My Diet is Just Peachy!

Make your diet a peach by injecting a little fresh flesh straight from the vine. Start out with our delicious Peach Fandango Pork OR Chicken and finish up with Peach Cloud Fluff - both tantalizing recipes listed below.

Might we suggest a peach bubblebath afterwards - for women, and hairy-legged men dieters, alike! Don't forget to light a few peach-scented candles and place a glass of iced peach flavored tea on the tub while soaking.  Now for those tasty low fat recipes.

Peach Fandango - a low calorie, low fat chicken OR pork recipe:

 

You will need the following ingredients which serves 2 generously:

 

2 thin pork chops OR 2 flattened chicken breasts cooked until golden brown

 

* Chicken breasts can be easily flattened by placing between plastic wrap and tapping with a mallet.

 

Top with the following mixture:

In a non-stick skillet using butter-flavored non-stick cooking spray, saute 1/4 cup of diced onions, and 1/4 cup of diced celery.

 

Once mixture clarifies, add 1 small cubed peach with the skin left on.  

 

Add dried OR fresh of the following: parsley, sage, thyme to suit personal taste.  

 

Add a bit of salt and ground pepper.

 

Add 1 cup of crumbled cornbread OR cubed stuffing, stir and then remove from heat.

 

* Golden raisins, slivered almonds and small whole mushrooms may also be added to create a different, luscious flavor.

Place 1 seeded peach into the microwave in a microwavable bowl for about 1 minute - or until peach liquefies.  Remove and add JUST a bit of cornstarch that has been mixed with cool water. Return to microwave until peach juice thickens.

 

Now we are ready to assemble our Peach Fandango Pork (or Chicken):

Top chop or chicken with stuffing mixture.  Drizzle with peach glaze.  Serve with 1/2 baked sweet potatoe and a mix of the following: raw spinach, dried cranberries, Ken's Raspberry Walnut salad dressing.

 

Our Peach Cloud Fluff is ultra easy!

Take one small box of sugar free peach gelatin that has just started to set up in the fridge and CAREFULLY fold in one small container of LITE whipped topping, 1 chopped peach, dash nutmeg, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and a bit of Vanilla extract.
