The Recipe Instructions |

Ingredients
WET INGREDIENTS
2 1/4 cup grated & drained zucchini
1/4 cup zucchini water
1/3 cup fruit sweetener
3/4 cup oil
3 eggs
1 tbsp vanilla extract
DRY INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup walnuts
2 1/3 cup unbleached white flour
4 tsp cinnamon
3/4 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray a 9" square pan with
lecithin spray. Toast the walnuts in the oven for 7-10 minutes, stirring
occasionally. Allow the nuts to cool. Then coarsely chop them with a knife
or with the pulsing action in a food processor, and put them aside. Grate
the zucchini using a medium grater. Place the grated zucchini in a sieve
over a bowl and use your hand to press out the extra liquid. This is the
Zucchini water. Measure our 1/4 cup and set aside. Sift the dry ingredients
together. Use an electric mixer on medium high speed to whisk the sweetener
and oil together until thickened. Then add the eggs one at a time, beating
well after each addition before adding the next. Reduce the speed to low
and stir in the vanilla and zucchini water. On the lowest speed, add the
sifted dry ingredients alternately with the grated zucchini and the toasted
walnuts. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Place the pan on the middle
shelf of the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes. A toothpick
inserted in the center of the bread will come out clean when the bread is
done. Cool the bread in its pan on a wire rack, but don't cool it too much,
for Zucchini bread is great served hot from the oven. Store it well wrapped
in plastic at room temperature.

The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a diet created by Florida-based cardiologist arthur agatston which stresses that one should eat "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Dr. agatston invented this diet as an aid to patients with heart conditions, based on his detailed analysis of scientific data on other dietary studies. Good foods include, veal cutlets, chicken breast, oysters, low or fat free cheeses, pistachios, nonfat milk and some vegatables, such as split peas, eggplant and spinach. Foods containing allyl sulfides ( includes pickled shallots, leeks and spring onions) The onion and garlic range of vegetables is high in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe may be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer. Although there is little scientific evidence obtainable, allyl sulfides are also believed to aid in antiinflammatory effect, sterilization and insomnia. Foods containing allyl sulfides are low in calories, so should be included in every diet. |
