Recipe of the month

Twice Baked Potatoes

My Husbands Low Fat Recipe

2 1/2 lbs of Baking Potatoes

1/2 Stick of Low Fat Cream Cheese

1 TBSP Parmesean Cheese

1 TBSP Smart Balance Buttery Spread

Dash of Milk if necessary

Salt & Pepper to taste


1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

 

2. Wash and pierce potatoes. Place on baking sheet and bake 45 - 60 minutes, until soft in the center.

 

3. When done, carefully slice potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out center.

 

4. Place Potato filling in a bowl and place skins back on the baking sheet then set aside.

 

5. Add Smart Balance and cheeses to bowl with potatoes and stir well. Add salt and pepper to taste. For creamier

    texture you can put in blender. If too dry you can add a small amount of milk.

 

6. Spoon or pipe filling into shells and place in over at 350 degrees for 15-25 minutes, until warm.

Exercise of the month

Photo Coming Soon

Elliptical Machine

 

Benefits:

  • Strengthens legs
  • Improves Cardiovascular Endurance
  • Improves Cardiovascular Strength
  • Reduces Stress

How to do this exercise:

(Always be sure to check with your Dr before performing this or any other new exercise especially if you have heart problems, high or low blood pressure, back or neck problems or are pregnant)

  1. Read directions on machine and if you are in the gym make sure to ask the staff to help your first time on any machine.

  2. Warm up gradually for 5 minutes. After that adjust your resistance and ramp level for a varied workout.

  3. Talk Test - To be sure that you are working out at a fatburning level you should be able to talk but not hold much of a conversation. If you are blabbing away - you are not working hard enough.

  4. As you work on the machine be sure not to lock your knees and to not rest your body weight on your arms.

  5. You can also vary the workout by reversing the direction of your stride. When you are ready to be done make sure to gradually cooldown for five minutes and after carefully stepping off the machine spend a few minutes
    stretching.
