| | Homemade Delicious Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookies | | 2008-08-18 10:53:00 | | Kids go wild when they see cookies, especially chocolate chip cookies. Why kids, even adults can't control their appetite for chocolate chip cookies. This type of cookies is very famous in the United states and is often baked in most of the homes here. I bet there will be no parties without these chocolate chip cookies! They are so scrumptious and have such a great aroma and texture to them.

| | Elephant Ears Tasty and Delicious | | 2008-08-12 17:28:00 | | Have you ever tried elephant ears before? Did you like it? If you ask me, I like eating elephant ears, perhaps if you have not tried it before, you might think, I do eat elephant ears (lol) it is just kind of food made from flour if I am not mistaken and fried and put some tasty toppings on top such as cinnamon, apple, cherry etc. You can see the picture that I had during the harbor day celebration in Elk Rapids. Every time when hubby and I go to the carnival, I buy elephant ears (yum yum!). (posing with my elephant ears, okay, lets eat now honey hmmm...) | | By: My Trails In Life | | |

| | Delicious summer meal-- inexpensive, too! | | 2008-07-15 11:54:24 | | For two people:Take a loaf of Italian bread and slice it lengthwise. Put it in the oven until it is almost brown. While it's toasting, chop one tomato very fine and peel a clove of garlic, cutting off the root end to make a flat surface. When the bread comes out of the oven, rub the clove of garlic over all the white part of the bread-- edges, too. Take half the chopped tomato in your hand and lightly squeeze some tomato juice onto the bread, then spread the tomato on one half of the bread; repeat with the other half. Very lightly drizzle some olive oil on the bread, then sprinkle oregano to taste. (Dry oregano is actually better than fresh.)I like to add a llittle crumbled feta cheese; fresh mozzarella sliced and cubed is also great. Of course, you can add as much as you want!-- olives, sliced onions or fresh peppers. But somehow, the simpler, the tastier. Try it.Still not too late to put in a tomato plant (if you can find one). you'll have tomatoes in September.Nice Italia | | By: Michaelann Land | | |

| | Delicious Dinner for Hubby | | 2008-06-29 03:17:00 | | I cooked food sometimes for my husband showing that I do care and love him. We eat out often, so when I get a chance, I cook something he like and I cooked breakfast, lunch or dinner for him. I just cook about 3-4 times a week and the rest we eat out and that is why I try hard not to eat crappy foods and if I do, I do exercise in the pool or in the ocean together with him. Sometimes, I am lazy to cook especially when I am doing something here in the computer like updating my blogs and chatting with my sister and my family back home in Philippines. I can cook but I am not a good cooker, I tried and invent, and I learn. Most of the time, he likes what I cook for him and perhaps I am getting better when it comes in cooking (lol).You can see below the chicken that I cooked for my hubby. What do you think?

| | Delicious. | | 2008-06-09 15:10:00 | | June 10 ... Thinking of the words yummy and yum-yum for yesterday’s post led me to consider other words of appreciation that we use for food. The first word that popped into my head was the very uninspiring , delicious, which did not immediately suggest a story. Sometimes (as you may have noticed), a short trip into the Oxford English Dictionary will rescue me – so there I went. The OED says that delicious means ‘highly pleasing or delightful; affording great pleasure or enjoyment’. No argument with the editors there. In tiny print underneath this definition however, was the qualification ‘In mod. use, usually less dignified than ‘delightful’, and expressing an intenser degree and lower quality of pleasure.’ I am both intrigued and frustrated by this sub-text. Firstly. I had no idea of this particular nuance, did you? The ability to assign a greater range of nuances of dignity to a dish is wonderful news.

I am not really fond of eating sweet food but I just grabbed 4 slices as seems the brownies urging me to eat sweet food and I took 4, because I was thinking might my hubby will be going eat too or perhaps later I can eat it.

| | Sexercise! The Delicious Way to Lose Weight | | 2008-01-14 19:01:23 | | You’re standing in front of the mirror naked, cringing at the sight of that stubborn bulge. After two months of Tae-bo, three months of weight training, and that brief sting you had with step aerobics, it still doesn’t wanna go away. Aside from all this exercising, what’s left for you to do? Fitness experts agree that to shed off that extra weight, you should make every moment an exercise moment. By integrating exercise into your daily routine, you burn extra calories with little effort. How? They advise taking the stairs instead of the elevator at work; carrying your purchases in a basket instead of pushing a cart at the grocery store; or even parking your car in a far away slot when you go shopping so you’re forced to walk the distance to the entrance. But there’s another sweat-inducing activity a lot of fitness experts seem to have overlooked: sex! Pairing OffIt takes two to tango—and to make this workout work. If you already have a partner in mind, then you can skip this section and get on with your workout. However, if you are currently unattached, a word of warning: finding a partner is no easy task. To reap more than just physical rewards from this workout, you must find yourself a perfect match—in and out of the bedroom. The success of this program ultimately depends on the willingness of both parties to work hard at achieving their weight loss goals. What’s the most important criteria for choosing a partner? He should have about the same amount of stamina as you do. The worst thing you can do is pair up with someone who is at a different fitness level than you are. Twenty-three-year-old Janine, a firm believer in the sex for weight-loss program shares her story. “I was going out with a soccer player when I was your classic couch potato. Halfway into it, I’d already be tired. He was the Energizer bunny and I was a vegetable. It was quite embarrassing.” Marianne, 24, had the opposite problem. “I work out three times a week but my | | By: What I Think... | | |

