Garlic fries. Blueberry Pancakes. Macaroni & Cheese. Sloppy Joes. Chocolate Mousse. Who doesn’t crave these foods? But how can they be healthy?
How does she do it? In Ellie’s food world, no ingredient is off-limits. As she says, “The minute someone tells me I can’t have something, I suddenly want it ten times more. Plus, let’s face it; a lot of foods frequently found on people’s banned lists can make food taste really good.” Rather, all of her recipes follow her Usually-Sometimes-Rarely philosophy. Usually foods are the backbone of each recipe and the cornerstone of a healthy diet -- colorful vegetables and fruit, whole grains, lean meats and fish, beans, nuts, low-fat dairy and healthy oils. Sometimes foods are somewhat more refined, like regular pasta, white flour, and sugar, or a little higher in saturated fat, like some cuts of red meat. They are not the healthiest but, boy, can they make a meal more crave-able, so Ellie sprinkles them in here and there. Rarely foods are those most nutritionists say are off limits, like butter, full-fat cheese, bacon, and cream. Ellie uses these ingredients strategically so you get the most flavor punch out of them and the overall recipe is still healthy. Here is just a sample of the delicious recipes you will find inside: BREAKFAST The most important meal of the day. Stay healthier, manage your weight and boost your brain power!
