www.karenrothnutrition.com Today I am talking about one of Americas favorite foods. Pizza! We have a love hate relationship with pizza, because it tastes so good, but we know deep down most pizzas contain a thick crust of refined carbohydrates and trans fats, while the toppings ranging from cheese to sausage are loaded with fat from unhealthy animal sources. So I want to share with you some of my ways of turning this delicious temptation into a healthy meal without sacrificing flavor. This is an easy fast recipe to making your pizza. I start with a flour tortilla. I’m lucky enough to be able to find raw uncooked flour tortillas at my Whole Foods market. If you have a health food store, look for them there. Because starting with the crust is where you can save on a lot of harmful fat because you cook it yourself. You simply heat 1 tortilla in a non stick pan until its cooked on both sides. No oil needed. The tortilla is 120 calories. Once cooked, place on a pizza pan while you prepare the toppings. Next sauté fresh or frozen vegetables with a little olive oil and crushed red pepper for some heat. Any vegetable will do. I always have in my freezer, a bag of frozen spinach and artichoke hearts. Both great pizza toppings. Other favorites are chopped onion, tomato, mushrooms, broccoli florets and asparagus tips. Very few calories in this topping. The pizza sauce is important. I use a fresh one made that I find at my local Trader Joes that is made from fresh tomatoes and …

In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make very basic (but super tasty) salmon cakes. This is a very easy recipe, inexpensive, quick, and healthy! You can’t beat that!!! Ingredients: 15.75 oz. can pink salmon (drained) 2 eggs, well beaten 2 tablespoons dried chopped onion 1/3 inner packet of saltine crackers, finely crushed olive oil for sauteing Beat the 2 eggs well. Add the drained salmon, 2 tablespoons dried chopped onion and the 1/3 inner packet of finely crushed saltine crackers. (You can crush the crackers by placing them in a zip-lock plastic bag, closing it, and going over the bag with a rolling pin, until all crackers are well crushed.) Stir these ingredients together until they are completely mixed. Put about 1 tablespoon of olive or other cooking oil into a skillet on the stove. Bring it to medium heat, and start adding the salmon cakes. You may drop them by spoonfuls, and flatten them out (quickest), or use your hands to form them into circular patties. Keep the heat at a level where the patties are frying well. Turn the patties as they become golden on the bottom side. It will only take about 5 minutes (or less) per side. Transfer the cooked salmon cakes to a tray with paper toweling to absorb any extra oil. Then, place the salmon cakes on a serving dish. Serve while hot! This is one of those recipes you’ve just got to have in your collection!
