Everyone wants to eat
healthy, but who has the time?
And if you buy into that
common lament, you can understand why too many people choose to pick up
carryout food rather than cook meals for themselves. But as Ellen Hass points
out in Fast & Fit, you don’t need to spend hours cooking to ensure a
healthy meal.
Hass founded and is now president of FoodFit.com, a website
filled with resources for healthy eating, including planning tools, nutritional
information and recipes. In Fast & Fit, she features more than 150 recipes
that can be prepared in 30 minutes or less from some of the top chefs in the
country.
You’ll notice most of the recipes are simple to make and feature a
small ingredient list—many of which you probably already have in the kitchen.
With just a little bit of thought beforehand, you can be making dinners like
lemon-pepper fettuccine with asparagus and shrimp or grilled chipotle pork
tenderloin. You can also spice up your everyday salads with some great
vinaigrette recipes.
Forget the carryout and spend a few minutes for great
tasting, healthy meals. $16.95, Hatherleighpress.com
