Low calorie diet

As most people know, a low calorie weight loss regime is based on the fact that if you want to become thinner, it is important to eat less calories than your body normally needs.

So what is a calorie?
A calorie is a unit of measurement for energy. A 'calorie' is the the energy required to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree centigrade at normal atmospheric pressure. If a food contains more calories, then it will provide your body with more energy when your body converts it.

Low calorie food types include broccoli, green pepper, apricot, steaks and burgers, and skimmed milk.

Ingredients And Procedures

1 lb Firm green tomatoes (approx)

Cornmeal or flour 6 Eggs

3 tb Chopped scallions

3 Basil leaves

- torn or finely sliced Salt Freshly ground pepper SLICE THE TOMATOES into rounds a little less than 1/2-inch thick and dredge them in the cornmeal or flour. Heat enough oil in a 10-inch nonstick pan to cover the surface lightly and fry the tomatoes briefly on each side, until they are lightly colored. Do not let them get soft. Lightly beat the eggs with the scallions and basil and season them with salt and pepper. Pour them over the tomatoes. Let the eggs sit for about a minute, then give the pan a shake to loosen the bottom. Cook over medium-low heat until the eggs are nicely colored on the bottom, then slide the frittata out onto a large plate. Place the pan over it, invert and return it to the heat to cook the other side. Turn the frittata out onto a serving plate and serve, hot or tepid, cut into wedges.
