Thanksgiving & Christmas is Coming – Lose Weight The Tasty Way

Hello Everyone!

Yes, Thanksgiving & Christmas is almost here and we all want to lose a few pounds to get into our favorite bathing suit or perhaps surprise ourselves with one that will be the envy of every lady around us.

But the first step is finding the right plan to lose weight safely and not starve ourselves.  The second step is finding dishes and yes, desserts that don’t taste like you are on a diet.

That’s where the book that my daughter, Helen Radics and I created together to help everyone lose weight and also live a healthier lifestyle.  Remember, losing weight never tasted so good!

Our book is called Don’t Bitch, Get Skinny! which became a best seller during its 1st week of publication.  For a limited time only it is also available with the title, Tasty Weight Loss!  as we were playig around with the titles and after an online vote our customers decided that the original title, Don’t Bitch, Get Skinny! would be more fitting and fun.

Please remember that before you start any diet you should ask your doctor if it is right for you.

It’s best to be safe

You are probably asking what sets this book apart from the countless other books on the market.  My answer is that this is not only a diet book to lose weight quickly and safely, but a tool to lead you to a better lifestyle without robbing you of your favorite dishes.  It also gives you tricks that could make cooking fun again.

One thing we must keep in mind.  Just like any normal day, we will have cravings from time to time. However the choice is ours.  Should I reach for that delectable cupcake or a piece of fruit.  Yes, I know, when we crave cake we don’t want fruit.  But this book gives you more choices.

How about a luscious cup of ice cream?  That sounds much better doesn’t it?

That’s exactly how this book works, you will have choice and options.  It doesn’t leave you hungry and craving food or dessert.

Exercising is another part of every diet.  However in our book we tell you that it could be as simple as walking.   Of course walking doesn’t need to bee exercise walking either.  It could be as simple as walking to the store or even when you drive to the store you cold park a bit farther from the entrance in order to fit in a little walking.

LECSO – Hungarian Ratatouille

Hello Everyone!

Today’s recipe is an old-time-favorite in Hungary.  There are few ways to make this mouth-watering dish and I will share with you the most popular and original way to re-create it.

I know I said this many times, but you will fall in love with the rustic elegance of this traditional Hungarian dish.

INGREDIENTS

• 4-5 Hungarian white peppers or colored bell peppers (red, yellow, orange, green) stems and seeds removed; sliced
• 1 large onion, peeled, sliced
• 3 large or 4 medium sized tomatoes, sliced
• 1 long or 2 smaller link of Hungarian sausage (or any red smoked sausage with red paprika, such as chorizo) sliced
• 1 tbsp. of olive oil
• 3 eggs, whisked together lightly with a fork

TIP

Please remember when you add sausage to Hungarian Lecso, you don’t add any salt because the salt content of the sausage is enough for the entire dish.

Place olive oil into a large skillet; add sausage and sauté for 2-3 minutes while stirring once.  Add everything, EXCEPT  the eggs.  The eggs are put aside after you cracked and whisked them together with a pinch of salt. 

Cook dish on medium high heat for about 25-30 minutes or until peppers are soft and the liquid is almost gone.  If you have too much liquid, please cook until it’s reduced to almost none.  Add eggs and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes while stirring continuously.

Remove and serve with crusty bread.

TIP

Vegetarians could use veggie sausages or leave out the sausage altogether.

SOME FACTS

Perhaps one of the most popular dishes of Hungary is Lecso (pronounced: Lecho) or Hungarian Ratatouille with Hungarian smoked sausages, that breath life to this unique and original dish.The interesting fact about Lecso is that accept for the sausages, its ingredients are the bases for Hungarian Goulash, Hungarian Goulash Soup, Potato Paprikash, Chicken Paprikash, Hungarian Fish Soup and many more mouth-watering recipes from the goulash family. All painted bright red by Hungary’s National Spice the Hungarian Red Paprika.

TIP

I always like to prepare everything before I start cooking. It saves time during the busy dinner hour. Slice sausages, peppers, onion, tomatoes and chilli peppers. If you can’t find Hungarian smoked sausages, you may use kind of smoked sausages.

Summer Cabbage Stir Fry – Mouth-Watering Weight Loss Recipe

After a little hiatus I’m back again.  It’s been a busy summer of book signings and a well deserved vacation (so I think 🙂 ) , but I’m here again to share with you recipes and tips that you all have been asking for.

