Knowing what to eat is one thing…making meals tasty is another. Too often we get into that “diet” mentality and wind up gnawing on lettuce leaves and eating plain chicken breast every day… BORING!
Use these recipes and meal ideas to add a little kick and save you from the dreaded “diet” stuff. Oh, and as always, no strange or hard to find “health food” ingredients and nothing too complicated or timely to prepare. I won’t cook that way and neither should you.
Oh, and if you have a good recipe send it my way. I would love to share it with everyone.
