Easy Dinner Recipes Help You Keep New Year’s Resolutions
at Your Hospital Name
Go to www.yourhospitalwebsite.com

Town, State – It’s that time of year when people across America wake up from turkey-induced naps and realize that maybe they weren’t as true to their diets as they should have been. According to USA.gov, “lose weight” is the country’s most popular New Year’s resolution. Couple that with recent studies calling obesity the “biggest health threat to America,” the New Year is a great time to get a fresh start on cutting fat, calories and cholesterol.

We all know, however, that promises are easier to make than to keep. That’s why this month, Your Hospital shows how to make easy dinner recipes full of lean protein but free of excess oils and fats. Six new recipes, including two new video recipes, can be found at www.YourHospitalWebsite.com:
· Video Recipe: How to Cook Salmon
· Video Recipe: How to Make Salsa Verde
· Guilt Free Mac and Cheese
· Beef Stew
· Chicken Marengo
In the first video, Chef Mitch Prensky, of Philadelphia’s widely lauded Supper restaurant, gives a tutorial on healthy ways to bake, pan sear and grill salmon steaks, which are delicious lean meats full of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. In the second video, Prensky creates a salsa verde out of jalapeños, parsley, capers and fresh herbs. This tangy, mild salsa can be used atop fish or chicken, or to create your own healthy dish.

People Are Looking
According to Google Trends, the popularity of healthy recipes skyrockets during the end of December and beginning of January. More people search the web in January for ways to maintain a healthy body weight or to introduce more nutritious dinner options for their families than at any other time of the year. Web-based cooking shows, especially those featuring step-by-step instruction on how to cook basic dishes, have become increasingly popular on the web as well. The Health eCooking Show® and Your Hospital Name provide a massive database of dietitian-approved, chef-tested recipes and videos.

Easy Does It
Finding healthy recipes online is great. Making them is another thing altogether. This month’s healthy recipes were created with time-constrained and budget-strapped families in mind. Some recipes, such as Chicken Marengo, offer a complex taste in an easy, one-pot dinner that you set on the stove and don’t touch again until its finished. Guilt Free Mac & Cheese takes an all-time American favorite and makes it with a combination of low-fat cheeses, whole wheat noodles and household spices to create a taste your family won’t easily ignore. Oven Fried Chicken is much healthier than traditional fried chicken, but is still finger-lickin’ good. Beef Stew is a hearty “set and forget” Crock-Pot recipe, perfect for cold January days but with half as much sodium as store-bought brands.
