Beef Stew – (Pressure Cooker Recipe)

A soup, chili, or stew is one of those satisfying comfort foods we look forward to on a chilly day.   My grandchildren enjoy this dish as well, so I occasionally prepare it for them as well. Preparing beef stew on top of the stove, the traditional way could be time-consuming, but it only takes 15 minutes in a pressure cooker.

Baked Sweet-Sour Red Cabbage – German Recipe

Baked Sweet-Sour Red Cabbage is one of my favorite side dishes to prepare to utilize the oven while cooking a roast, or roasting a whole chicken since it takes 1.5 hours of baking to complete this recipe.

Foundation – Phase Two-The Fat Smash Diet

Congratulations!
The Detox Phase of the Fat Smash Diet was successfully completed after the 9th day.

Didn’t the 9 days just fly by?  Aren’t you feeling better already?  It feels great!

Phase Two is much easier to keep up with than Phase One, regarding the food selection.  Even though we still continue with all the foods from Phase One, we are making new additions.  In this phase, we are introducing back some of the foods excluded during the past nine days.  The importance of eating 4-5 smaller meals per day remains in addition to the healthful snacks in between.

The Fat Smash Diet – Healthy Lifestyle

If you have been following my blog, you already know that I am very impressed with The Fat Smash Diet, and I love following all the phases at least once every year, with gratifying results.

Of course, before making this decision, you should consult with your Primary Care Physician to be assured that your medications and pre-existing conditions will allow you to make these lifestyle changes.

Some people feel it is too harsh (no coffee or alcohol for 9 days), but it works for me.

Chickpeas Vinaigrette – Vegetarian/Vegan Recipe

Chickpeas, also known as Garbanzo Beans, are very high in protein. Thus, they are an excellent food choice for vegetarians/vegans and all other healthy eaters.
Vinaigrette salads are much lower in calories and healthier to incorporate into our everyday eating habits, unlike those with mayonnaise. This chickpea vinaigrette salad has the perfect combination of ingredients and is so delicious.

It is effortless to assemble, and holds well refrigerated for several days.  It is perfect for any occasion, such as party food, a light lunch, or a healthful snack.
