When I started my cinnamon recipes section month and a half ago I didn’t expect so many people would show interest in it. Now a few weeks later I shall continue with more cinnamon recipes for tasty and healthy desserts.

Cinnamon Oranges

This is a very simple dessert that can be prepared easily any time of the year. Takes only 10 minutes to prepare and serve. As you might be guessing oranges taste best in the winter when they are at their peak, hence the cinnamon orange dessert will have better flavor if prepared in the winter. Lucky you, cause you can try it immediately and it will taste best.

Ingredients:
4 servings

4 navel oranges
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon sugar or (1-2) tablespoons honey
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preparation:

Peel the oranges and remove the white pith from them. Use sharp knife to cut each orange into 5 or 6 slices and arrange them on 4 plates. Mix the orange and lemon juices, add the sugar and cinnamon and whisk. Poor 1 spoon over each orange slice pile and you are ready to serve.

Variation:

Instead of 1 tablespoon of sugar you can use (1-2) tablespoons of honey.

Honestly since honey and cinnamon for weight loss has become my most popular post, I think cinnamon and honey have become my little obsession (in the good meaning of the word).

Every time I was looking for cinnamon recipes I turned out that almost all cinnamon recipe also needed honey. Strange isn’t it, but having in mind the great weight loss mixture they make, it is not so surprising after all.

Well, this is exactly what happened the last time I was searching for cinnamon recipes, in particularly for cinnamon baked apples:

I found a few very similar recipes all with the same ingredients but with different preparation methods. Anyway, I just though finally I found a recipe with cinnamon and no honey, when all of a sudden it turned out that the last recipe needed a honey topping just before serving. It sounded so tempting and easy that I not only had great time preparing them, but also had an amazing experience eating them

The great news for all dieting people is that you get a nutrition bonus with every baked apple you eat  20% of your average daily fiber intake. This makes this delicious side dish a great source of fibers. But that’s not all – you also get the cinnamon and honey mixture (not as a drink this time). Well, the amounts of honey and cinnamon here are way lower than the amounts in the drink, but yet they work the same way, after all the cinnamon, honey and apple are all healthy, right

Here is the cinnamon honey apple recipe:

Ingredients
4 servings

4 apples (large red ones would be great)
4 tablespoons brown sugar
Ground cinnamon for sprinkle
Water – small amount

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 350F ~ 180C.

Wash the apples and cut a hole in top of each apple (remove the core with a knife or an apple corer and leave the bottom intact). Clean out the hole and fill each one with 1 tbsp of brown sugar.

Transfer the apples to a baking dish and sprinkle the cinnamon on top of each apple. Poor small amount of water in the baking dish – this will keep apples from drying up during the baking process. Do not cover the top of the pan.

Bake for 30 minutes or until apples get soft.

Serving

Remove from oven. Let them cool for a while and then drop a teaspoon of honey on top of each apple just before serving. Enjoy!

Variation

You can use wine instead of water. Cover the pan with foil and bake for 1 hour.

My opinion

I think one hour for covered with foil pan is too much time, but after all I haven’t tried this one. 30 minutes in non-covered pan were just enough for my cinnamon baked apples to get soft and ready to eat.

And what is your opinion? Are you willing to try this recipe?

Finally, a weight loss product that successfully binds fats and sheds pounds quickly and safely. No efforts are required from your side; just don’t forget to take your pill after each meal.

Proactol is a new weight loss product – fat binder – clinically proven to reduce nearly 30% of your fat intake, if you take 2 pills after every meal. It is 100% natural and organic product, containing a patented Proactol fibre complex.

Clinical tests and researches have proven that Proactol fat binder successfully suppresses appetite, reduces food cravings, increases energy levels and the most important benefit – reduces over 27% of your dietary fat intake. Proactol also reduces cholesterol levels and calorie intake, thus you start losing weight and feeling better and in shape again.

Diet experts and doctors highly recommended it. No wonder, though. While other weight loss products either burn fat only, or reduce cholesterol and calorie intake only, or suppress appetite and food cravings, Proactol combines all these benefits in one single product. You don’t need a bunch of different diet product to do each one of these, Proactol fat binder does them all – the complete system for weight loss.

If you are searching for an easy to follow diabetic diet plan, then you are one of the few people searching for diabetic diets online. It’s not surprising, though…

Perhaps you either haven’t come across the Medifast Plus for Diabetics diet plan – the Diabetic 5 & 1 plan, or …

because diabetes is a serious disease and people diagnosed Type 2 diabetes are more likely to use conventional medication and listen to their doctors’ advices.

Patients diagnosed Type 2 diabetes prefer to see face to face the diabetes specialists recommending them the diabetic diet menus and meal plans that they should follow, instead of reading some online reviews for miraculous and expensive diabetes cures.

It’s understandable why people don’t trust too much to the information on that topic – it’s unreliable and makes it really hard to separate the truth from the trash.

The idea of the high protein diets is to take about 50%-70% of proteins, very low fats and carbs.

Why is it so important to take more proteins when dieting?

Proteins are about 15% of the body mass of an average person. Our body tissue is built of protein molecules. Muscles, cartilages, ligaments, skin and hair – these are all mainly protein materials. You must have proteins in your diet, otherwise instead of fat you will lose muscle mass. (more…)
