Low Fat, Low GI, Vegan meals for good health

Select Low GI, Low Fat, Vegan foods for every meal and snack.

For Lunch and Dinner: Fill 1/2 your plate with fresh cooked vegetables, 1/4 plate beans or legumes or lentils, 1/4 plate brown basmati rice and a low GI fresh fruit for dessert.

If you are having pasta (try Gluten free pasta) make sure it is cooked al dente and fill 1/3 of your plate with vegetables.

Walk at least 30-45 minutes a day for exercise and include some weight training, yoga or pilates 3 times a week.
**Walking after meals has been most beneficial for me** but walk whenever you can fit it into your daily routine.

Oven fried Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients:
2 large or medium organic sweet potatoes
1/2 tsp. rosemary powder
1/8 tsp. crushed black pepper
1/2 tsp. salt
Avocado oil spray


Preheat oven to 450 °

Wash and cut the sweet potatoes into 3 to 4 inch slices about 1/4 inch thick. No need to peel the organic sweet potatoes.

Spray a large bowl with Avocado oil and add all the ingredients to the bowl and toss to mix well so all the slices are coated with a little oil and seasoning.

Place on non stick oven safe tray in a single layer and bake in oven for about 20 minutes or until some of the slices get slightly brown.

Serve as a side dish with Mung beans or lentils and Brown Basmati rice.

Makes 4 servings.
