good book!

there's more to it than calories in / calories out unfortunately... While you do need to keep calories in mind there are variety of other things to take in effect, one main one being insulin. at the end of the day insulin is a storage hormone, try to limit your intake of foods that will spike...

yes absolutely to both. i just became vegetarian about 6 months ago. since this i have much more energy and feel 'lighter'. I've noticed a significant increase of performance at the gym. as for health i've read some studies show that people who follow a vegetarian diet generally have lower...

i'll try adding the flour slow. i've checked google already, pretty much all the ww dough recipes call for white flour as well, which is what i was trying to get away from.

As is mentioned above, i dont think anyone expected an organic apple to have more nutritional value than a non organic apple. one is sprayed with poison, one is not.

Ok, fair enough. Really what i'd like to accomplish here is just a 9 - 10" thin crust pizza. probably close to this : http://www.passion-4-pizza.com/image-files/pomodori-2.jpg

High in protein is great, as I'm a vegetarian. What's the difference in bleached / unbleached. is one better for you?

Yeah, i'd try the semolina flour. I'm trying to build the healthiest pizza dough i can. I'm a bit anal about what i eat. I should also add, i'm a complete novice with cooking, so the whole wheat flour may not be my only problem with my rock hard dough hah. :chef:

I'm growing some Mint / Oregano / Basil. What i'm wondering, when it comes time to start using them, how do i trim them from the plant to still promote new growth? do i just want to cut at the stem? or do i just pull the leaves off? New to this.. obviously :) s

I had a surgery in my nasal cavity a while back, they went in through the roof of my mouth so i was on liquid food for a while. one of my favorites was a smoothie i would make. 1 scoop of protein powder 1 container yogurt 1 cup of milk 1 cup of frozen berries (my fav was blueberries) I also...

Ok. is this something you buy at the grocery store? or liquor store?

Hrmm, i think the part i'm really not sure on was the vinegar. So you're using wine as a vinegar? maybe that's where i'm going wrong!

So at a local restaurant here they have a greek salad that i really enjoy. It comes with a side vinegrette that they told me is just made up of olive oil, white vinegar and oregano. I tried making some at home and mine doesnt taste good at all.. what i'm wondering is what kind of vinegar...
