Chef Chronicles

Teaching myself how to tweak recipes in an effort to make them "heart friendly" has been interesting. The biggest change has been eliminating salt, no fried foods, and way less fat. I am slowly cooking more at home, since my doctor recommends that I eat no food that comes from a bag. NO FAST FOOD! I do love my chinese food though, I get steamed shrimp and broccoli with garlic sauce on the side. It saves me on a busy or late day from work. At least when I cook my food I know exactly what the ingredients are and can control what goes in my my belly.

Tonight I made crab legs and sauteed red potatoes and it was Awesome! Very tasty!!!

Sauteed Red Potato Recipe
4 red potatoes (boiled)
Onion 
Peppers (I used yellow and red)
Fresh Parsley 
Mrs. Dash (salt free seasoning)
Olive Oil 

I used enough Olive Oil to coat the bottom of the frying pan. I sauteed the veggies until they were tender. Once they were soft enough I added a good amount of Mrs. Dash to the pan. I sliced the boiled potatoes and placed them in the pan. I mixed the veggies, parsley and potatoes thoroughly and made sure it was fully coated. That's it. Very simple.


Sorry no pics of the crabs!
