1 tbsp Dried rosemary leaves
2 tsp Salt
1/2 tbsp Yeast
3 tbsp Oil, olive
1 cup Water, hot
Oil, olive


Mix 1 1/2 cups of the flour, the rosemary, salt, and yeast in a large
bowl thoroughly. Add 3 tablespoons oil and the hot water. Beat on low
speed 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on medium speed 1
minute, scraping bowl frequently. Stir in enough remaining flour to
make dough easy to handle. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface.
Knead 5 to 8 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place in greased
bowl; turn greased side up. Cover and let rise in warm place about 1
hour or until double. (Dough is ready if indentation remains when
touched.) Punch down dough. Brush 12-inch pizza pan or large cookie
sheet with oil. Press dough in pizza pan or flatten into 12" circle
on cookie sheet. Make depressions, with fingers about 2 inches apart,
into dough. Brush with oil; sprinkle with pepper. Let rise uncovered
in warm place
30 minutes.

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden
brown. Brush with additional oil. Serve warm.

*If using quick-acting yeast, omit first rise. After kneading, cover
dough and let rest 10 minutes. Press dough in pan and continue as
directed.

High altitude directions (3500 to 6500 feet): Rising times may be
slightly shorter.

Diet tips

If you wish to regain your youthful figure and boost your overall healthfulness, among other things you need to decide on a specially calculated sensible diet. If possible, this should include five standard portions of pulses and vegetables on a daily basis and also include the right mix of fats, carbohydrates and proteins.

In deciding on a daily routine, you have to attempt to decrease ingestion of fat, refined carbohydrates and salt.

When people first start dieting, they usually concentrate on chain store and brand name food items professing to be 'low fat'. To do this is often wrong, seeing as how a food product might just be significantly reduced in fats, but nevertheless contain excess calories.

Recognise the difference between hunger and thirst. Your body requires plain water , it is important for our survival and is empty of calories and fat. It is also good in that it fills your empty stomach and reduces feelings of hunger. A few experts profess it is best to drink as much as six glasses of water each day of the week.

As an alternative to concentrating on those food types you really should eliminate from your dietary regime, look at the good foods that you should bring into your weight loss program. If you can inject the recommended amount healthy fruit/vegetables into your meal plan, you will be amazed to find that you feel full and have a much lower risk of giving in to those unhealthy afternoon sweets and chocolates.
