It’s only half way through January (yes really) and already I have had enough of the onslaught of “resolutions’ that every person on the planet seems bent on telling me about! Of course in the back of my mind are all the usual; lose weight, get control of my finances, be a kinder, nicer, greener me!
Speaking of losing weight! The steam oven obviously is the answer to fewer calories as long as you stay away from the cheesecake/mudcake/choc pot recipes.
Stick to fresh fish, steamed in small foil parcels with a dash of white wine, some chilli, coriander and sliced limes or lemons! YUM. And zero fat, low cal all the way! Or chicken breast, trimmed and butterflied, stuffed with spring onion, sundried tomato, some shaved parmesan and fresh basil leaf! Serve with some barely steamed (9 minutes) brocollini and carrots. (Maybe a mushroom sauce for interest) and all for almost no fat and very few calories.
The ideas are limitless, just make sure you stick to fresh ingredients and you can’t go wrong! So if 2008 is the year for your big weight loss, bone up on the steam oven and all it can do by visiting; (in a show of shameless self promotion!) www.steamovenrecipes.com
See you there!
