- A diet menu for every state in the USA packed with nutritional goodness, and just a couple of the healthier slightly naughty snacks that reflect the flavor of the state. Let's begin with the great state of Alabama! Our menus are based on each state's eating culture.

Alabama - The Heart of Dixie State, The Camellia State, The Yellowhammer State, The Cotton State.

One cannot think of Alabama without a picturesque family scene appearing in their minds - lazy hot summers, coolers of lemonade and kids catching fireflies in Mason jars.

Pork is another big piece of the 'crop' pie. The backbone of the diet of early Alabama settlers centered around crops indigenous to the area.

This was of course before the days of new-fangled farm machinery and massive manufacturing, as well as before the earliest inhabitants - the Chickasaw, Choctaw, Cherokee and Creek Indian tribes.

Keeping this in mind, we have built our Alabama Diet Menu around these three tasty, healthy crops in our salute to Alabamians.

Alabama Tenderloin - Wrap one lean pork tenderloin with strips of bacon. Bake at 350 degrees uncovered in the oven according to package directions. Remove, cut into thin slices. Enjoy 3 ounces for about 150 calories.

Alabama Hoe Down - Enjoy the following stir-fried in no calorie, butter flavored cooking spray: 1 teaspoon of hulled peanuts, 1 cup of fresh asparagus (or shredded cabbage), 1 small diced onion, 1 cup of sliced or button mushrooms, 1 shredded/grated carrot. Cook until tender. Add 1 Tablespoon of sweet n sour sauce. About 150 calories. We calculated 40 calories for our sweet n sour sauce. Recipe will vary according to the brand used.

Back Porch Lemonade, Diet Style - Take along chilled water to your picnic, a few lemons and a few packs of no calorie sweetener. Pour water into cup, mug or glass; add lemon juice and sweetener to suit personal taste. Zero Calories.

Our Weight Loss Meal Formula

To keep as satisfied as possible while dieting, it's a good idea to ration out your calories so that you are never placed in a situation where you are so hungry that you throw your diet away.

We suggest that you allow 350 calories for breakfast, 500 calories for lunch and 400 calories for dinner. Allow about 100 calories for a couple of snacks throughout the day. Total calories - about 1,350.
