Hot Baba Ghanoush With Pasta Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 large eggplant
1/2 cup lowfat yogurt
2 tbsp tahini
1/4 cup dry sherry
1/4 cup lemon juice
3 cloves garlic -- minced
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp to 1/4 t cayenne -- to taste
1/4 cup fresh parsley -- for
1 garnish
1 lb dry pasta -- * see note
Recipe Preparation
* spirals or wide ribbons are recommended.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut the eggplant in half, and place cut
side down on lightly oiled baking sheet. Pierce with fork several
times, then bake for 40 minutes, until really soft and collapsing.
When it has cooled, scoop out the insides and puree everything except
the parsley and pasta in a food processor or blender. Let sit awhile
to flavors can blend.
Bring several quarts of water to a boil and cook pasta al dente. While
pasta is cooking, gently heat the sauce. Drain the pasta and mix with
the sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley (you can also put parmesan on
this, it sounds really weird but is good - it's also good without
it!).

Food Tips of the Week
Diet hints and tipsIn deciding on a diet, it is essential to attempt to lower your consumption of fat, salt and refined carbohydrates.
Some low carb diet guidlines:
* Use soya flour or baking mix. When you have to use flour for baked goods, substitute soy flour or a baking mix such as Atkins soy baking mix. Most of the time, you may convert your most popular recipes that use standard wheat flour to use these alternatives.
* It is possible to make wonderful smoothies by using low carbohydrate yogurt. I know, you can't really describe it as cooking, but if you really want smoothies you can make perfectly acceptable alternatives by using low carbohydrate yogurt and fruit. Clearly, you will need to ensure you only make use of fruit that is low in carbs and use the whole fruit as you need the fiber.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes pickled shallots, onions and welsh onion)
The onion family is rich in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Even though there is very little scientific evidence obtainable, allyl sulphides are also thought to help with antiinflammatory effect, high blood pressure and diabetes.
Foods containing allyl sulfides are also low in calories, so should be a part of every diet system.
