I have been eating lots of good healthy foods.  I haven't had any red meat, no butter, no more 2% milk either.  I now drink skim milk and hardly notice the difference.  Animal fat is not good for your body, it's pure cholesterol.

Here's a few pictures of what I have been eating.  Hahahha! I know you are saying "God, get a life!"  Well when I decide to do something, I try to go all the way.  Anyway, you should try these dishes, they are so good, and sooo good for you.

Grilled Chicken salad.

Grilled Chicken Salads - Looks good huh? The ingredients are baby spinach, arugala, brocholi, yellow bell pepper, chopped tomato, red onions (better for you than white).  This is topped with grilled chicken breast. For dressing I use good seasons mix using Olive Oil (the best oil for you) and then add a little balsamic vinegar to the regular mix.  I like a little extra vinegar anyway.  I didn't grill the chicken outside.  Here's how I do it. 

I take a package of chicken breasts and pound them out flat with a meat pounder.  hahaha  I don't know what they are called. Then I fry them in a little olive oil and sesame seed oil.  About 3-4 minutes each side. The twist is that while it is fying, drip some Worcestershire sauce (what's this here sauce) it gives it a smokey flavor like it was taken off a grill!  Try it, you'll like it.

Roasted Turkey Legs

Roasted turkey legs are delicious.  I hardly ever had turkey unless it was Thanksgiving. I just never thought of just buying the turkey parts. I have these at least once a week.  I usually make a baked sweet potato and have a garden salad with it and a peice of french bread.  Dulicious

I put them in a baking dish on a bed of half onions.  I rubb them with olive oil, and then sprinkle all sides with sea salt, fresh ground pepper, and some garlic powder. I also add some white wine to the dish and cover it for the first 20 minutes.  Then unvocer and bake for another 20 minutes until golden brown and the meat is falling off the bones.

Veggie Salad

Fresh Garden Veggie Salad - For my vegetarian friends, I also eat lots of salads for lunch and dinner that don't have any meat. This salad has a full package of baby asparagus (boiled for only a few minutes) and is placed on a bed of arugala and baby spinach, it also has brocholi, chopped tomato and green peppers, and 1/4 of an orange bell pepper.  I use the same dressing as the one I mentioned above. It's very important not to overcook your asparagus, otherwise it will be mushy and gooey.

The veggies in this salad are some of the best for you, esspecially your heart.  They are rich in vitamins and minerals. If you can get off the iceburg lettuce, which is made of little more than water, you will be doing your self a flavor.  The greener the veggie the more rich it is in nutrients.  If you don't believe me you can read about it here .

Paul   |2008-05-19 17:24:30 My friend Dan just emailed me and told me that frying is bad. Not true really. Deep frying is bad (not so bad though if they use the right fat) Frying skinless chicken breasts in olive oil is not bad at all for you. Reply | Quote

Q   |2008-05-19 17:36:36 That's amazing! Your salad looks like it came out of a magazine. I'm supposed to cook this girl dinner tomorrow night. 8 PM. What would you recommend? I made chicken stir-fry last time. I was good, but not very impressive. Oh yeah, I'm eating meat if you didn't know. I just decided I wasn't making any difference and no one gives a crap. Nothing we do matters anyway. Still not drinking, though. Reply | Quote

Patty   |2008-05-19 17:42:53 The salads look good! They are especially good since the vegetables are all mostly raw. When you cook them, they lose so many nutrients and vitamins. Never buy canned vegs, only fresh or frozen. Who needs the preservatives and additives. There I've had my say. Reply | Quote

Sandy   |2008-05-19 17:44:04 It looks good to me....but again, I love to eat...the bad thing is...I do like red meat. Steve doesn't like chicken, so I don't cook it very often. Reply | Quote
