DIET TIPS
Three whole grain servings a day, like oatmeal, brown rice or whole wheat bread, can lower your risk for type 2 diabetes by 20 percent or more.
If you tend to snack in the evening, try taping the refrigerator shut after dinner as a reminder to stay out.

Breakfast Burrito (Makes 6 Servings) From Tennessee Fitness Spa - used with permission [visit their site www.tfspa.com] Ingredients 1/2 cup low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups Egg Beaters or other egg substitute 1/2 cup egg white (4 eggs) 6 whole fat-free wheat tortillas 1 cup chopped vegetables - onions, peppers, mushrooms, etc Directions Sauté chopped vegetables until tender. Combine egg beaters and egg whites with vegetable mixture. Cook until done. To assemble, place 1/3 cup of the cooked mixture inside each tortilla and top with cheese. Roll up, folding under ends, and bake approximately 15 minutes at 300 degrees. Counts as 1 breakfast entree. Serving size is 1 burrito and equals 174 calories.

| Eggs and Salsa Submitted By: Debra T. Ingredients (for each) 1 slice canadian bacon
1 Tablespoon salsa 1 egg 2 Tablespoons grated cheddar cheese ( I like the 2% Kraft) Pam cooking spray Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray ramekins with pam. Stack ingredients in order given. Bake for 15 minutes for runny eggs, or 20 to 25 minutes for medium to hard. Use this like a NS breakfast entree, adding a protein and a fruit. Or since you really already have 2 proteins and no carbs, you can add a good carb instead of the extra protein, being careful not to exceed the equivalent of 1 slice regular whole grain bread or 2 slices low carb bread, about 70 calories. |
| Puff Blintzs with Berries and Cheesecake Sauce (Makes 4 Servings) Submitted By: Debra T. Ingredients 1/2 cup Fat Free cream cheese
2 Tablespoons Splenda 1 Tablespoon FF milk 1 teaspoon vanilla 1cup frozen berries, thawed 2/3 cup buttermilk (or FF milk w/ 2 Tablespoons vinegar to curdle) 1/2 cup flour or 1/3 cup soy flour 2 rounded teaspoons Splenda touch vanilla 1 large egg plus 1 egg white Pam cooking spray Directions Combine cream cheese, the 2 T. Splenda, the 1 T. FF milk, and tsp. vanilla until smooth. Set aside. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Coat a 9" pie pan with Pam. In mixer, blend buttermilk, flour, rounded tsp's Splenda, vanilla, and eggs until smooth; pour in prepared pan. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until puffy and golden. When puff sets, cut in 4 wedges and divide between 4 plates. Spoon equal amounts of cheesecake sauce and berries over each. You may have to sweeten the berries. This makes 4 servings at 138 to 175 calories, depending on the ingredients, so you can use it just like a NS breakfast entree, adding another protein and fruit. Or since it already has fruit, you may want to add the equivalent of that in carbs (ex. either 1 slice regular whole grain or 2 slices, low carb, about 70 calories). Me, I usually go for the lowest I can on calories and just have a double serving! This is delicious! |
