Willowbrook Publc School in Thornhil,l Ontario is working hard to keep fit and healthy while raising money for needy students in Libore, Niger, Africa. In order to stay fit, students are running in the gym twice a week before school begins at 8:30 am. These energetic and committed kids are also trying to get their peers to make healthier food choices by selling healthy snacks that have been donated by local grocery stores. In October, Longo’s donated 100 apples which were sold at the school during recess. The money raised was donated to Pencils 4 Kids to support their new library and educational programs. Bravo to the staff and students at Willowbrook. Healthy snacks will continue to be sold at the school.

First Lady Michelle Obama speaks about the new food icon that will serve as a reminder to help consumers make healthier food choices at the United States Department of Agriculture, Thursday, June 2, 2011 (seated L to R Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and Surgeon General Regina Benjamin). The White House Child Obesity Task Force called for simple advice to consumers with information to help them make healthy food choices. As a result USDA has introduced the new food icon to replace the MyPyramid image representing the food guide pyramid as the government’s primary food group symbol. The new food icon will be part of a comprehensive nutrition communication initiative that provides consumers with easy-to-understand recommendations, a new website with expanded information and other tools and resources.

"Dieting Sucks – Get the BAND for Weight Loss"

Unbelievable. I saw one of these in Hollywood a few weeks ago and when I went back to take a pic it was gone. I am so happy I saw this one. I almost can not believe this is a real advertisement.

Forget dieting. Forget being healthy. Eat all the cakes, donuts and cheeseburgers your stomach can take then get the BAND for Weight Loss. NO PROBLEM!!! bleh.

I made this yesterday for dinner. It was really good!

Got the recipe for the chicken from www.easy-diabetic-recipes.com/diabetic-crispy-chicken.html

40-Wheat-Free, Low-Sugar Brownies
diabetic recipes

Instead of flour, I use chickpeas. Seriously, you’d think these were awful, right? But I made 4 different batches of brownies over two days. (The neighbors, the coworkers, and the Internet are all happy.) These were the best. Honestly. They had a good crust, they were dense and moist, they had a rich but chocolatey flavor and they weren’t too sweet. I like fudgey texture, but not a fudgey taste in my brownies.

The recipe for these will be in the Everything Cast Iron cookbook. I list directions for making it in a skillet, but have proven that by cooking for just a few minutes less they can also be made in the muffin pans.

The advantage of cast iron is that you can heat it up to really hot so that when you pour the batter in it starts cooking right away which firms up the exterior and makes them hold together quite well.

And because I was making them for a co-worker who wears an insulin pump I decided to geek out with some mathematics and figure out the nutritional value of the brownies. My recipe made 21 muffins, so I took the nutritional information for the base of all the ingredients, added them together, and divided by 21. Some are a touch larger than the others, so it may not be precise, but it’s close enough for horse shoes and hand grenades.

Ms Bento & The Mysterious Mediterranean Chicken

Image by lynn.gardner
“Mediterranean Chicken” from Healthy Calendar Diabetic Cooking (American Diabetes Association, 2004) :

Chicken with brown rice, garlic, onions, bell pepper, zucchini/courgette, canned diced tomatoes, oregano, salt substitute, black pepper and low sodium chicken broth. While I’m not sure why this dish counts as “Mediterranean” (maybe, because of its use of oregano and tomatoes?), it was a very filling and hearty stew suitable for a brisk autumn evening. Recipe claimed to serve five, but we only managed four (6WWP/serving)
