Hi everyone:
If there is one food better than turnips, it has to be hotdogs! But I have the solution!
I urge everyone to overcome their tofu aversions and try tofu/veggie dogs. They are usually virtually non-fat and extrememly high in protien while very low in calories, compared to regular hotdogs. These products have come a long, long way, but it still helps to shop around for different varieties. (Sodium should be checked, however)
I've been converted (as I have to be, as a vegetarian!) and I can actually eat them to gain a nutrition boost during the day. The best way to prepare them by far is to boil them in water until floppy. BBQing is okay, but by boiling, they taste pretty close to 'normal'. They are also super chopped up in beans and weiners and in kraft dinner, etc... for fast healthy meals. Or just spear with a fork, drap in mustard, and eat!!
Has anyone else found a health-food alternative to a not so healthy food that is actually a nutricious boost? (ie: not just a 'diet' product of articicial stuff and chemicals?)
