Watch Maria on Urban Rush on Shaw TV, Channel 4 Tuesday July 17th!
Next tuesday, July 17th i’ll be on Urban Rush, a local television show in Vancouver speaking about summertime eating! we have so many different foods during the summer that are not available at other times of the year, and we need to take advantage of it! i’ll be speaking about 2 main things; first-fresh fruit. i can’t emphasize this enough! people still don’t get enough fresh fruit in their diet, and i figured i would chat about a more ‘forgotten fruit’-watermelon! Watermelon is only available for a short period of time, and so i say enjoy! 1 cup is a serving, compared to the 1/2 cup serving for most other fruit. so dig in! i’ll also have a grilled recipe for watermelon and pineapple, that Mike, Fiona and I will be cooking up on the show…yum…
the 2nd nutrition tip is going to be on Grilling. Grilling meat is wonderful, however you need to be careful not to char the meat. also, cooking high fat cut of meat on the BBQ is dangerous, as cancerous compounds are formed. options? grill with the lid up. partially cook the meat before tossing on the grill, and just BBQ for a short while. So simple, and so beneficial!
