The Recipe Instructions
 

 

Ingredients

1 cup wild rice
4 cup water
Salt, to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper, to taste


Directions

Rinse the wild rice in several changes of water until the water runs clear.
Wild rice is a grass, so there is often a small amount of debris in the
rice.

Bring the water to a boil in a 3-quart saucepan. Slowly add the rice and
bring to another boil. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer about 45 minutes
to 1 hour until rice has absorbed the water.

This recipe yields 6 servings. Serving size: 1/2 cup.

Exchanges Per Serving: 1 Starch.

Weight loss diets


The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a nutrition system initially created by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet isn’t specifically a weight reduction diet, however many zone diet fans believe that they actually reduce a few pounds when following it.
The science behind the Zone Diet is that if you manage to gain control of the levels of the hormones 'insulin' and 'glucogen', then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, as a result puts the body in a balanced state that is far more wholesome than other diets, which is known as the zone.
Sears believes that when your body is in this 'zone' it is working at its most efficient and, as a consequence, does not build up layers of fat.
The main method of the diet is to keep tight control over the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure your diet has large amounts of Omega 3 and omega 6.


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index nutrition system is linked to the gi (or glycaemic index), a list showing food types and a score representing the speed with which the energy of the food gets changed to sugar in the dieters bloodstream. The theory is that slow release types of food (ie those with a low Glycaemic index score), keep you satiated for longer and mean that you can eat less food without feeling you are missing out.
It's also extremely effective for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI food types are beneficial in controlling surges in blood sugar amount.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
