Blue-Cheese Pinwheels Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1/4 lb blue cheese (room temp)
1/2 cup minced parsley
4 tbsp buter, softened
6 slice soft white bread
Recipe Preparation
In small bowl, mix blue cheese, 1/4 c minced parsley, and 2 tbsp
butter until well blended.
Trim crusts from bread slices; reserve bread trimmings for making
crumbs another day. With rolling pin, roll bread slices flat. Evenly
spread about 1 rounded tablespoonful cheese mixture on each bread
slice; roll up, jelly-roll fashion.
On waxed paper, place remaining 1/4 cup minced parsley. Spread
outside of cheese rolls with remaining butter; coat lightly with
parsley. Wrap rolls tightly in plastic wrap; refigerate at least 30
minutes for easier slicing.
To serve, slice each parsley-coated cheese roll crosswise into six
slices. Place slices, cut-side up, on platter. Makes 3 dozen hors
d'oeuvres.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easyWhen deciding on a weight loss program, it is essential to try to restrict your intake of salt, fat and refined carbohydrate.
Some lower carb diet tips:
* Make reduced carb breadcrumbs for deep fried or oven baked foods. Although you may be able to buy low carb breadcrumbs, you may make them yourself by using low carb bread. All you have to do is simply toast the low carb bread in a pre-heated oven on a sheet of cookie paper. Once it is quite hard and crispy, process it in your food mill. To store, keep in an airtight container.
* Understand the food labels Don't trust sales blurb that claims to be 'low carb' - check the nutritional information on the back of the can or package. Many are only marginally lower and in some cases still more than a competitors usual brand. In addition, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' doesn't always mean 'low carb' - often the carbs are identically the same.
Foods containing carotenes
(includes paprika, collard greens and tomato puree)
These orange and green natural foods are rich in carotenes believed by nutritionalists play a key role in minimizing the risk of cancer, particularly cancers of the stomach and lesophagus. A good number also have a low calorie count, so should be included in every weight loss program.
