So, if this is October, where are the pumpkins?
It's nearly time for me to bore everybody to tears babbling
on and on and on about chocolate chip pumpkin bread.

My doctor has "suggested" I go on a low fat diet (30 grams of fat or less
per day.) Since we all know that it is fat which makes food taste good, and
since I adore food that tastes good, has anyone got any really delicious
recipes for dishes that have few grams of fat? Since I eat out at lunchtime
everyday, that's another problem. I may take to carrying my own salad
dressing to the office. Any suggestions, short of changing MD's will be
appreciated.

Thirty grams of fat per day sounds like about 12 percent of calories
per day... Do you have serious cardiovascular problems? I haven't
heard of anyone recommending less than 20-25 percent of calories
from fat except for anti heart disease programs, and of course,
Pritikin (10% of fat calories per day). According to sources
such as Prevention Magazine, a normal amount of calories per day
for the average female to consume would be 2200, and 25% of those
calories in fat would work out to approximately 61 grams of fat
per day. In any case, you might pick up some low fat cookbooks.
I recently bought "Low Fat and Loving It," by Ruth Spear. It looks
pretty good, though I haven't cooked from it yet.

Dean Ornish's program recommends 10% fat intake; it's really much
healthier than 25%.
The ol' Orange-Onion Chicken recipe:
2 chicken breasts, skins removed
1 envelope dried onion soup mix
1 6 oz. can orange juice concentrate (frozen)
Thaw the concentrate and mix it with the orange juice. Put the chicken
in a pan and pour the orange-onion sauce over it. Bake. (I think
it's at 350 for 20-30 minutes; check your Betty Crocker guide.)

Thanks Leslie and Laurel. No, I dont have any cardiovascular problems other

>tryglcerides. I am 30 lbs overweight. The MD strongly suggested the
>"T-Factor" Diet which allows you to eat as much as you want but to lose
>weight quickly and healthily, reduce fat intake (for a woman to 20-30 grams
>per day) for three weeks, then onto maintenance which is up to 40 grams per
>day. I will try the chicken with oj and onion soup mix. I also found
>some great salad dressing (no fat) recipes in the T factor diet book so I

>I exhaust the recipes I am finding in this book. One I'll share with you

> 2 chicken Breats, skin removed
1/2 cup coarsely chopped peeled fresh ginger
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped garlic
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
2 tbl. sugar (i will reduce this)
Chop all the ingredients besides the chicken in the food processor.
Broil chicken after marinating overnight in the sauce for 7-8 minutes
Hope it turns out well.

Dean Ornish was the anti heart disease program I was thinking of,
I think. The big problem with trying to stick with 10% of calories
from fat is that it's really hard to make things taste good and
feel good in the mouth. Not impossible, I suppose, but more work
than I'm willing to put in. I'd be really happy if I could adjust
comfortably to 25% of calories from fat.

It's not that hard to make food that's low fat, but it is hard to
FIND food (in restaurants and at the grocery store) that's low in
fat. Also, that's 10% total calories from fat, so you could eat
(say) a chicken dish with fatty sauce and a side of wild rice which
has no fat, as long as your total intake was no more than 10%.
The Produce Station carries some salad dressings--I think they're
called "Paula's Dressings" or something--which are fat-free amd
yummy.
