(They 'stuff' the Brie with 1/4 cup sliced, toasted almonds and
1/4 cup chopped parsley instead of Boursin)
* Boursin cheese is a spreadable garlic and herb cheese. Boursin
Poivre contains a lot of black pepper for those who like pepper.
Boursin is available in many grocery stores but can almost certainly
be found in higher quality produce and specialty stores. If Boursin
or Boursin Poivre cannot be found, Alouette can be used as a
substitute although it is not as high quality as Boursin, in my
opinion.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting tipsIn deciding on a meal plan, it is essential to also make sure you cut down your ingestion of refined carbohydrate, fat and salt.
Some reduced carb diet guidlines:
* Use splenda as a substitute for sugar. Many recipes that require sugar can be changed to make use of a sugar replacement instead. It is not exactly the same so you will have to do a bit of trial and error and it might not work for everything, but it gives very good results for the most part.
* Use soy flour or soy baking mix. When you require flour for baked goods, repalce it with soy flour or a baking mix such as Atkins soya baking mix. In many cases, you can convert your best loved recipes that use normal wheat flour to use these.
Carotenoid foods
(includes parsley, rose hip puree and sweet potatoes)
These orange and green foods are rich in alpha-carotene and beta-carotene thought by doctors to play a role in helping stop cancer, particularly cancers of the stomach and lesophagus. Most are low in calories, so should be included in every weight loss regime.
