peppers Alligators... Discard head, feet and tail. Wash and cut into
individual portions. (so how much do 3 adult alligators weigh anyway?)
Borrow, beg or steal huge cooking pot. Use medium heat for oil and
garlic. Add alligator portions, turning often. Add tomatoes, bring to
boil, simmer, add salt, pepper, red pepper, oregano, bay leaves, and
parsley. Cover and simmer for 2 1/2 hours. Last 30 minutes add
onions, peppers, zucchini. Last 5 min. add sliced olives. Serve with
salad topped with favorite Italian dressing and crisp bread. "New
Orleans Cooks The Italian Way" Locovozzi & Mollicone (note: this is a
real recipe and there is a whole Italian area of New Orleans which as
you can see is spicy like cajun, but truely Italian. I have though of
ways to make this with some other meat, because we just don't have
alligators in Milwaukee! Maybe buffalo?)

Food Tips of the Week
A few tips on healthy eatingIf you enjoy eating, but want to get in shape and improve your overall vitality, then, as most people know, you need to start a thoughtfully prepared well-balanced meal plan. In a perfect world, this needs to contain 5 standard portions of grains, fruit and vegetables daily and embrace the right proportion of food types.
Some lower carb diet pointers:
* Fiber is important: Decreasing the carbs in your diet often results in reduction in fiber also. Look out for reduced carbohydrate recipes that are fiber-rich to restore the balance.
* Use low carb chocolate for cookies and muffins. Once you have converted your favorite chocolate chip cookie or muffins recipe using soya flour, you really shouldn't mix in those high carbohydrate 'real' chocolate. Chop up a low carb chocolate bar into tiny pieces and use that as an alternative.
Superfoods containing carotenes
(includes carrots, collard greens and tomato puree)
These orange and green healthy plants contain alpha-carotene and beta-carotene thought to help in helping stop cancer, spefically cancer of the esophagus. A good number are low in calories, so should be included in every weight loss regime.
