HIP TIP (FOR THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING)

Today is the day.
The first day of Spring.
And here is a tip that will knock your socks off!

We all know that Orange Juice is good for your insides-- your heart, your mood, bone health, digestion, and even your eyesight.

BUT DID YOU KNOW the Vitamin C in the OJ stimulates your skin to produce collagen to fill in wrinkles?

Add OJ to some honey to create a deep cleaning and rejuvenating mask.
  • A tablespoon of Honey
  • A teaspoon of OJ
Mix well and apply to face (INCLUDING your eye area). Let it sit for about 15 minutes, and rinse with lukewarm water.

LOW CARB PIZZA

DIFFICULTY LEVEL: OY!


It seems that everyone these days is on a diet. There's the Cabbage Soup Diet, 24 Hour Diet of the Stars, South Beach Diet, the Zone—and of course, the popular Atkins diet.


Kvell and plotz over your rice-less sushi all you want, but lowering your carbohydrate intake DOES in fact prove to be the most effective method of losing weight.


Here is a low carb, whole grain alternative to eating a New York slice (but you still have to go to your Pilates class):


**

  • Whole Wheat Tortillas
  • 1 can / jar of Marinara sauce (NO chunks)
  • 1 bag of shredded Pizza Cheese (aka Mozzarella) and/ or fresh shredded Parmesan


Spray both sides of tortilla with a bit of cooking oil (aka PAM). Put in oven (on tin foil) for about 2 minutes on each side at 350. This makes for a crispy crust.


Take the tortilla out and spread with marinara and top with your cheese. Act like one of those pizza guys, but don’t make a mess on the floor. Put the mini pizza back in the oven and cook until cheese bubbles and the top browns. Take out and BE PATIENT—the pizza must cool for a few minutes before you take a knife to it.


How to Plate: Cut the mini pizza as you would a large one. The pieces are very cute. This works great as an appetizer!


Note for Goyisha: Top with any meat like grilled chicken to add protein in this yummy dish!

I've Always Said...

... that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach.

And I have yet to be proven wrong!

My boyfriend JUST became my fiance (I said "yes") -- so please excuse the lack of posts this week!

I promise to let you all in on:
  • the "last meal" I made for him before he popped the big question
  • an amazing Hip Tip that will blow you away
  • and, of course, some fabulous NEW shoes
Stay tuned!
