<br>Hungry Girl Today: 4.14.10
<br>
<br>ASK HUNGRY GIRL
<br>
<br>
<br> 
<br>Hungry Girl,
<br>
<br>I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your new book, HG 1-2-3! Where can I find the Weight 
<br>Watchers POINTS&reg; values for the recipes? And do you have a favorite 
<br>recipe in the book?
<br>
<br>Constantly Counting  
<br>
<br>
<br> 
<br> 
<br> Dear Counting,
<br>
<br>Thank you! I'm so glad you LOVE Hungry Girl 1-2-3: The Easiest, Most 
<br>Delicious, Guilt-Free Recipes on the Planet. It really is a GREAT book... and 
<br>I'm not just saying that! The POINTS&reg; values* for ALL the recipes in the 
<br>book (as well as those in the other books) can be found at hungry-
<br>girl.com/book. There you'll find a mini site for each book featuring the 
<br>POINTS&reg; value* and a photo of every single recipe! Here's a direct link to 
<br>the HG 1-2-3 mini site. As for my favorite recipe? That's hard. I love SO 
<br>many! Here are just a few of my faves...
<br>
<br>
<br>Backyard BBQ Beef Cups - The first time we made these, I almost passed 
<br>out when I tasted them (in a good way)! They'll WOW everyone, yet you only 
<br>need four ingredients to make them. They're also great when made with lean 
<br>ground turkey or soy crumbles in place of the beef. 
<br>
<br>Cinnamon French Toast Bowl-a-rama - Okay, if you love HG "egg mug" 
<br>recipes, you'll FREAK when you try French toast in a mug! Easy and 
<br>delicious...
<br>
<br>Honey Mustard Pretzel-Coated Chicken Fingers - The name pretty much says 
<br>it all! This dish is sweet 'n satisfying. Kids LOVE it, too. In fact, I can't think of 
<br>anyone who wouldn't love this (except maybe vegetarians)!
<br>
<br>Enjoy!
<br>
<br>

<br>Dear HG,
<br>
<br>I once heard you say that you had high cholesterol. I was shocked but then 
<br>found out I have it, too. I am not overweight, and I exercise and eat lots of 
<br>healthy foods with fiber. Any tips for me?
<br>
<br>Cholesterol Concerned  
<br> 
<br> 
<br>Dear Concerned,
<br>
<br>OK, while this isn't my area of expertise, I HAVE to share a recent 
<br>experience of mine. (Sorry to get all serious on you!) Like you, I'm at a 
<br>healthy weight and exercise regularly (4 - 6 times a week for 40 - 60 
<br>minutes at a time). I also eat lots of good-for-you, high-fiber foods and do 
<br>ALL the standard things that experts recommend to lower cholesterol. But 
<br>until recently, my numbers were still elevated. Well, a few months ago, 
<br>someone told me I should try taking Benecol Smart Chews. These little 
<br>caramel-flavored things (20 calories each) taste like candy and contain an 
<br>ingredient called "plant stanol esters," which is said to lower cholesterol. 
<br>Without making ANY other changes, I started taking them twice a day 
<br>(they're delicious, BTW), and my total cholesterol dropped by 35 points to a 
<br>normal level. And my "bad" cholesterol dropped 40 points! Again, adding 
<br>these chews to my diet is the ONLY change I made. I'm NOT a doctor, a 
<br>dietitian, or a nutritionist; I'm just a normal human who's had a very positive 
<br>experience with this one product. And I am THRILLED to share this info, in 
<br>case there are others out there like me who haven't had success with other 
<br>methods of lowering cholesterol. This is not an area I typically touch on, and 
<br>this is IN NO WAY an advertisement for Benecol. But when I saw your 
<br>question, I really wanted to tell you (and the rest of the world!) about what 
<br>happened with me... I am SOOO psyched about it. If anyone out there tries 
<br>it, please let me know how it works out!!! 
<br>
