"The Zone Diet" author Dr. Barry Sears says that the obesity crisis sweeping America is due to hormones being out of balance, not a lack of willpower. The true driving force behind our obesity crisis is the rapid increase in diet-induced inflammation that turns on the genes to make us fat and keep us fat. The doctor's theory is that this inflammation comes from the combination of the over-consumption of refined carbohydrates that raise the hormone insulin coupled with increased dietary intakes of cheap vegetable oils rich in omega-6 fatty acids.
Blue cheese adds tang to veal cutlets and linguine
Juicy veal cutlets with a tangy Roquefort sauce creates a tasty dish. Veal cutlets only take 2 or 3 minutes to cook. They will continue to cook in their own heat once removed from the skillet. Just one ounce of cheese helps to make a very light, flavorful sauce.
Use a skillet that just fits the veal in one layer. If the skillet is too large the sauce will run dry. If your skillet is too small, cook the veal in batches so that the pieces are only in one layer. This meal contains 602 calories with 23% of calories from fat.
Wine suggestion: Let's be adventurous and try a lightly sweet white Riesling.
