• I originally saw the link to Shape of a Mother on Cranky Fitness. This is a wonderful site, giving a refreshing dose of reality about womens’ bodies after pregnancy.
• After discussing the Australian proposal to offer people money to lose weight, over at Dietriffic Melanie has brought up the topic of workplace better health incentives. Do they work and are they a good idea?
• Veggie Chic has posted about calling a truce with your vegetable enemies. Remember those vegies you hated as a kid? If you’re still avoiding them, it may be time to reconsider.
• Bon Appegeek is promising a lot with her exciting eggplant with exciting spicy peanut topping, but it looks wonderful and easy to make.
• Susan of Well Seasoned Cook fame has put together a simple salad with an amazing looking dressing: raspberry marmalade vinaigrette. It’s hot, sweet, zesty and sour all at the same time and I can’t wait to try it.
• Veggie Meal Plans has posted a recipe for whipped white beans with roasted beetroot and mushroom. Apart from the obvious point it contains my most adored vegetable, beetroot, I love the whipped white beans recipe. This dish is a great alternative to mashed potato for those trying to eat more vegies and lower the GI of their diet.
• Mallika at Quick Indian Cooking has been curing her husband with fighting fit spicy chicken curry. According to Mallika “what a grown man needs to cure a sinus is hearty, spicy chicken curry, cooked by his loving wife”!
