Red Band Society Episode 3 - Liar, Liar Pants on Fire
Charlie: "One thing I've noticed about being in a hospital -- People lie a lot, they lie to make you feel better, they lie to make themselves better…Lies are just one way of dealing."
This low fat rotisserie chicken is one of my favorite recipes. Not only are whole organic chickens more affordable than other organic meats, this recipe is quick and you can even get a quick chicken broth out of it too! The trick is using the Nuwave oven.
One of the hardest diet regimens that I've been on is the ketogenic diet. This involves cutting down carbohydrates to about 20g carbs a day, and mainly eating protein and fats.
Not only was it difficult with the low blood sugar, but on top of that, I needed to cook a LOT of protein throughout the day! That was when we got a Nuwave oven to help cook all the meat.
I was intrigued by "Red Band Society", a drama airing on Fox every Wednesday night at 9pm. I noticed one of the characters was a bald teenager with crutches. "Ah, he must have osteosarcoma", I thought. And I was right!
Whenever we go to a salad bar, we always look for marinated mushrooms to add to our salad. The marinated mushrooms add quite a bit of weight and price to our salad! This is until I realized I could make it myself at a fraction of the cost.
Now, I make a batch of these every week! These marinated mushrooms are great on salads, or as a side dish to any meal!
In looking for healthy grains that are low glycemic, I found freekeh. It's an ancient grain that is readily available at Costco (Village Harvest Organic Freekeh).
An added benefit of this dish is that I have fun saying "I'm eating freeky" :-)
