A Simple New Years Recepie Trick

The new year is upon us, and a heartfelt congratulations for surviving 07'. So, I thought I would start out it giving you a very simple but very effective solution to making some proactive changes in 08'. As you all know, portion control, and good food choices are equally as important as exercise. There are some very simple food substitutions that you can make on a daily basis to cut your caloric intake and decrease your portion size. One of my favorite recipes that allows you to indulge in that chocolate fix that so many love is to simply take a box of devils food cake mix and simply stir in a can of pumpkin. Mix well, add in some cherries if you like bake and enjoy. By adding in pumpkin instead of oil and eggs, you have substantially decreased the amount of calories and lowered the fat content. As long as you remember to enjoy only one piece per day this recipe will get you far from overindulging in those sweet and chocolate cravings.
