		<description><![CDATA[Ok, I have to start by saying that I normally don&#8217;t watch Top Chef.&#160; I&#8217;m turned off by the bickering, bad attitudes and general poor sportsmanship.&#160; 
&#160;
Now that that&#8217;s out of my system&#8230;. I&#8217;m SO excited that Rick Bayless won!&#160; We had the opportunity to meet him at the Fancy Food Show in NYC in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; In the 10 years I&#8217;ve lived in Dutchess County I&#8217;ve seen a small explosion of Asian restaurants and Asian grocery stores that have really expanded my interest in Thai, Japanese, Chinese and Indian cuisines. As chefs this is fantastic because we are able to buy ingredients at these stores that just aren&#8217;t found at [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; Recipe testing is one of the most important &#8211; and really fun &#8211; things we do as Personal Chefs. You could say we&#8217;re food explorers. We scan through many different food magazines (Gourmet, Fine Cooking, Bon Appetit, Cooking Light, Cook&#8217;s Illustrated, Cook&#8217;s Country), cookbooks,&#160;and Web sites (The Food Network, Recipezaar, Epicurious) always looking out [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We were asked the question whether hummus was healthier than mayonnaise. Hummus wins hands down. Here are the facts:
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; Sabras Hummus, which is by far our favorite store bought hummus, has 6g fat, 1g saturated fat, and 130mg sodium for a 2 tablespoon serving.
&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; Regular Mayonnaise has 11g fat, 1.5g saturated fat, 10mg cholesterol and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; So why do&#160; millions of folks throughout the world turn to commercial diet systems to prepare and package their food? There is very little science to what NutriSystem, Jenny Craig, The Zone Diet and Weight Watchers do. They measure quantities and package it up. Yes, some measure the glycemic index, calorie levels, etc., etc. [...]]]></description>

&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; Compared to NutriSystem, the biggest difference&#160;between programs is that Jenny Craig comes with different levels of counseling and support which you get to choose depending on how much money you want [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; The reality is commercial diet systems like NutriSystem, Jenny Craig and The Zone Diet want you to become dependent upon their food. This is how they make money. So, you decide to make the leap thinking that&#160;12-18 dollars per day for food isn&#8217;t that bad. This sounds inexpensive until you add in the fact [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; Salt. You can&#8217;t escape it. It&#8217;s in almost everything we eat. And it&#8217;s also a necessary part of our body&#8217;s chemical processes, particularly hydration. You could say we have a love/hate relationship with the mighty salt crystal. On the whole, we need a minimum of 500 mg per day to be healthy. 2300 mg [...]]]></description>
