Weight Control Recipes Cookbook
by Rebecca J. HuntHere you will find over 120 recipes that I have used this past year to help my husband and myself to control our weights. It's not a diet that you will want to use for a limited period of time to drop pounds. It's a collection of recipes that you will want to incorporate into your life for the rest of your life. I hope you enjoy these recipes as much as I've enjoyed developing them and putting them together into this collection. They will provide you with variety, suggested servings based on guidelines found at many health related and government websites, and flavor, flavor, and more flavor. In the back of the book you will find three weeks of suggested menus. These menus will help you plan for your success. Modify them to fit the needs of both you and your family. Simply keep your proportions along the same lines. If you don't drink wine, skip the glass of wine with dinner. If you don't care for yogurt, substitute a glass of nonfat milk. You get the basic idea.

Weight Watchers Around the World
by Weight Watchers InternationalYou'll find peanut butter in soup, cinnamon in a meat marinade, and pepper in cookies. As anyone who has tried to diet by limiting their palate can tell you, it's variety of flavors that makes eating healthfully easier and more enjoyable. And while you might associate ethnic food's exotic appeal with decadence, you'll find these dishes surprisingly good for you. That's because many cultures incorporate fresh fruits, vegetables, and fish into even the simplest of suppers. And in more populous-and often poorer-nations, meat is usually used as a flavoring while fiber-rich beans and grains steal the spotlight at the center of the plate. While the flavors of these recipes are complex, most of the recipes are easy. In fact, we've included many one-dish meals so dinner is convenient, not complicated. Plus, we suggest substitutions for harder-to-find ingredients. Don't make the mistake of thinking ethnic food should be served only to the people in your family who don't drink out of a sippy cup. You'll find plenty of American and ethnic dishes to please the booster-seat bunch in these pages. My 1 1/2-year-old loves the Canadian Apple Pancakes and Baked Garlic and Cheese Grits. It's easy exposing your little ones to another culture-serve Skewered Singapore Chicken and Pineapple or Plantain Chips from Puerto Rico. When you've got the time and the inclination, make an event of it. Put on some salsa music or even a polka. Have a Red Stripe beer with your Jamaican Jerk Pork Tenderloin or Chianti with your Spaghetti Alia Norma. You may even want to eat your Pad Thai with chopsticks.
