Recipe from my book

We tried some of the recipes from our new "Eat this not that" book and one of my favorites so far is the Turkey and Guac burgers. I think they were really yummy. Jesús barbecued the turkey patties and I made the guacamole. We are big fans of guacamole over here. Here is the finished product. All you need is some whole wheat buns, ground turkey, homemade guacamole and Sargento low fat swiss cheese. Good stuff.

New recipe and my new favorite book

A couple of months ago, I snatched this recipe of my moms kitchen counter. My sister told me that it was a very good recipe. It is now my favorite recipe. It's called Chicken and Black Bean tostadas go here for the recipe. I changed it up a bit because I dont like radishes so instead I chopped up 2-3 tomatoes, and I made it tacos instead of tostadas. Doesn't that look tasty??? Good stuff, I promise. Now if you have not heard of it let me introduce you to my new favorite book. Its called "It This, Not That the Supermarket survival guide" I use it now for everything I buy. It tells you the best brands to buy of any product you can think of. I am thinking of buying some of the other books that are in the series. This book also offers some really good recipes we have tried two of them so far and they are very good and cheap! Its amazing how much weight you can loose just by eating healthier. I am also starting to do a little gardening so I think that will be a good way to get some exercising in. Jesus and I have talked about getting a treadmill so we can get exercise in even when we cant leave the house. If you want the recipes from this book without buying it let me know and I'll send you some.
