One of my favorite Salads

Panera Bread has one of the best salads that I have ever tasted.  Plus, it is made with a sesame vinaigrette.  It’s pretty simple but it’s very tasty.  I’m not much of a salad person but this one hits the spot.  So, if you are ever at Panera Bread, give it a try. 
Asian Sesame Chicken
All-natural citrus-herb chicken, romaine lettuce, fresh cilantro, sliced almonds, sesame seeds, crispy wonton strips & our reduced-sugar Asian sesame vinaigrette.

Food For Thought (Are you using the right spread?)

It can be very confusing at times when it comes to choosing a buttery spread. Some people like margarine and other like butter. When choosing a spread make sure you use a non-hydrogenated spread. The name brand that I use is Smart Balance. Anything that has hydrogenated in the first five ingredients isn’t very good for you. So, if you want to be healthy and cut some fat, stay away from hydrogenated oils.By: LT Thomas, BS

To fast pace to cook

The world that we live in is very fast-paced. We hardly even have enough time or make enough time to cook for ourselves. This is why fast food is so popular. It’s quick and convenient. But generally, it’s not very healthy. This is why a protein supplement can be a great alternative to fast food restaurants. There are many health benefits to using whey protein — it’s a great way to jump-start a weight loss program, for instance.
