most healthy food is tasty. watch food channel for ideas or surf rachel ray's web site -- she is really good at making tasty simple stuff. just eating a plain chicken breast and a salad isn't that tasty though.

Answer 3

I always like a salad with grilled chicken in it. So tasty, easy, and healthy.

Answer 4

Corn, a healthy alternative

Did you know that corn bread is more nutritious than even wheat bread? or that if you mix in beans and corn together (as in corn bread and chili) that you have a complete protein by mixing them? Corn is one of the healthiest vegetables you can incorporate into your diet - whether fresh ears.wish YOU good health! Hugs

UHHH SOMETHING HEALTHY AND TASTY....

Enjoy this classic Mediterranean salad of tender grilled tuna steak, green beans, new potatoes, red onion, Nicoise olives, cherry tomatoes and hard-boiled egg. A simple champagne vinegar-based dressing, with overtones of mustard, shallots and fresh tarragon, ties it all together. Accompany with a loaf of warm, rustic French bread.

Serves 4–6
Vinaigrette

2 TB Champagne vinegar
1 TB fresh tarragon, chopped
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 small shallot, minced
3/4 cup olive oil
sea salt, to taste
ground pepper, to taste

Tuna

16 oz fresh tuna steak
olive oil cooking spray

Salad

1/2 lb green beans, trimmed, blanched
11/2 lb small new potatoes
1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup pitted Niçoise olives
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 egg, hard boiled, peeled and quartered (optional)


In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, tarragon, Dijon and shallot. Slowly whisk in olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Marinate tuna for 30 minutes in 1/4 cup vinaigrette. Spray grill with olive oil cooking spray. Preheat grill to medium heat. Grill tuna until cooked through, approximately 5–7 minutes on each side. Let tuna rest for 2 minutes. Slice tuna and set aside.

Blanch the green and dress with 1/8 cup vinaigrette. Boil the potatoes until tender, about 12 minutes, and dress with 1/4 cupvinaigrette.

To arrange salad on one large serving platter, place individual salad ingredients and tuna in separate mounds on the plate. Drizzle with vinaigrette.

Answer 6

A couple of my faves:



Tabouli
2 cups cracked wheat (bulghur)
2 cups very hot water
1 cucumber, chopped
2 small tomatoes, chopped
1 bunch green onions, (8) sliced
1/2 cup fresh chopped mint,
2 cups fresh chopped parsley
1 clove garlic, minced (optional)


Dressing:
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon pepper
2 teaspoons salt, or to taste



Soak the cracked wheat in the hot water until the water is absorbed, about 30 minutes.

Drain any excess water, if necessary, and squeeze dry.

Combine the salad ingredients, including wheat, in a medium bowl.

Mix the dressing ingredients together and stir into the salad mixture.

Serve chilled or at room temperature. Makes about 8 cups, 12 to 16 servings.
