Low Calorie Recipes

i have a great recipe for you ,i already tasted and loved,its Mixed Courgette & Cherry Tomato Clafoutis With Cheese,hope you like it too:) 1 yellow courgette, sliced 1 green courgette, sliced 100 g cherry tomatoes, halved 2 garlic cloves, crushed 25 g butter (optional) 2 eggs, beaten 3 tablespoons creme fraiche or sour cream 100 ml 1% low-fat milk 25 g self raising flour 50-75 g grated parmesan cheese salt fresh ground black pepper Pre-heat oven to 200C or 400°F. Wash and wipe the courgettes - cut into medium sized slices, about half a centimeter or 1/4". Cut the cherry tomatoes into half - if they are very small, leave them whole. Cut up the butter into small pieces and scatter over the base of the baking dish.(if you are watching your fat content - you can leave the butter out.). Add the crushed garlic & scatter over the top of the butter. Arrange the courgettes & cherry tomatos in an attractive pattern, trying to keep the colours separate! Add the creme fraiche & milk to the beaten eggs & mix well. Sift the self raising flour into the egg mixture & stir in well. Add half of the parmesan cheese, salt & freshly ground black pepper, mix well. Pour over the top of the vegetables, making sure all the spaces are filled in with the custard/batter mix. Scatter the remaining parmesan cheese on top. Cook in a pre-heated oven for between 45 & 60 minutes, or until the clafoutis has risen, is firm to the touch & it is golden brown on top. Serve as a vegetabe accompaniment, for 4 people or with salad & crusty bread as a light lunch, for 2 people. Individual ones would make an attractive starter - adjust the cooking time down by about 10 minutes & serve in individual baking dish with a side salad.

50 lbs. is alot of weight to decide to lose. I would first before starting any diet discuss it with your Doctor to really make sure it is necessary and safe to do and ask for a diet and excersise plan. Rule out any health issues.I would also make sure this is for yourself and NOT becuase the BF thinks it important.

I found that I lost a lot of weight when I became vegan. It might be worth thinking about following a vegan diet for a while to see if it helps. If you want some ideas for recipes I have a vegan recipe website that could help: http://www.recipesforvegan.co.uk I would suggest you eat just fruit and veg and no meat, fish, sugar, and fats for a couple of days a week and that will really help, especially if you combine it with exercise.
