Barley Mushroom Casserole (Vegan) Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 cup Chopped onions
2 cup Sliced mushrooms
2 package Instant broth/season
2 Half a cup Water
Salt and pepper, to taste
5 1/4 oz Barley, 3/4 cup
Recipe Preparation
Add your favorite spice to this casserole, if you wish. Try 1/2
teaspoon of either curry powder, basil, oregano, dill or thyme or
enjoy it as it is with the delicious subtle flavor of mushrooms. In a
medium saucepan over medium heat cook onions & mushrooms till tender
about 10 min adding small amounts of water if necessary to prevent
drying. Add broth mix, water and salt & pepper and bring to a boil.
Stir in barley, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer 50min until
barley is tender and liquid is absorbed. Stir occassionally while
cooking and add more water if necessary. Note: I eliminated the 2T+2t
of reduced calorie margarine to reduce the 5g per serving of fat in
the original recipe.

Food Tips of the Week
Losing weightRecognise the difference between hunger and thirst. At times when going through a hectic day, you imagine you feel hunger but if truth be told you just need a restorative tumbler of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are quite alike, but one can result in weight gain and the alternative is fine.
Some low carb diet pointers:
* Don't miss meals Most reduced carbohydrate recipes are, errmm.., low in carbs. Your body needs energy, and carbs are a rapid acting energy source. A low carb diet requires extreme care in managing your intake of energy, as the energy provided by protein and fat is less efficient.
Foods containing lycopene
(includes apricot, papaya & tomatoes)
The chemical lypcopene is a simple coloring compound and member of the same family of phytochemicals as carotene. Lycopene is the agent responsible for the dark red colour of many foods.
Unlike most other vitamins, lycopene does not become less effective if cooked but is in actuality improved by going through the cooking process.
. Lycoprene's main medical value is that it behaves as an antioxidant and is thought to be of use in the fight to reduce the probabilty of contracting cancer.
This useful phytochemical is the most powerful carotenoid quencher of singlet oxygen, which is correlated with skin aging. It's also thought by many researchers to hamper the progression of atherosclerosis.
