Ingredients
1 1/2 cup unbleached white flour
1 cup whole-wheat flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 tbsp canola oil
1 cup evaporated skim milk
1 tsp lemon extract
2 tsp lemon peel
1 cup finely-diced plums
Nonstick cooking spray, as needed
2 plums, seeds removed, and
cut into thin slices
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine the flours and
baking powder. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the eggs, sugar, applesauce, oil, milk, extract,
and lemon peel. Mix well. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the large
bowl and mix well. Fold in the plums.
Pour the batter into a loaf pan that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking
spray. Lay the plum slices on top. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until a
toothpick comes out clean. If necessary, cover the top loosely with foil
so the plum slices do not overbake. Remove cake from oven and let cool for
10 minutes in the pan. Remove cake from pan and let cool completely.

Weight loss dietsThe Atkins’ Diet Although it originated back in the 1960s, the famous atkins diet is still one of the most popular diets today. Although not accepted by all scientists, it claims to allow fat reduction but still allows you to eat foods that are normally considered bad for diets, for example fatty meat and eggs. On the atkins diet you eat protein and fat, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. It is often referred to as a low carb/high protein, nutrition and weightloss 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. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a consequence, olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The logic behind the famous atkins diet is that even though our bodies use both fats and carbs to change into glucose, it is the carbohydrates which are burned first. If we eat less carbs, we will consume our fat and we will reduce weight. Although tempting, the atkins diet is controversial, not all researchers agree and some even hold that it can be bad for your health. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition and weightloss system initially created by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet isn’t expressly a fat reduction diet, however many followers believe that they seem to lose weight when following it. The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if one can manage to limit the secretion of two key hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which, in turn puts one's body in a state of balance that is much, much more healthful than other diets, which, not surprisingly, is known as 'the zone'. Sears believes that when your body is in this 'zone' it is working at its most efficient and, because of this, does not need to build up stores of fat. The most important method of the zone system is to keep tight control over the ratio of carbs to proteins, and to take large amounts of Omega 3 and omega 6. |