This easy, yet mouth-watering recipe is not my invention.  I’m not ashamed to state that as we can all learn during our travels and this is what happened.  After a few days in Cuba with my daughter Helen we ended up finding this stir fry in one of the restaurants and a new favorite was born.  This cabbage stir fry is suitable for vegetarians as well, simply leave out the meat or add seafood as they sometimes did.

You may use sausages, chicken breast, shrimp, crab, ham or tofu.  However sometimes we just add the spices and no protein and it still tastes fantastic.  Cabbage also has great health benefits and assist in losing weight which is a bonus for anyone.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF CABBAGE

• It has only 33 calories in a cup of cooked cabbage and high in fiber.
• It is full of vitamin K and anthocyanins that help with mental function and concentration; it prevents nerve damage, improving your defense against Alzheimer’s disease, dementia. Red cabbage has the highest amount of these power nutrients.
• Cabbage helps dry up oily and acne skin. Internally sulfur is essential for keratin, a protein substance necessary for healthy hair, nails, and skin
• Helps detoxify the body.
  The high content of vitamin C and sulfur in cabbage removes toxins, (free radicals and uric acid). These are the main causes of arthritis, skin diseases, rheumatism and gout
• Cancer prevention. They stimulate enzyme activity and inhibit the growth of cancer tumors. A study on women showed a reduction in breast cancer when vegetables like cabbage were added to their diet.
• Prevents high blood pressure.  The high potassium content helps by opening up blood vessels, easing the flow of blood
• Hangovers from heavy drinking were reduced by using cabbage, since Roman times
• Anti-inflammatory and Blood Sugar Regulator. The natural red pigments of red cabbage is said to lower blood sugar levels and boost insulin production. Of course it has no white sugars and very few simple sugars. Betalains have powerful anti-inflammatory properties just like beets.

After my Cabbage Soup recipe, many of you wrote to express their surprise on how flavorful and effortless that recipe was.  You were also surprise to realize that although you don’t like cabbage (a few of you 🙂 ) you actually enjoyed the dish and lost a lot of weight without being hungry.

Believe me you will also fall in love with this easy stir fry recipe and your family will be impatiently waiting for the next time when you make it.

INGREDIENTS for 4

• 1 large green cabbage, shredded (or sliced)
• 1 large onion, sliced (optional, you may leave it out)
• 1 large carrot, shredded
• 1 tbsp of Mrs. Dash (any kind, I used Chipotle Mrs. Dash)
• 1/4 tsp. ground black pepper (you may also use white)
• 1/4 tsp. oregano (dry or fresh)
• 2 tbsp olive oil (you may add a little more if needed, remember olive oil is good fat)
• 1/2 chili pepper sliced (optional; you may use sweet chili pepper if you don’t like spicy or use bell pepper)
• 1 1/2 tsp. salt

OPTIONAL PROTEIN (only one, not ALL)

• 1 box of firm tofu, cut into cubes OR
• 1 slice of low salt country ham, cut into cubes OR
• 2 links of grilling sausages, sliced (try to go for low sodium) OR
• 2 skinless chicken breasts, cubed

COOKING INSTRUCTION FOR PROTEIN

TOFU

• Place 1 tbsp olive oil into a skillet, add the cubed firm tofu and 1 tsp Mrs. Dash (or any of your favorite spices).  Saute tofu (while turning from time to time) until golden. Remove from pan and put aside.

HAM

• Place 1 tbsp olive oil into a skillet, add cubed ham and saute for about 5 minutes while stirring; put aside

SAUSAGE

• Do not use any oil.  Place sliced sausages into a skillet, saute for about 2-3 minutes while stirring from time to time and cabbage.

CHICKEN BREAST

• Place 1 tbsp of olive oil into a skillet; add cubed skinless chicken breast and 1 tsp of Mrs. Dash.  Saute until meat turns golden white (stir from time to time).  Put aside. you may grill chicken breast in one piece and slice after

RECIPE

Place oil into a large skillet and add sausages (if you are using it as the protein part of the dish), shredded cabbage, carrots and spices, including salt.  Saute on medium low heat for about 10 minutes while stirring.  Add onion and saute for another 10 minutes.  If desired, add the already sauteed protein and serve while hot.   If you find that your cabbage is not crispy enough, as it should be (after all it’s a stir fry), then reduce the cooking time with a few minutes.

I hope you enjoyed this simply, yet tasty recipe.  You may add your favorite veggies to the dish, however the main ingredient should always be the cabbage.

Remember that you don’t need to use sausage, you may also use chicken breast, ham, tofu or any of your favorite protein.
