Cooking tips

Buy Local Food : Check out farmers markets, roadside farm stands and tailgate markets (where parking lots are temporarily transformed into areas of commerce), and don’t be afraid to ask questions about where the food is grown.


Buy Local Food : See if you can find out where your food has gone before it gets to your plate. You may be suprised by the results. Often it will make financial sense for companies to transport food enourmous distances by planes, boats and lorries. This dosn't take the environmental cost into account (which of course is likely to lead to greatly increased economic costs in the long term).


Losing weight

Low calorie diet

Put simply, low calorie diet is based on the fact that if you want to lose weight, it is essential to consume fewer calories than your body normally needs.

What is a calorie?
The calorie is the standard unit for energy measurement in dieting. The 'calorie' is the the energy required to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree centigrade at normal atmospheric pressure. If your meal has more calories, then it will turn into more energy to use when your body converts it.

Low-cal foods include broccoli, swede, guava, steak and burger based meals, and white eggs.

Ingredients And Procedures

3 1/2 lb Canned, vacuum-packed sweet

Potatoes 1 c Sugar

1/3 c Bourbon

1/2 c Butter or margarine

1/2 ts Vanilla extract

2 c Miniature marshmallows

Fresh sweet potatoes, cooked until soft and then peeled, can be substituted for the vacuum packed ones. Don't use drained, canned in syrup as they are too moist. Preheat oven to 350. Put sweet potatoes in a large heavy saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until heated through. Mash sweet potatoes. Add sugar, bourbon, butter and vanilla; beat until well blended. Turn into a 2-quart, shallow baking dish. Sprinkle marshmallows over top. Bake, uncovered, 30 minutes, or until marshmallows are golden. From: McCall's Great American Recipe Card Collection
