Ingredients
1 large egg
2 large egg whites
3/4 cup skim milk
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp baking powder
8 slice 1/2 thick italian bread
2 tsp vegetable oil (canola)
1 tsp butter
1 cinnamon syrup
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup dark corn syrup
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup evaporated skim milk
Directions
To prepare French toast: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together egg,
egg whites, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and baking powder until
well blended. Place bread slices in a large, shallow baking dish and
pour egg mixture over the top; turn to coat evenly. Press a piece of
wax paper directly on the bread to cover it, then cover dish with
plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight. To make cinnamon syrup: In small
saucepan, stir together sugar, corn syrup, cinnamon and 1/4 cup
water. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring
constantly. Boil for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in
evaporated skim milk. Let cool; transfer to a small pitcher. (The
syrup can be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for up to a week.
If desired, warm before serving.) To cook French toast: Heat 1
teaspoon of the oil and 1/2 teaspoon of the butter in a 12-inch
nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 of the soaked bread
slices to the pan and cook until golden on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes
per side. Transfer the toast to a platter and keep warm in a warm
oven. Cook the remaining slices in the same manner, using the
remaining 1 teaspoon oil and 1/2 teaspoon butter. Serve with cinnamon
syrup.

Weight loss dietsThe South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet created by Dr. arthur agatston which encourages that one should consume "good carbs" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Dr. agatston developed the south beach diet for his cardiac patients, as a consequence of his detailed analysis of scientific studies on other weight loss systems. "good" foods include, broiled ham, skinless poultry, prawns, mozzarella cheese, peanut butter, eggs and some vegatables, such as lentils, celery and mushrooms. The Glycaemic Index Diet The gi index nutrition system is linked to the glycaemic index, a chart showing food types and a score illustrating the speed that the glucose in the food gets transformed to glucose in your system. The believe is that slow acting foods (ie those food types with a low Gi score), keep you feeling full longer and help you to cut down on food without feeling you are always hungry. It is also beneficial for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI types of food are helpful in minimizing rises in glucose amount. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a diet first suggested by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet isn’t distinctly a weight loss diet, nevertheless many 'zone dieters' believe that they actually reduce body weight by following it. The scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you gain control of the levels of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which puts one's body in a balanced state which is much, much more wholesome than other diets, which is known as the zone. Sears alleges that if you get into this 'zone', your body is working at its best and, because of this, does not convert energy to unsightly fat. The main method of the zone system is to control the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to make sure your diet has increased levels of Omega 3 and omega 6. |
