A traditional recipe cabbage rolls Less ...

Preparation
1) Cut the cabbage into pieces about 3 inches square (you do not have to be exact). To separate into pieces, maybe 2-4 sheets thick each. Put about half in the bottom of the pan or Dutch oven.

2) Mix the meat, onions and spices, including salt and pepper. Form meatballs and nest among the cabbage leaves. Put the rest on the leaves at the top.

3) Add tomatoes and lemon juice or vinegar in a blender (or in a pot and a blender, or use a food processor). Pulse a few times. You want the tomatoes pureed partially, but still the pieces. Can puree about half of the box, if desired. You can use it in a pot on the stove and cook a little to do, if you want (it's probably better to do, to blend flavors, but this is not essential).

4) Add the tomato mixture sweetener to get a nice "bittersweet" effect. A little seasoning salt and pepper and a tablespoon of cumin, if desired. Pour over cabbage.

5) Bake at 350 ° C for 1 hour. I like going to the cover for the first 20 minutes for the juices, then remove the cover. In a Dutch oven, cook for 6 to 8 hours of light or 2-3 on.

Here & # 039; s the proper way to read a nutrition label

Updated August 11, 2014th

Nutrition labeling is an important source of information about some of the foods we eat, but it should also be noted that many, if not most, of the best options for shopping carts do not have labels are everything. This is because most whole foods (some would say "real food") does not come with a label. I am referring to vegetables, meat, fruit and other fresh foods that have all their nutrients intact, and are usually low in sugar and starch. Of course, there are whole foods with labels (such as nuts and frozen vegetables), and those who tend to glucose (such as potatoes and mangoes) instead. But for the most part, stay away from packaged foods is a good guide to healthier choices.

That is, there is lots of information to help on food labels, the food we eat - and there are parts of the label can be confusing. So we will begin to understand how to read nutrition labels, paying special attention to help on those of us eat low carb.

The advantages and disadvantages of the Sonoma Diet

Updated 16 June 2014.

Sonoma Diet More

Simple - The Sonoma Diet strength is that it is very easy - without counting calories or grams. Dimensions of the plate is used for portion control.

Positive approach - The approach should be what you are rather than what not to eat, and this is true to some extent. However, the list of forbidden foods one that is common, for example, the South Beach diet, and most of this list is for all low carb diets.

Nutrition - The focus is on eating slowly and enjoy the food. Allowed a glass of wine with dinner after the first ten days, partly for this purpose.

Nutrition - The books talks obtain a variety of phytochemicals and antioxidants, in part, by "power foods." I always like when I have a plan that focuses on the variety and nutrition. In addition, whole foods are highlighted (very few processed foods are recommended), which is always a good sign.

Structure - I think some of the most popular low-carbohydrate diets have no structure. For those who want more tips, offers Sonoma diet, but maybe too much for some.

Sonoma Diet Less

Very little flexibility in a low-calorie diet - The first wave was analyzed 900-1100 calorie menus for Women and Men 1100-1300, with 200 to 300 calories more in the second wave. It is then for most people in the first phase, and many people are taking too low, depending on the size and activity. Within a few days, these people will be greedy, that is not sustainable. "To help a little snack [raw vegetables raw]," do not work well if you are willing to sink your teeth are in - very little guidance is, what to do when you are hungry given. next chair

limited parts, especially after the first phase of the vegetables - seen by limiting the volume / high vegetables more than any other plan I have low fiber strength. This may be an unintended consequence of the food, but when I tried to follow the first wave of the guidelines in my food, I was involved with this restriction. A cup of cooked spinach filled almost half a plate of nine inches. One of my favorite breakfast - two eggs in a pile of vegetables, never fit in a seven-inch bowl. Many in the half after the first ten days of vegetables that simply is not acceptable to me.

Many forbidden foods - The Sonoma Diet emphasizes whole foods that is praising (and best), but it is a big change for most people. Most plans give more "outputs" in terms of, for example, sugar substitutes, more fat, or "extra" food. Many of them are not allowed in the Sonoma diet.

The decrease in carbohydrates in the first phase - beginning Carb accident is for many of the low-carb diets, but maybe Sonoma Diet is not intended, is low in carbohydrates, no way, so has to deal. For more information, see Arrival in the first week.

Inconsistencies and inaccuracies - To be fair, most of the popular diets, what I perceive as contradictions and inaccuracies. Be aware of this at the Sonoma diet:

  1. He says to be back again and not too little carbohydrates, and repeatedly criticized for low carb diets, but the recommended amounts of carbohydrates in the Sonoma diet is compatible with other reduced carbohydrate diets. The first wave menus I analyzed were about 40 grams of carbohydrates per day are used, and no waves Two menus are more than 100 grams (some as low as 69). It is low in carbohydrates in every respect. In fact, this system shows that low-carb diets can be high in fiber and recommend a variety of foods, including almost all low-carb diet authors.
  2. Confirmed that the whole grain bread is less Glycemic than white bread. While the loaves of wheat serious game less Glycemic than white bread, which is not the case for most of the 100% whole wheat, is used in the finely ground flour.
  3. He claims that the grains "the heart and soul of the diet," but the Sonoma diet has less grain products as "food pyramid".

Easy Eggs Florentine in just 15 minutes

Updated September 15, 2014.

Rating

This is a simple recipe and rich in vitamins, antioxidants, fiber and protein. I love it for lunch, and would even make a complete dinner. They have 1 or 2, depending on the number of eggs. A person may find that this is too much spinach, so use your judgment. When using fresh rather than frozen spinach is a manageable amount of spinach, as much decreases.

You need a pan with a lid for this recipe. Non-stick is the best.
