vegetable stew

July 14th, 2009

You possibly will not accept that you could lose weight while on a diet plan which includes vegetable stew but it is obtainable. It is pivotal to not eat vegetable stew or other high calorie vegetables every day but in moderation.

As an example, I allow myself rich food one meal per week. I eat a calorie controlled diet for most of the week, say 1500 to 1600 calories a day, and then one day, I eat whatever I want – without going crazy of course.

I have been eating this way for the last 2 weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise routine or taken any vitamins or diet drinks. I have just been careful of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I want one day a week.

I also find it helps to have a little support when trying to lose weight and for that I joined the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to help you monitor your progress and attain your goals.

Vegetable Stew

1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup rice, raw
2 yams
Several fresh tomatoes (or large can)
1 garlic clove
Salt and pepper, to taste
Tabasco? sauce, to taste

Fry onion, garlic and white stems of chard until barely limp. Add chopped greens and fry a bit.

Either peel the yams or scrub them well with a vegetable brush, then slice them into thick slices. Add garbanzos, raisins, yams, tomatoes, salt and pepper. Cook a couple of minutes.

Make a well in the center of the mixture in the pot. Put the rice in the well and pat it down until it’s wet. Cover and cook until rice is done, about 25 minutes. Add Tabasco? sauce to taste.
