At our last meeting on nutrition, I mentioned some beautiful plates I found that help you eliminate the guesswork when it comes to portion control. The plates are called Slimware.
Portion control works better for weight loss than almost anything else - including upping your exercise, consuming less fat, or increasing fruits and vegetables. (according to a study in Obesity Research).
These plates, with built in portion control in the designs, can help eliminate the guesswork. Just pile your veggies over the largest flower, and your meat on the smallest. The medium flower is just right for starches.
The plates come in several different styles, and can be purchased for $36.50 at slimware.com. (My favorite plate - Sunburst - a yellow square plate - is out of stock right now. But there are several other beautiful styles.)
Happy Portion Control!
Thanks for the recipe. I hope my husband and kids will be game to try it.
