Feijoada Fascination

Ever since my trip to Miami, I have been obsessed with cuban sandwiches and Feijoada. Now, it isn't a typical Miami dish, but Feijoada was sometime I fell into while eating at the Lincoln Road Mall in Miami Beach. You can't get more touristy than eating at Sushi Samba in Miami Beach, however it was a fantastic choice. I didn't even know how to pronounce it, but reading the description was enough get me salivating and wanting.

When I returned back to NY, I could easily head to the Sushi Samba location in NYC but I wanted to see if I could make it on my own. It is a lot easier than you think. It may not look incredibly pleasing, but taste it and you will be pleased.

What you'll need to make my version of Feijoada is simple:

- 1 can black beans

- 8 Sweet Italian Sausages

- Garlic

- Bay leaves

- Sofrito

- Lemon Juice

- Sour Orange

- Parsley or Cilantro

Mix ingredients together and let "stew" for about 2 hours on medium to low heat. Add a side of rice, a slice of orange, and greens of your choice and enjoy.

Different Types of Diets Part 1 - Atkins Diet

What Is The Atkins Diet? The Atkins weight loss diet is based on one simple principle: Your body burns both carbohydrates and fat for calories. If you reduce the amounts of carbohydrates available, it will burn more fat and you will lose weight. According to Atkins, calories are unimportant. The key to losing weight is to restrict the carbohydrates that you eat and force the body to turn to its stored fat as an energy source. As proof of this, proponents of the Atkins Diet point to the following facts derived from research: * When the body doesn't have enough carbohydrate, it will use ketenes derived from fat as energy. * You can eat more food and lose more weight on a low carbohydrate diet than you can on a low fat diet. * You crave less food when you eat fewer carbohydrates. * By eating fewer carbohydrates, people tend to eat fewer calories without counting them. * The greater the difference between fat and carbohydrate, the greater the weight loss.