| | Achari Paneer Tikka Wraps - Healthy and Delicious!! | | 2007-12-11 14:10:04 | | As an Indian, I am bound to be biased by Paneer, but frankly, even if I wasn't an Indian, there's no way someone could have kept me away from this magical ingredient called Paneer (Cottage Cheese)!! It is healthy, rich in proteins, less on trans fat, and can impart tremendous richness and flavor to any dish that it goes into. One of the easiest wasy to relish paneer is by making Paneer Tikka, that is, marinating it with spices and eating it with veggies. So I just went one step ahead and combined the paneer tikka with some chilli-garlic pickle, added veggies and cheese and wrapped them into wheat parathas to make these extremely inviting Achari Paneer Wraps. I was first exposed to these wraps at an Indian restaurant called Amber Bytes (which I'm going to review very soon!), and I was totally taken over by the taste.

If PETA can't think of a better way to handle over population- both creatively and nutritiously, then they should just shut the hell up. Animals are consumed. They are slaughtered in order to be consumed, usually. Slaughtering an animal is considered unethical treatment. So does this mean that every PETA a vegetarian? Please cure my ignorance. .. and do cats have wishbones? Can you hear it snapping as two Chinese people play tug of war with it? A cat is caged at Qingping market in Guangzhou, capital of Guangdong province, China, December 10, 2007.

| | Delicious divorce! | | 2007-11-19 04:32:00 | | How can divorces be delicious? For starters, Cadbury Schweppes plans to bring in Cadbury plc as its new identity once its separation is complete. Strategically, the company will take up a cost reduction initiative to ‘focus on fewer, bigger and more value-creating initiatives’ and ‘significantly reduce complexity across all aspects of the business’. Cadbury now plans to close 15% of its manufacturing sites globally while reducing 15% of its labour force. This is to achieve mid teen percentage margins by 2011, from the 10.1% in 2006. Over the next four years, the company aims to abridge its organisational structure for better execution of a focused commercial strategy. It was in March 2007, that Cadbury announced its plans to split Americas Beverages and confectionery, and of late confirmed that a ‘sale is the more likely expected as a outcome’. While showcasing tremendous confidence, the company believes that both the businesses have enough potential to operate in independent ways. On this cost reduction programme spanning 2007-2011, the estimated investment has been decided at $895 million, of which $99.4 million will be non-cash. Furthermore, the company has also restructured its confectionery business, with Britain, Ireland, the Middle East and Africa (BIMA) forming one part, while Americas, Asia Pacific and Europe (rest) representing the other.For Complete IIPM Article, Click on IIPM ArticleSource : IIPM Editorial, 2007An IIPM and Professor Arindam Chaudhuri (Renowned Management Guru and Economist) InitiativeRead more:-IIPM FACULTY - http://iipm-bestfaculty.blogspot.com/IIPM PUBLICATION - IIPM, Best Management InstituteIIPM-ARTICLE - http://iipm-newsarticle.blogspot.com/IIPM-ARTICLE AND PUBLICATION - http://iipm-press.blogspot.com/IIPM EDITORIAL - http://iipmeditorial-iipm.blogspot.com/ | | By: IIPM-World | | |

