Morning menus are loaded with possibilities for energy foods, beginning with low-calorie eggs. Try an omelet, which is rich in protein, iron, magnesium, potassium and calcium. Add whole-wheat toast and an orange or slice of melon for more minerals, fiber, complex carbohydrates and vitamin C. Other healthy foods include low-fat yogurt, oatmeal and enriched wheat-bran cereals with nuts and raisins. These offer calcium, iron, protein, fiber and other energizing nutrients. If you want less sugar, substitute blueberries for the raisins.
Most social events are centered around food and many of us stress over what should we eat or serve. Cooking should be fun and nutritious. I would like to help make eating an enjoyable and healthy experience for the entire family on a budget. Sometimes small changes can lead to big rewards. I hope to pass on diet tips, nutrition information made easy to understand, quick and easy recipes, and a postive attitude. Life is a journey, enjoy it!
