As a result of David’s reading, we are expanding our repertoire of foods. We are finding that we can eat very delicious foods that are good for us and help us lose or maintain weight.
Two excellent sources of recipes are Eating Well Magazine and Cooking Light Magazine.
Below are three recipes from Eating Well Magazine, our first recommendation from Eating Well but I am sure they will not be our last. So far, Eating Well has a success rate with us of 3 of 3.
- Chicken Tortilla Soup – Very good. 357 calorie for a satisfying serving that did not leave us hungry.
- Mushroom, Sausage, and Spinach Lasagna – Only 327 calories per serving.
- Spicy Beef with Shrimp and Bok Chok – Only 204 calories per serving. Cathy made it without the shrimp and instead increased the beef from ¾ pounds to 1 pound, which worked well with only beef (although we are sure it is good with the shrimp).

We will post more recommendations as we try them.
