in Kilo Leicht, on January 24, 2009
© Kelly Hau Photography
Warum immer noch Leute auf Atkins schwören, ist sicher nicht nur mir schleierhaft. Robert C. Atkins, der die nach ihm benannte Low-Carb-Diät entwickelte, hatte schon zu Lebzeiten viele Kritiker. Doch mit seinem Tod 2003 wurde die Kritik auch persöhnlich, es hieß, d...

The South Beach Diet Vs The GI Diet?

As I've said before I am not a fan of crazy diets. But there is one diet that actually I would say is not a diet but a life style choice. The GI choice.

If my hubby still owned a BB gun, if I were a sharp shooter, and if I relished the idea of beheading and de-furring a fuzzy grey squirrel, you can bet I would have made this dish with it just to try what's traditional. Am I ever so glad that chicken is now the meat of choice when prepa...
