This "superfood" dinner may cut your risk in half. It includes 5
servings of lycopene rich tomato paste, 1 serving of oily fish, 2
tablespoons of heart healthy olive oil, 3 servings of spinach, and one
serving of garlic. It has over 20 grams of fiber. Calories: spinach
100, herring 200, olive oil 200, tomato paste 150 - total 650. Of
course, you don't have to eat it all. Since I usually eat the same
dinner every night, I'm bound to get it right eventually. The secret
to taste: olive oil. Yummy! Here's the "secret" formula: 1) cook 9
oz fresh spinach in microwave for 4 minutes. After it's cooked slice
up with knife. 2) add one tin (1.75 oz) of herring (called "kippered
snacks") - chop up with fork 3) add one 6 oz can of tomato paste + 6
oz hot water 4) add 3 tablespoons of minced garlic 5) add 3 teaspoons
of "italian seasoning" (McCormick brand is ok) 6) add two tablespoons
of olive oil (extra virgin) Mix well - microwave 7 minutes on high,
let sit for 6 minutes. I you eat salt (I don't) you may add salt to
taste. Enjoy! Critics: 1) don't like herring, use salmon or mackeral
instead. 2) garlic too smelly - cook the garlic first. the more
cooking, the less the odor.
