Low Fat Diets Introduction
Losing Weight with a Gluten-Free Diet and Quinoa Recipes
You could be one of the millions of people that are sensitive to gluten and never realize it. This recipe book is much more than fixing meals that are low fat and healthy. It is an introduction to living life to its fullest, while feeling great. Many of the foods that we eat are not good for us. Discovering the right foods and how to prepare, can change your life dramatically.
What is Gluten Sensitivity?
This book will explain the symptoms of being allergic to gluten, or being diagnosed with celiac disease, an intolerance to gluten. Unfortunately, many people go through life, thinking that having certain pains and illness are completely normal. Wouldn't it be great if you discovered the reasons for your uncomfortable feelings associated with the stomach and colon? It is also a fact that once a gluten sensitive person omits this protein from their diet, mental sharpness tends to follow. Prepare to learn what can be done to feel better, lose weight and start enjoying life.
The first section is filled with great, low fat meals that are easy to make, delicious to taste, low in fat and void of gluten. Entrées that feature lean turkey, chicken, beef and fish, are woven in such a way, that they thought of a thick piece of roast, will never cross your mind. By using garlic, herbs, cheese and spices, a rich flavor rises to the occasion. If you are a seafood lover, seasoning like lemon, lime, cilantro and onions will increase the flavor, tenfold. Side dishes that have fresh vegetables, some raw and some cooked, are designed to go well with all of the entrées, depending on your taste. Sweet potatoes, bell peppers, carrots, and much more, are prepared to perfection, also the time for preparation is short. New soups and a variety of cheeses will be like visiting another planet, as you wonder why these foods had never crossed your path before.
Many people claim that when processed foods and gluten is removed from their diet, replaced with lean meats, and fresh vegetables and fruits, their sense of taste and smell improves. This is not part of the imagination. Preservatives dull the senses that are able to come back to life, once vitamin-enriched foods are reintroduced. This is where Quinoa plays an important part. Enter a member of the vegetable group, but disguised as a grain. An eye-opening approach to this simple weed will make you sit up and take notice of all the things you have been missing out on when it comes to healthy eating. You will learn all about this amazing plant that is inexpensive to grow, manufacture and use as a food source.
Learn how there is nothing new about Quinoa. It is over 3,000 years old and has been used for just as many years in other parts of the world. The fact that we have never heard of this inquisitive plant, should not be surprising. There are many plants that have yet to be discovered in other countries, but once someone discovers, it is like Christmas. This is the way with Quinoa. Referred to as the 'mother grain' by Ancient Incas, these Indians used this plant as food, until potatoes became more popular. You will also see the lost list of nutrients that have been found in Quinoa, and how it has the right consistency to be ground into flour. Compatible to milk for bone strength intensity and compared to cranberries for antioxidant properties, there is no reason to miss gluten, once replaced.
Section two of this book takes advantage of Quinoa and offers recipes that use this agent for adding thickness to sauces and oven meals, making croquettes, cakes and a variety of other foods that would normally require gluten-containing meal. You can also use Quinoa as a type of rice, which goes perfect with an Entrée, like Pork Tenderloin with Quinoa Pilaf. When used as a side with seasoned tenderloins, you can appreciate the robust flavor.
Separate Vegan recipes and unique chicken recipes, using Quinoa, will also give you a good reason to add this product to your grocery list. Perhaps you have never tried a Vegan dish and want to see if it is something you would like. Make the Quinoa-Gnocchi Potato Salad as a test for just how flavorful a meat-free side dish can be. Using fresh dill, green beans and onions, mixed in a tangy sauce, the this dish will complement any entrée you may serve. Breakfast recipes that include eggs, veggies and Quinoa are also tasty and hearty. Low fat doesn't leave out desserts, no matter what you have been told. Try the Gluten-Free Pecan Pie, that is to die for. Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies, Strawberry Pie, or Pistachio Cheesecake, hardly sound like your normal diet.
Low fat diets do not have to leave you hungry and weakened from lack of nutrition, but just the opposite. By changing the way that you look at foods, you will have a head start on getting, and staying healthy. The weight loss will come, as you turn your back on high fat content, sugar-filled treats and preservatives that trick you into thinking that real flavor can be duplicated. Start with a five day plan that uses low fat foods and get plenty of exercise. By using the recipes in this book, you will begin to enjoy the taste of food, be able to lower your blood pressure, improve your digestive system, and, (did you forget?) lose those extra pounds. You may also discover that you were unaware of a gluten sensitivity because you never felt so good. Enjoy the recipes and learn to experiment on your own with low fat foods, Quinoa, and always, fresh fruits and vegetables.
