Does anybody have any quick, easy, healthy and tasty recipes conducive to weight loss and healthy living?
Mykl asked:
I grew up cooking like a classic midwesterner and most of the recipes I know are fattening. At almost 40 now, it is catching up with me and I need advice on recipes, food ideas and/or some websites that you have tried/tested some recipes. I like all kinds of foods, just don’t know how to make the healthy ones. I usually cook for a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children so kid friendly is a bonus!). I also would like to be able to pass down more healthy cooking/eating habits to my children so that none of us ends up like my grand parents and aunts uncles (VERY obese). We have already dramatically cut back on the sodas and junk food, only have it on rare special occasions and don’t keep that stuff in the house. Thank you for your help!

Grilled chicken with green vegetables. Its all about balanced meals, if you serve meals that include a protein and green veg with a little fat, olive oil, you have a well balanced meal. Greens will make you lean!
