Spaghetti With Tofu
2 1/2 cup Tofu, crumbled
8 cup , water; boiling
2 tbsp Olive oil
1 large Onion, chopped
5 Garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp Thyme
1 tsp Basil
1/2 tsp Oregano
1/4 tsp Celery seed
1/8 tsp Cloves, ground
2 cup Mushrooms, sliced
4 tbsp Tamari
8 oz Whole wheat spaghetti
1/4 cup Parsley, minced
1/2 cup Dry red wine


Drop the tofu into a large kettle of boiling water.
Bring the water back to a boil and cook for 1 minute.

Line a colander with a clean dishtowel and drain the tofu in the
colander. Rinse the tofu under cold water to cool it off for easier
handling. Bring the edges of the towel together, twist the towel, and
press the excess water out of the tofu. Continue pressing the tofu
until it has a firm ground-beef-like texture, then set it aside.

Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the onion, garlic, thyme, basil,
oregano, celery seed and cloves.
Saute over low heat until the onion is almost tender.
Add the mushrooms and cook until they are done.

Add the pressed tofu to the sauteed mixture. Stir in the tamari and
mix well. Set the skillet aside while you prepare the spaghetti.

Boil a large kettle of water and cook the spaghetti until it is
tender. Drain the cooked spaghetti and add it to the skillet with the
tofu mixture. Add the wine and the parsley; mix well.

Serve with a big green salad.

Dieting made easy

If you enjoy your food, but need to become thinner and boost your general shape, then, as most people know, you really should undertake a specially prepared healthy meal plan. If possible, this must take in 5 standard portions of fruit and vegetables daily and include the optimum fusion of carbohydrate, fat, and protein.

When deciding on a dietary regime, you have to also attempt to reduce consumption of salt, fats and refined carbohydrates.

At the start of a diet, people frequently concentrate on supermarket and branded foods sold as 'low fat'. To do this is far too often an error, since an item might just be significantly reduced in fat, but whilst still remaining far too high in carbohydrates and calories.

Learn to recognise the difference between hunger and thirst. Your body requires water , it is vital for our body's health and possesses zero fat and calories. It also has the benefit that it fills a dieter's belly and helps decrease sensations of emptiness. A few researchers assert that we should try to drink as much as 6 glasses of water a day.

Instead of focusing on those junk foods you ought to leave out of your weight loss program, focus on the recommended foods that you can add to your daily routine. If you bring in some nutritious grains, fruit and vegetables into your weight loss program, you will be delighted to find that you feel more full and have a much lower risk of being tempted by those detrimental mid-day snacks.
