Holly’s Stir-Fried Asparagus
Holly’s Stir-Fried Asparagus: Spray a large skillet or wok with Pam, then add approx. 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Heat the oil, then add fresh asparagus. Add garlic salt and pepper as you stir fry. Serve when still a bit firm. Although asparagus is not my favorite vegetable, it is filled with vitamins and minerals and is one of the vegetables that rates lowest on the glycemic index.

Holly’s Spicy Green Beans
Holly’s Spicy Green Beans: Spray a large skillet or wok with Pam, then add approx. 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Heat the oil, then add frozen green beans (I like the French cut organic frozen green beans you can find in the freezer department of Costco or Trader Joes). Add garlic salt, pepper and crushed red pepper as you stir fry. I make these beans very spicy, but you can omit the red pepper.

Holly’s Salad
Holly’s Salad: Use any deep green lettuce and any low-glycemic vegetable. I use romaine lettuce, red cabbage, green cabbage, tomatoes, pickling cucumbers and raw broccoli.

I do add a little bit of raw carrot because even though they are higher on the glycemic index, they are full of beta carotene and anti-oxidants. For dressing, I always start with garlic salt and pepper, then toss with any... Read More
