| All you need to know about Beans |
|
Beans are members of the legume family, like peas, and they are an excellent source of protein, iron, and starch. They are also low in fat, which makes them an excellent source of low-fat, high-energy protein replacing high-fat meats and cheeses.
Dried beans come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. They're a popular mainstay in many cuisines because they are inexpensive, last seemingly forever once they're dried, and taste delicious when they're cooked up. Baked beans recipes are common for side dishes as well as entrees; however you cook them, chances are your family will gobble them up, so it's a good idea to make a double batch!

| Important Tips |
Orange Tips
- Prevent browning of fresh cut fruits and vegetables by dipping into a mixture of 1 cup water and 1 tablespoon orange juice or by brushing fruits and vegetables with orange juice.
- One pound of oranges equals approximately 3 medium oranges, 1 cup of juice, 1 to 1 1/2 cups sections, and 4 to 5 tbsp. grated peel. One medium orange equals approximately 1/3 to 1/2 cup juice, 10 to 12 segments, and 1 1/2 to 2 tbsp. grated peel.
- If only using the juice from an orange, first remove the zest and freeze it for future use to add flavor to other dishes. Zest can be frozen for up to 6 months.
- Orange juice stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator will retain up to 90% of its vitamin C for up to 6 or 7 days.
- When squeezing fresh oranges, use some of the pulp in the juice whenever possible to add extra flavor.
- Use blood oranges in place of navel or Valencia oranges to add color and a unique flavor to sweet and savory dishes.

| DID YOU KNOW? |
| The grapefruit diet require you to eat half a grapefruit before every meal to reap the benefits of the fruit's so-called fat-burning enzymes. Calories typically are limited to fewer than 800 a day, although some versions require that you eat until you are full. Grapefruit has no fat, is low in calories and sodium, and is packed with vitamin C. But the very low calories — and deficits in protein, fiber and several important vitamins and minerals — can make this diet dangerous. Similarly, the cabbage soup diet proponents report feeling lightheaded and weak because the diet is too low in protein, vitamins and complex carbohydrates. You may lose weight, but you'll probably be too queasy to enjoy it. Remember, no foods can burn fat. Caffeine-rich foods may speed up your metabolism rate for a short time. However, they do not cause any weight loss. The best way to lose weight is to reduce the number of calories you eat and increase your physical activities. |
