Recipe
FEED YOURSELF RIGHT
Smoked Salmon Wrap
 |
INGREDIENTS: Makes 4 wraps
- 4 8" wheat tortillas
- 1/4c mascarpone cheese
- 1/4c fat-free cream cheese
- 3oz smoked salmon slices (4 slices)
- 1/2 small red onion, thinly slices
- 1/2 cucumber, peeled if waxed and grated
- Freshly ground black pepper
|
|
INSTRUCTIONS:
Spread tortillas on a clean work surface. In a small bowl, with a rubber spatula, blend
together the mascarpone and cream cheese until smooth. Divide the cheese among the tortillas and spread evenly,
covering as much of the tortilla as possible. Lay the salmon slices on top of the cheese down the center of the
tortilla. Sprinkle with red onion slices, cucumber and ground pepper. To make sure there is salmon in every bite,
place salmon lengthwise across the tortilla and roll tightly to create a log shape. Wrap tightly in plastic and
refrigerate for up to 12 hours. Just before serving, cut the wrap in half crosswise on a slight diagonal.

Reduce Salt in Your Diet
Skip the shaker and you may still get way too much sodium. Here's why.
You already know that limiting the amount of salt you add to your plate is a good idea. Unfortunately, 80%
of the sodium we consume comes from restaurant meals and packaged foods. "As a result, the average American's diet
contains two to three times the FDA's recommended limit of 1,500 mg to 2,400 mg a day," says Stephen Havas, M.D.,
of the american Medical Association (AMA). And the experts estimate that excess sodium kills 150,000 people yearly,
which is why the AMA wants to add warning labels to foods high in sodium Here's what you must know to shake the sodium
habit.
|
Even If You Don't Add Salt to Your Meals, You Need to Keep Tabs
on Your Intake
A typical fast-food meal can contain up to 5,000 mg of sodium - more than double the daily recommended limit.
Asian food is a big offender, thanks to MSG and soy sauce. Another culprit: Pizza. When you order, ask for 1/2 the
cheese and more veggie toppings. And no matter where you're dining, ask your waiter about low-sodium options.
|
Sodium-rich Foods May Not Taste Salty at All
A grande Starbucks Java Chip Frappuccino has a whopping 300 mg of sodium, and a 24oz bottle of Propel Fitness
Water has 104 mg. Choose fresh vegetables whenever possible, if you do go for canned, buy ones that say "no salt added"
on the label, or rinse the contents under the tap to remove excess sodium.
|
Too Much Sodium Can Put Anyone's Health at Risk
Sodium causes fluid retention, which increases blood volume and requires the heart to pump harder to push it
through your arteries. Over time, this often leads to an increase in blood pressure, which damages artery walls and
makes them vulnerable to atherosclerosis (plaque buildup in the arteries), thus increasing the risk of having a heart attack
or stroke.
Flip Grip Triceps
How To Do It: Stand with legs together and with a slight bend forward. Palms face up and
extend back, on the return flip your palms and palms face down and extend. Watch the "wave backs" disappear with this exercise.
(as pictured).
NUTRITION NUGGET
Just because a food package features a picture of a particular fruit doesn't mean there's any of that fruit in the
product. Those chewy bits of fruit in Quaker "Strawberries & Cream" Instant Oatmeal are actually dehydrated apples dyed
red.
