    Those look really good. Actually, there are a bunch of really good sounding recipes on there and from the one I looked at, easy enough for even someone as inept as me in the kitchen to make.

    If you make one and like it, please send it my way. I'm a cook in training as well.

    Deal! :smile:

    :laugh: at lower GI always being better. CONTEXT!!!! How about an endurance athlete riding their pushy for 8 hours a day. You think they want a lower or higher gi option? I'll think I'll ditch this energy gel and eat a sweet potato because it's low GI.

    Exactly what is it about starchy foods that you think is detrimental to weight loss? Whoever told you this was misinformed. Eat whatever you want at a calorie deficit and you will still lose weight.
