Biscotti With Almonds Orange Chocolate
8 oz Unsalted butter, 2 sticks
1 1/2 cup Sugar
3 tbsp Orange rind, finely
Grated
2 tbsp Vanilla extract, pure
Vanilla
6 cup All-purpose flour
1 tbsp Baking powder
1 tsp Salt
6 Eggs, beaten
1/4 cup Amaretto
2 cup Almonds, blanched, toasted
Sliced
2 cup Chocolate chips, or
Pieces


Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In an electric mixing bowl, combine
butter, sugar, orange peel and vanilla; beat until light and creamy.
Sift together the dry ingredients. With the mixer on slow, add dry
ingredients to butter mixture and mix until thoroughly combined.
Slowly add eggs and amaretto. Add almonds and chocolate just until
combined. Remove dough to a floured surface and form into two flat
logs about 4 inches wide and the length of your cookie sheet. Lay
the logs onto buttered sheets and place on lower rack of the oven.
Bake until lightly browned, about 45 minutes. Remove to a rack to
cool. With a serrated knife, cut the loaves into half-inch slices,
placing the cut slices flat oon the cookie sheet. To make crisp,
return them to the lower rack of the oven and cook until golden,
15-20 minutes. Remove the slices to a wire rack to cool then store in
an airtight container. Use a decorative tin for gift giving. NOTE:
If the biscotti lose their crispness, repeat the crisping stage. Jo

Dieting made easy

If you enjoy eating, but want to lose weight and better your general well-being, then, as any doctor will tell you, you should decide on a specially designed balanced meal plan. At best, this must contain five measures of fruit & veg on a daily basis and contain an appropriate proportion of fats, carbs and proteins.

In planning a meal plan, you have to also endeavour to decrease consumption of refined carbohydrate, fats and salt.

Dieters ordinarily direct your attention to retail store and big brand food products labelled 'low fat'. This is often incorrect, since a food may be lowered in fat, but whilst still remaining elavated in calories and carbs.

Learn to recognise the difference between hunger and thirst. Occasionally during a busy day, you have the idea that you want a snack when really you might just want a restorative glass of water or squash. The sensations of being thirsty and hungry are quite similar, albeit one can result in a fat tummy and the alternative leads to no damage.

Rather than dwelling on which unhealthy foods you really should eliminate from your diet, look at the nutritionally sound foods that you might want to bring into your meal plan. If you can introduce a few healthy fruit and vegetables into your dietary regime, you'll discover that you feel more satisfied and have a significantl;y lower chance of being tempted by those unhealthy mid-day biscuits.
