Cooking advice

Time for cooking is often in short supply, but you can cut cooking time in half by making large batches and eating the leftovers another day. In an age when the average American spends only 32 minutes a day preparing food, strategy is crucial to increasing your consumption of local food.


Have a Local Food Party : Instead of counting time or distance, simply enjoy the pleasures of local food by organizing a potluck meal in which everything must be local. Keep your fingers crossed that someone will splurge on handmade goat cheese, and don’t forget some local wine, beer or juice. If you’re organizing a big catered event, the Society for Nutrition Education has a downloadable brochure to help you line up local food resources.


Dieting 101

The Atkins’ Diet
First invented by doctor atkins in the sixities, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last decade. Although not accepted by all scientists, it claims to allow fat reduction but still allows you to eat many of the foods you love, such as pork and hard cheeses.
Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet you are encouraged to eat meat and fat, it is the carbs that are on the banned list. It is often referred to as a high protein, low carb, weight loss program.
With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour.
On the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter & olive oil.

The Atkins’ Diet Theory
The controversial theory behind the famous atkins diet is that even though our bodies use both fats and carbohydrates to convert into carbs, it is the carbohydrates that are burned primarily. If we take in less carbohydrates, our bodies will deplete our fat and we will achieve weight loss. Although tempting, the atkins diet is divisive, not all experts are in agreement and a good number of allege that it might be unsafe.
