Heart Healthy Recipes from the Tubes

by Glenn Fullington

It's actually much easier than I anticipated to eat healthy when I implemented this infernal series of tubes into the equation. Infinite sources have presented themselves in the form of cookbooks and online meal plans specifically aimed at dietary obedience.

The Mayo Clinic site offers many recipes tailored for specific diets including diabetes meal plans, heart-healthy, low carb, high fiber, low fat, low sodium, and even vegetarian fare. All are easily accessible and include nutrition information for each meal. 

Another site I enjoy is Delicious Decisions, a recipe guide presented by the American Heart Association. There is a quick recipe calculator that will compile a meal with given ingredients.

Food Network has a good selection of low cholesterol recipes, and they present a case for most other diets. They are affiliated with another site, EatingWell, that offers even more health conscious food ideas. The chicken and sun dried tomato orzo is definitely on my menu for this weekend.
