Warm Almond Cake
5 eggs
5 egg whites
3 tbsp butter
1 1/2 cup blanched, whole almonds
1 1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup white flour
2 tbsp granulated sugar


PREPARATION: Bring 5 whole eggs to room temperature or warm eggs in hot
water. Butter and flour two 9-inch cake pans. Melt the 3 tablespoons
butter in a small pan and set aside to cool.

Heat oven to 325ºF. Spread almonds in a shallow baking pan and toast,
stirring once or twice, until browned, about 10 minutes. Cool and chop.

Heat oven to 400ºF. Put confectioners' sugar and almonds into the bowl of
a food processor and grind to a powder. Transfer to the bowl of an
electric mixer, add the 5 whole eggs, and blend well on high speed until
the mixture is light and forms a ribbon when trailed from beaters. Mix in
the cooled melted butter. Fold in the flour. Beat the 5 egg whites with
the granulated sugar until stiff and then fold, 1/3 at a time, into the
batter.

Pour batter into cake pans. Bake cakes in preheated oven until a knife
inserted in the center comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Cakes can be
made a day ahead, or they can be frozen. Reheat cakes in foil before
serving.

SERVING: Cut into wedges and serve warm with Honey Ice Cream.

Dieting made easy

If you want to shed a few pounds and boost your general well-being, then, without doubt, you really should follow a meticulously designed healthy meal plan. In theory, this must contain 5 measures of pulses and vegetables every day and require the optimum fusion of protein, carbs and fat.

When deciding on a weight loss program, the most important step is to make sure you decrease your intake of refined carbohydrate, fat and salt.

Dieters often direct your attention to chain store and branded foods described as 'low-fat'. This is ordinarily incorrect, seeing as how a food product might be very low in fat content, but whilst still being contain excess carbs & calories.

Keep yourself hydrated. At times when going through a hectic day, you presume that you are a little peckish when in fact you might just want a refreshing glass of water or fruit juice. The sensations of needing food and needing a drink are much the same, albeit one of the two ends in a broken diet and the other is healthy.

Rather than paying too much attention to those junk foods that you should ban from your dietary regime, concentrate on the good foods which you can bring into your dietary regime. If you bring in the recommended amount wholesome fruit and vegetables into your diet, you will find that you feel more satisfied and have a far lower probability of falling prey to those damaging mid-morning sweets and chocolate bars.
