Keep Your Diet With These Foods
Have you stuck to your diet already? If you are a little off and on so far, I found a few foods that can kick start your diet or keep you on the right track. I don’t know if I agree with the term “skinny foods,” but there are some foods out there than can keep you fit and shedding pounds.
My favorite one is the Fiery Chicken Salad, I like anything g hot and spicy. Little did I know that adding a dash of hot sauce or hot spices slows down your eating, so now that I know the benefits of drowning my food in hot sauce I will continue to do it.
Read about the foods here. What are your foods that keep you on track or “skinny foods?”
Duck For Dinner
Okay, let’s talk about a menu item that seems to be showing up in more and more places. When I was 4 years old, my dad suggested that I try escargot. That was all the encouragement I needed a trusting child. All my dad wanted was a funny story to tell his friends but I loved it…and I still do. Duck was another one of his adventures but the joke was more on him. My family loves duck! If my sister sees it on the menu, that is all she will order. Duck is so very yummy and if you haven’t tried it, you should.

The cake is flourless, which makes it ideal for celiac sufferers.
