How are we doing that January slope? Foolishly, next week we will get fully into the second half of the first month of the year, although we still have a bit of a Christmas hangover. No matter how faithful we are until San Antón, Easter is -in Murcia things can be extended to La Candelaria-, the body asks us healthier dishesbalanced and simple.
Just as nougat returned a month ago, now we get tired of hearing and reading the same stories about why we have supposedly gained weight or whether losing weight and getting fit is among the good intentions more repeated. Nothing new under the sun, we are animals of habit.
Direct to the Palate
These are the three best diets to lose weight (and they have been for many years)
There is nothing wrong with wanting to lose weight at this time, as long as we focus it towards adopt healthy habits in the long term and not thinking about extreme diets doomed to fail. In any case, in our weekly menu today we propose generally healthy and balanced recipes, most of them very simple and very appetizing for this season. We can eat lighter without ceasing to nourish ourselves well and enjoying in the table.
