Recipe Ingredients
8 slice white bread, crusts removed
1/4 pinch butter, softened
4 slice ham
4 slice thin natural gruyere
2 each eggs, slightly beaten
1 tbsp water
1 dash of salt and freshly
1 grounded pepper
Recipe Preparation
Spred the bread with some of the softened butter, make 4 sandwiches,
each with one slice of ham and one of cheese. Press firmly together.
Beat the eggs and water, salt and pepper and dip the sandwiches into
the egg mixture, coating all sides well. Heat the rest of the butter
in a heavy- bottomed skillet; when it is bubbly but not yet browned,
fry the sandwiches, turning once. Serve immediatly, (if you prefer
although it is not traditionnally done, you may place the
croque-monsieur into a very well-buttered baking pan and bake in a
moderately hot oven-- 350 d.F.-- turning once. It is easier to
prepare a larger number this way and keep them warm till ready to
serve.)
Servings: 4

The argument against low carbohydrate diets
Its extremely popular, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
Although there is considerable evidence that suggests that reduced carbohydrate diets may help reduce weight, some of this strong evidence has caused controversy between nutrition gurus, and their safety record has been challenged
Moreover, it has been suggested that the kidneys may be given too much work to do and that the related change in blood acid levels can result in bone damage, but some of the studies trying to test the theory have struggled to find any evidence of damage to the kidneys or bone damage.
Flavonoid foods
(inlcudes garlic, spinach, adzuki bean & tea)
The nutrients called 'flavonoids' present in these food types are thought by nutritionalists to have properties as anti-carcinogens.
