the food section, I figured I would take a look. Glad I did. I found Swiss Miss diet hot cocoa mix for [...]
Definitely check out this page if you eat foods with peanut butter ingredients! You may have heard that a lot of products are being recalled for potential salmonella contamination. You do not have to worry about jars of actual peanut butter you might have at home, because the peanuts in question weren’t sold to consumers. Rather, [...]
The Center for Science in the Public Interest has taken on Coke over their misleading marketing of VitaminWater. VitaminWater beverages are sold with health-promoting messages implying that they are good for you, including words such as as Rescue, Endurance, Energy and Defense. According to a CSPI press release,”VitaminWater is Coke’s attempt to dress up soda in [...]
Yes, just for you, my lovely client who made a face when I mentioned my Thai food – because ewwwww, you hate coconut – I made it another way.
Instead of using a 14 oz can of coconut milk, use a smaller amount (8 oz) of skim milk or UNSWEETENED soy milk. The only noticeable [...]
If you like Thai food, but (like me) always figured you couldn’t possibly recreate those flavorful dishes at home – good news.
These spice pastes from Thai Kitchen are truly awesome, I picked up Red Curry and Green Curry paste, and I am hooked! Just mix 1-2 spoonfuls with a 14 oz can of coconut milk in [...]
Tonight I hung out with my good friend (and extraordinary photographer) Frank. We had some great food, a bunch of laughs, and snapped some sweet pics for the cookbook.
5 Minute Flatbread Pizza
For a quick and tasty dinner, top a high fiber tortilla with veggies, sauce, and/or cheese, and pop it in the oven for about 10 [...]
Everyone I know has a preference when it comes to chocolate. Some of us only like milk, some of us only dark, some people like white chocolate too. Some people will take any of the above, but have a favorite. Well if you like dark chocolate, here’s one more reason to choose it over the other [...]
A recent study (12/30/08) indicates that taking antioxidant vitamin supplements, such as vitamins C, E and beta carotene, don’t do any good in terms of preventing cancer. No protection against developing cancer, no protection against dying from cancer. Rough news for the supplement industry, which in the last year has taken hits from several studies showing [...]
