1 cup 2% milk
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
5 tbsp unflavored gelatin (5 pkg)
1 cup water
1/2 cup sweetener equiv. to sugar**
1 tsp artificial brandy extract
Directions
Preparation 10 min, standing time 4 hours.
In small saucepan, combine milk and cocoa. Whisk until there are no
lumps of cocoa. Cook over medium heat, stirring for about 5 min or
until thickened. (This cooks out the raw cocoa taste.)
In another small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over water; let stand for
5 min to soften.
Heat over low heat, stirring, until gelatin dissolves. Stir into cocoa
mixture.
Stir in sweetener (artificial sweetener like SugarTwin equivalent to
1/2 cup sugar) and brandy extract. Remove from heat.
Pour into 8 inch square baking dish. Let stand at room temperature 4
hours or until firm.
To remove from pan, cut around edges with a sharp knife. Place dish in
shallow pan of hot water for about 30 seconds just to slightly soften

cutting surface.
With sharp knife, cut evenly in 10 one way and 10 the other way.

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index weight loss program is based around the gi index, a list of food types and a score representing the rapidity with which the energy in the food gets converted to glucose in your system. The theory is that slow release foods (ie those foods with a low Glycaemic score), keep you satiated for longer and help you to eat fewer food without starving yourself. It is also extremely beneficial for diabetics, as the low GI food types are helpful in reducing rises in glucose secretion. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a weight loss system started by Cardiologist arthur agatston which encourages that dieters should be eating "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston invented his system as an aid to patients with heart conditions, as a result of his analysis of scientific research completed on other nutritional studies. Approved foods include, veal cutlets, turkey breast, oysters, provolone cheese, pistachios, lowfat or nonfat milk and some vegatables, like kidney beans, eggplant and water chestnuts. Carotenoid foods (includes carrots, collard greens and winter squash) These colorful healthy superfoods are rich in the carotenoids thought to help in preventing cancer, particularly cancers of the stomach and lesophagus. Most also help you lose weight, so make sure you add them to your weight loss program. |
