Ingredients

4 cornish game hens
4 tangerines, peeled, seeded, & chopp, ed
1 cup fresh squeezed orange juice
1/4 cup zinfandel wine
1 tsp or salt to taste
4 tbsp butter
1/4 cup minced onion
1/4 cup mushrooms chopped
4 tbsp pecans chopped
1 tsp soy sauce
1 clove garlic minced
1 tbsp * honey


Directions

*NOTE: optional Rinse hens and pat dry. Mix wine, soy sauce, salt, honey &
orange juice together. Rub 1 Tblpsn butter inside each hen. Sprinkle the
cavity with salt. Mix the onion, garlic, pecans, mushrooms, & tangerines
together. Stuff each hen with this mixture. Heat the liquid mixture until
it begins to boil. Turn off & let cool for 5 minutes. Pour 2 Tblspns of
this into each hen. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F then bake hens for 45
minutes. Be sure to baste every 10 minutes with the liquid mixture. Test
birds...if not done....cook until done. **NOTE** I have used this same
thing on chickens too as well Guinea hens. All came out well as did the
quail I used it with. Origin: Don Houston's kitchen...circa 1970-something

NANCY O'BRION NOTES: I included this because IT gave me good practice to
work a round a ricepe to make it work for ME and MINE!(very big smile) What
I figure the food exchange by hotkey it (y)ield and then say yes the next
question( just be sure that you write or remember what the orginally
serving was in this case it was 4 serving) I would make this about 1 meat
exchange(depending on what I use of poulty) and 1 fruit (depanding how big
tangerine because of the orange juice) and 1 fat exchange. Make it work!!!!
For it it will not be the same old thing!

Servings: 4

The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a diet started by Dr. arthur agatston which stresses the consumption of "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats"
Agatston developed his system as an aid to patients with heart conditions, as a consequence of his detailed study of scientific studies on other weight loss studies.
Approved foods include, veal cutlets, turkey bacon, oysters, parmesan cheese, peanut butter, nonfat yoghurt and some vegatables, such as black beans, celery and sprouts.


Superfoods containing carotenes
(includes cilantro, kale and tomato ketchup)
These healthy superfoods contain alpha-carotene and beta-carotene believed by many to help in minimizing the risk of cancer, particularly cancers of the stomach and lesophagus. A good number also have a low calorie count, so you should add them to your weight loss regime.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
