Delicious...and good for you
If you can get over the ridiculous title, Devin Alexander's new book looks like it will help you keep on your restricted diet.
If you haven't heard of her, Alexander is the author of The Biggest Loser Cookbook and has a show on FitTv. Her thing is taking those favorite recipes -- the ones that aren't so good for you -- and turning them into something your waistline can appreciate.
"The Most Decadent Diet Ever!" is no exception.
So far I tried out the zucchini boats and the banana coconut muffins. Both were tasty and easy to make.
Try the zucchini on for size. It's a cool way to eat your veggies without sacrificing taste.
You'll need:
4 small zucchinis
olive oil spray (I used Pam and it tasted fine)
2 teaspoons minced fresh garlic
salt and pepper
3 1/2 ounces of crumbled goat cheese
2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons dehydrated chopped sun dried tomatoes (not packed in oil)
1 tablespoon of fresh chopped basil
Set your over to 350 degrees.
Cut the zucchini lengthwise into two halves. Run the tip of a spoon down the center to scoop out top row of seeds.
Spray lightly with oil. Flavor with salt, and garlic. Bake 19 minutes or until tender.
Sprinkle on goat cheese and tomatoes. Bake another 5 minutes.
Apply basil, and enjoy.
