Tips-Simplify. Instead of being overly concerned with counting calories or measuring portion sizes, think of your diet in terms of color, variety, and freshness.

-Start slow and make changes to your eating habits over time. As your small changes become habit, you can continue to add more healthy choices to your diet.

-Every change you make to improve your diet matters. The long term goal is to feel good, have more energy, and reduce the risk of cancer and disease.

Delicious Recipes

Oven-Fried Beef Taquitos

-This healthy beef taquitos recipe calls for baking instead of deep-frying, making the taquitos substantially healthier than what you’d get at a restaurant. One order of these little deep-fried, rolled-up tacos at a restaurant can set you back almost 1,000 calories and 60 grams of fat! Don’t worry if some of the taquitos crack open while baking—they’re still crispy and delicious. Serve with your favorite salsa, guacamole and reduced-fat sour cream.
