I have access to thousands of recipes through my personal cookbook collection. I am constantly researching and developing new recipes. The below list is a small example of the types of meals that you can enjoy.
Most meals can be prepared “South Beach” friendly. I like to use brown rice, whole wheat breadcrumbs, and whole grain pasta. This is all determined by you and what you like.
Salads
I make my own salad dressings, from Jalapeno Ranch to Blue Cheese to Spicy Italian. It’s up to you.
