Ingredients
=== STICKY RICE CAKES ===
1 small onion - (4 oz), finely chopped
2 cup fat-free low-sodium canned chicken
1 cup short-grain brown rice
2 scallions, white part and 1" green, finely minced
2 tbsp minced fresh parsley
1 large egg white
2 tbsp unseasoned dry bread crumbs
Refrigerated butter-flavored cookin, as needed
=== VENISON AND SPINACH ===
6 venison loin chops, 1" thick, (abt 5 oz ea)
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary
3 juniper berries, (optional)
Salt, (optional), to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup water
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 pinch ground nutmeg
1 1/2 lb fresh spinach, washed, stemmed,
and dried
Directions
In a medium saucepan, cook onion and broth over medium heat for 5 minutes.
Stir in brown rice, reduce heat to simmer, cover, and cook for 25 to 30
minutes, until the liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Remove from heat
and stir in scallions, parsley, egg white, and bread crumbs. Spread the
mixture in a shallow dish, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 2
to 3 hours, until cold.
Shape the cold rice mixture into 6 round patties (will look something like
the commercial rice cakes that we all know and love!). Place the rice
cakes on waxed paper and chill until ready to cook.
Meanwhile, trim off any fat from the chops. Place in a self-closing
plastic bag. Combine the vinegar, Dijon, rosemary, juniper berries, salt
(if using) and freshly ground pepper to taste. Pour the mixture into the
bag. Close the bag to seal and turn several times to coat the chops with
the vinegar mixture. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes, turning
the bag several times.
Prepare a grill or preheat the broiler.
Meanwhile in a flat-bottom skillet, heat the water, lemon juice, and
nutmeg. Add the spinach and toss lightly until it is wilted. Drain into a
colander. Return the drained spinach to the skillet, cover, and keep
warm.
Grill venison chops over high heat for 7 minutes per side for medium-rare.
While chops are grilling, spray a nonstick skillet with butter-flavored
cooking spray. Add rice cakes and brown over medium-high heat for 2
minutes on each side, until golden brown, carefully turning them once.
Arrange the spinach towards one end of a large heated serving platter.
Trop with the grilled venison chops and place browned rice cakes next to
the spinach and chops. Serve at once.

Diet Grilled Venison Chop With Spinach And Sticky Rice Cakes Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Weight loss systemsThe Atkins’ Diet Although it originated back in the 1960s, the atkins diet is still one of the most popular diets today. Having many well known film stars amongst its supporters, it enables weight loss whilst allowing you to eat many of the foods you love, for example lamb and cheeses. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet it is considered good to eat fat and protein, it is carbohydrates that need to be avoided. It is often referred to as a low carbohydrate/high protein, nutrition and weight loss system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. With the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet system invented by Miami-based cardiologist arthur agatston which emphasizes the consumption of "good carbs" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Dr. agatston invented his system for his cardiac patients, based on his detailed study of scientific data on other weight loss regimes. Approved foods include, canadian bacon, skinless poultry, fish, ricotta cheese, peanut butter, nonfat milk and some vegatables, like kidney beans, eggplant and spinach. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition and weightloss system initially devised by Barry Sears in a series of books and publications. The Zone diet isn’t particularly a weight loss diet, although many zone diet fans find that they really lose body weight by following it. The 'science' behind the Zone Diet is that if you gain control of the secretion of insulin and glucogen (two hormones produced naturally by your body), then your body releases eicosanoids (anti-inflamatory chemicals) which, as a consequence puts the body in a balanced state which is far more healthful than normal, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone". Sears states that a body that is in 'the zone' is working at its most efficient and, because of this, does not build up layers of fat. The key technique of the zone diet is to keep tight control over the precise ratio of carbs to proteins, and to take plenty of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. |