| | Deceptively Delicious: A Book Review | | 2007-10-10 15:35:00 | | A few years back I found a web site that had simple substitutions for eggs and oil in baking recipes, things like apple sauce and zucchini purees. Though I thought that this was a great idea, I soon realized the irony of trying to feed my family healthy foods this way, but only being able to find recipes on that site for the very things that are supposed to be eaten in moderation. Man cannot live by zucchini bread alone.Then I found another site that proclaimed the many virtues of baby food. Good idea in theory, until you actually taste the stuff. Sure, I managed to hide Emma's unwanted green beans and squash in a few batches of spaghetti and chili, but using baby food for cooking just isn't cost effective. Baby food is quite expensive.A few weeks ago I was given the opportunity to request another book to review for HarperCollins, and right away I went for this book: Deceptively Delicious- Simple Secrets to Get Your Kids Eating Good Food by Jessica Seinfeld. I had already toyed with the idea of secretly stashing veggies in our meals, and had even pulled it off a handful of times... so why not give this cookbook a whirl?From the moment that I received this book, I was interested. For starters I LOVE the style and illustrations, it's very 50's. I'm diggin' it! The book also has lots of yummy photos of the prepared food, footnotes and reviews from Jessica's family (including her famous hubby, Jerry), AND tidbits of information from nutritionist Joy Bauer. Another thing that I loved about this book is that both the author and the nutritionist support not only sneaking in fruits and veggies when you can, but they both are aware that kids need to see actual fruits and veggies on their plate. Sneaking produce into your child's diet isn't a substitute for good eating habits but they do recommend it for kids who are reluctant to do so.If you are like me, the thought of pureeing food may seem a little intimidating at first. What I loved about this cookbook is that the author tells you everything you will need to prepare the fruits and vegetables, and gives you tips on how to prepare them by various methods ( steaming on the stove, by steamer or rice cooker, or in the microwave, or baking/roasting in the oven).The beauty of all of this is that you don't HAVE to do all the prep work of washing and chopping if you don't have the time or simply don't want to. If you are short on time, are willing to spend just a little more money, or just don't want the hassle of the first few stages of prep work- buy frozen fruits and veggies. These products are always picked at the height of ripeness and are flash frozen so that none of the nutritional values are lost, AND you don't have to worry about a drawer full of produce going bad because you didn't get around to it.Jessica recommends that you put aside about an hour a week to get all of your pureeing done, that way you aren't swamped with the prep work when actually making meals. She then recommends separating the purees out into 1/2 cup portions into freezer bags so that you can pull out a bag at a time as needed.I was able to steam broccoli and cauliflower in my microwave in 2 batches, and I pureed while the other batch was steaming. In the meantime I roasted fresh sweet potatoes in my oven. It was all pretty easy since I used frozen veggies, just cooking them in the microwave allowed them to steam themselves without any added water.The true test? My household of picky eaters. Monday I made chicken nuggets that were battered in a coating of egg and broccoli puree, then bread crumbs and *flax seed meal*. Both of the girls enjoyed it, and Anna even said. "DELICIOUS mom!" Emma picked at it once it cooled off, but she had a healthy portion. They also loved the pan fried (more like sautéed, really) mozzarella sticks with cauliflower puree. For dessert they had non-fat frozen yogurt popsicles with pureed strawberries, cherries and raspberries. Both kids absolutely love these and want them all the time. Anna was happy to have all of this for dinner again Tuesday night!I have to admit that I really enjoyed all of these recipes myself, but my favorite is the Chocolate Peanut Butter Dip (with non-fat cream cheese) for fruit, we all had that as a snack Tuesday. Oh dear Lord... scrumptious!This cookbook isn't one of those books where it's full of fancy dishes you've never even heard of, it is full of American favorites, cover to cover. I'm looking forward to trying out her mac and cheese, meat loaf and brownies. Yes, that's right. I said BROWNIES.I couldn't have gotten this book at a better time. Recently Anna has had BMI changes, and not for the good. Since John and I are both overweight, and since Anna is at the age now where eating habits are bad but changeable I am taking this very seriously. Anna is in the "at risk for being obese" BMI numbers, and that scares me. I'm not going to rely on the whole "she'll have a growth spurt and lose the chunk" school of thought. I don't want my child to struggle with weight issues her whole life because I didn't stress the importance of eating healthy. I'm man'ing up, so to speak and it feels good!So, I'm also looking forward to feeling better about the choices our family makes at meal time. Getting joy out of sneaking in a few veggies doesn't hurt either. I get that victorious "muahahaha!" mom feeling, but in a good way. If you have issues with eating healthy in your family and are struggling to get the good stuff in, or just want to continue to give your family high quality food and need new recipes I highly recommend this book.*Caution for first time flax seed/meal users- use smaller amounts than what the recipe requires at first. Since it is mostly fiber, it will have a laxative effect. I recommend using smaller quantities then building up to the recommended amount per recipe. **** All the book reviews done for HarperCollins or Collins Publishing (an Imprint of HarperCollins Publishing) are done with one stipulation- I receive the book for free and read it. If I like it, I review it on my blog. These are not paid reviews per se, except for receiving the book.*** | | By: Almost Somewhat Positive | | |

Pour cottage cheese into a strainer overnight, and let most of the moisture drain away. Then mash the drained cheese with a little whipped cream to round it off.http://minareceptsamlingar.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss

| | How to Make Delicious Flavored Yogurt | | 2007-04-23 02:43:00 | | Why buy non-healthy versions when you can make your own? Here's a quick and easy way to create a fantastic strawberry-flavored, good-for-you yogurt.One of the things that I hated giving up when I first started the Metabolic Typing diet was my flavored yogurt. I absolutely love yogurt, particularly strawberry.I use my all-time favorite yogurt, Greek yogurt, Fage brand, though you can use any type of plain, preferably organic, yogurt you like.Then what I used for the strawberry flavoring is this fantastic jam, the best I've ever found. It's the St. Dalfour brand, and it's sweetened with grape juice rather than sugar. It's got whole chunks of fruit in it. It's a simple product, with only fruit, pectin to set the jam, and grape juice. Not half bad for ya and fabulous!All you do is:Pop a couple dollops of yogurt in a serving dish.Mix in one dollop of jam.There you have it! So yummy! Enjoy! | | By: Full Time Income From Home | | |
