Hello Im a student who lives in Texas my weight loss goal is to lose over 100 pounds. My experience in the kitchen is okay but I need put more vegetables and meat in my diet. I dont eat seafood that much I just touch chicken breast, Turkey and some beef. Im not picky with my veggies though. And the recipe MUST require well done meat I follow Acts 15:28,29 and 21:25. If anyone have easy to cook and delicous low calorie and sodium recipes out there please help me out! Thank you :D feel free to add me :) xoxo Bianca

    Spicy Zucchini boats ( Curves Diet )

    4 small zucchini squash
    6 cups boiling, salted water
    4 ounces light cream cheese, softened
    ½ cup shredded pepper jack cheese
    ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese
    ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
    1 teaspoon dried chives
    medium-size bowl of ice
    Preheat the oven to 350º. Slice the zucchini in half lengthwise to make boats, then blanch the halves in boiling, salted water for 2 minutes. Drain, and immediately immerse the zucchini in an ice bath. Once the squash is cold, drain thoroughly, blotting excess water with paper towels. Using a small spoon, hollow out the zucchini by removing some of its pulp, leaving at least ¼" wall. Combine the cheeses, cayenne pepper, and chives in a mixing bowl. Stuff the zucchini boats with the cheese mixture, and place them in a lightly greased baking dish. Bake 8-10 minutes, until the squash is heated through and the cheese is melted.
