Re: Wouldn't you call the MC anti-Atkins?
I am a BIG fan of brown rice! I actually purchased a rice cooker-and it makes all the difference.
As far as sushi goes-(and I'm a huge fan)
I usually opt for sashimi... (no rice at all)
If I purchase it from Whole Foods, on the go- I'll get it with brown rice.
After my last MC- I stayed away from wheat, sugar, dairy, meat, chicken, fish (once a week)- tuna among others have extraordinarily high levels of mercury in them- and have been known to cause cancer as well as birth defects... (nice).
I LOVE QUINOA- it's a grain- high in protein- and when cooked correctly- tastes like a pasta...
I throw in some diced sauteed veggies with garlic and onion (olive oil of course) and I could LIVE off of it.
quinoa and brown rice are the two grains that I like-
the others I get from cereal- nothing processed-
Ezekiel bread- made from sprouted grains is good to.
Hope this helps!
