Orzo & Portabello Mushrooms 1
2 Portabello mushrooms
1 cup (before cooking) orzo
4 oz Sundried tomatoes
4 Cloves minced garlic (or to
Taste)
2 tbsp Capers (or to taste, this
Recipe is pretty loose it
Is
All to taste, really)
1/2 tsp Each of thyme, marjoram, and
Oregano
1 cup White wine
each Salt and crushed red pepper
To taste


you can make this in under 30 minutes if you do it all at once. so
put the water on to boil for the orzo, and put the sundried tomatoes
in a bowl with about a cup of water to reconstitute (rinse them off
first as you will use the soaking water later). wash the portabellos
and cut off the stems. put caps in a dish and sprinkle with the three
herbs, then pour the cup of wine over them to marinate. coarsely chop
the mushroom stems, mince the garlic. in a nonstick pan, sautee the
garlic and mushroom stems in a little tomato water or wine. drain
tomatoes, reserving the liquid, and chop coarsely (it's okay if they
are not fully softened at this point) and sautee. the water should be
boiling now so put the orzo on to cook. scoot the
tomato/garlic/chopped mushroom mixture to the edges of the pan and
place mushroom caps in the middle. pour the tomato water over them,
cover, and simmer until the mushrooms are finished, about 12 minutes
(same time as it takes the orzo to cook--hey!). remove the mushroom
caps to a plate (to two plates I mean) and pour the leftover
marinating wine into the pan, and add capers. cook and stir until
reduced. drain orzo and toss with the mixture, and serve with the
mushroom caps. yum! (I was bad and garnished this with toasted pine
nuts and it was great, but I am eating nutless leftovers now and it
is still really good). sorry my recipes are always so rambling.

Advice on losing weight

If you enjoy your food, but need to regain your youthful figure and make improvements in your overall vitality, without doubt you really should commence a thoughtfully designed wholesome weight loss program. At best, this must take in 5 standard portions of fruit & vegetables each day and contain the correct mix of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.

When deciding on a dietary regime, it is important to make sure you decrease consumption of salt, fat and refined carbohydrate.

When buying food, dieters far too often concentrate on supermarket and brand name food products claiming to be 'low fat'. This is usually incorrect, since a food item may be reduced in fat, but still high in calories.

Drink plenty of water. Your body needs water , it is indispensable for our general good health and is blessed with calories and fat. It also has the benefit that it fills a dieter's stomach and helps reduce sensations of hunger. The recommended portions researchers claim that we should aim to drink at the minimum 6 tumblers of water a day.

Rather than thinking about those food types you need to leave out of your diet, look at the good foods which you are able to bring into your daily routine. If you can bring in the recommended portions nutritious grains, fruit and vegetables into your daily routine, you'll find that you feel more full and have a far lower chance of giving in to those detrimental midday chocolates.
