Can you be more specific on the type of help you are looking for?

Im a big fan of making my own seasoning rubs for proteins.. as it cooks, it creates its own flavored sauce... Ever get experimentive?

I use zucchini in place of pasta. I make large ribbons out of it with a peeler (skin and all). Or, Ill take my titan tools and make faux noodles out of it. I also use the ribbons for making lasagna as well.

Its up to you... When I make a spinach-artichoke dip, its cream cheese, mayo, sour-cream, gahhhhhhlic, sea salt, black pepper, splash of worcestershire sauce, spinach, artichokes.... mixed extremely well.... and then warmed up all hot and bubbly

OK..... you can incorporate a sausage-artichoke-spinach bake inside the squash using that cream-cheese, perhaps some nice aged cheddar (aged pairs well with sausage), fresh gahhhhhhhhhhhhhlic, sea salt, black pepper and do a light dusting of freshly grated parmesan on top... make sure pre-cook the sausage about 80% of the…

What type of squash do you have?

Hey!!! Im a 15+ yr veteran What specialty are you hoping to focus on? Mine is Asian and Restrictive Intakes.... **tips her Chef hat

I agree... where you are normally doing this but lets face it: this line of work can get more physical during the day and at random times as well. I used to be one of the three-person Heimlich team members when I went for my long-term-care training.... Go with Moderate....

For me, I use "Designer Whey" ... I get a canister of chocolate and french vanilla. Each scoop yields 3g of carbohydrates, 18g of protein and the flavors are UBER YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!! I have one every morning Monday through Friday when I wake up because I cant eat solid foods right away or I get sick. So I will use…

You have three choices: 1.) Eat before you go out 2.) Choose healthy choices and ask questions about how said-food is prepared 3.) Choose whatever you want but only eat reasonable portions. Ultimately and I mean this with no disrespect... Its an easy thing to do... its up to you to decide on what you want and how much of…

Basil Pesto Chimichurri Sauce Tomatillo Sauce Ranchera Sauce Homemade BBQ sauce Roasted vegetables lightly pureed for sauces Prep of tomatoes for sauce For my breakfast smoothies

The sardines, being high in calcium mind you, do cook down a bit and the typical 'smell' isnt as bad as just coming out of the can. Personally... I'll eat them right out of the damn can... OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH sooooo good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I purchase a case of chicken, eye round, pork loin, pork ribs, pork butts, whole roaster chickens, flap-meat from our local Sam's and I break it all down and freeze it. I usually do this every four months, and everything gets rotated. Fresh produce is purchased every week. Fresh herbs are purchased as-needed and properly…

Fresh foods only, from scratch, every day and every meal is created from that. The only thing I plan ahead are for what protein we will use. Last night was Eye-Round Steaks, so I paired it with Broccoli and Cheese. The leftovers of Broccoli and Cheese was made into a soup for myself for lunch. Last night while cleaning up,…

Im freakishly white... Im so white that my legs are whiter than my arms!!!!!!! Family used to tell me that while as a kid growing up, when I had color to my face, they knew I was sick or coming down with something.... Im dark auburn/brown naturally colored hair, bright blue eyes.

OHHHH I forgot to mention... Pollo Poblanos are really good too!!!! Chicken and cheese stuffed in a roasted poblano pepper and treated just like a relleno... both ranchera and tomatillo sauce, more cheese on top.... and then I get pico de gallo on top of that... bathe them in my habanero sauces..... . . . . . . . . .…

EXACTLY! Their egg batter is egg-whites and seasonings to help bind to the roasted poblano at the place I go to my fix

No... never assume because the real rellenos shouldnt have flour in the egg... if there is flour, send them suckers back!!!!!!!!!!!! Ive got a wonderful friend who owns/runs/works an authentic Mexican restaurant on the other side of Manchester, NH... and he says "to add flour would make the dish heavy, the peppers would…

Pardon me while I bask in the glory of all that is food porn, but... Chile Rellenos....(chee-lay Ree-AY-nos) just roasted poblano peppers, filled with cheese, lightly pan-cooked with a coating of eggs, a homade tomatillo sauce on top, more melted cheese, some homemade pico de gallo on the side as a garnish.... My El…

Variety in your dishes is most certainly key.... Lets face it, there is only so much 'rabbit' food one can ingest and then you need something different... now!!!!!!!!!! lol I often spend time making new seasoning rub blends at home to change things up. I just committed some new ones the past couple of days actually. I do…

What ever decision you make, please make sure you consult with your physician/overseeing clinicians before taking anything over the counter...

I am going to mirror what others have been posting here: Pre-processed food is basically the very thing Dr Atkins himself was trying to tell his patients "avoid them".. .he was not a fan of the shakes and bars to begin with. Ill have to dig up some reading material later as its fascinating reading. Pre-processed means…

I was just at our local Sam's Club and saw those... shook my head in disbelief. Speaking as someone from healthcare, I will be very honest: I am not a fan of Dr Oz. At all. He presents himself in an extremely negative manner by advocating for things like this. Pills are not a miracle-creating item. They are simply a way…

One of the things I absolutely love about the State of New Hampshire is that any and all food-establishments' health inspection reports/scores are considered public information. I have my Serv-Safe certification for Employee, Management and Trainer - and when I have to call out on a Server that just violated either a…

WOOHOOOOOOOOO found a hella-sexy sale on chicken-breast tenders (the nice strip of chicken meat behind the breast)... only $1.58/lb so I purchased almost 54lbs worth and broke it down... So - dinner tonight (Monday 07/09/2012), I am planning on a Chicken Parmesan Bake. Penne for my husband's while I plan on making some…

Im a married 38 year-old woman with a 19yr old daughter who is preparing to go off to college next month. I work as a full time Certified Medical Reimbursement Specialist, I have a part time catering side business that I hope someday will become my full time work - I spent many years working as a Chef and dont have any…

That depends on what your caloric intake is, your planned purchases for food, your meal planning, what dietetic-choice of intake is, etc. There shouldnt be any issue with portions if you are using a scale for weighing your food. A food-scale is much more effective in portion control than any other tool available. What is…

I see that all the time at our local Sams club... and its a bloody shame!

You can reduce your risk of injuries, soreness, fatigue and whatnot by doing appropriate stretching before, during and after. Cramping included, but it can also be a sign of vitamin/mineral depletion as well.
