Ingredients
1 each 12-pound (or larger) turkey
1 fresh rosemary stems
1 fresh sage leaves or stems
1 tsp poultry seasoning
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1 medium onion
1 large carrot
1 medium rib, celery
Directions
Wash your turkey and trim excess fat and giblets. Loosen the skin
from the turkey at the neck cavity to insert sage leaves. Press skin
to secure. Quarter onions, celery, and carrot and place in the open
cavity of the turkey. Sprinkle half of the poultry seasoning,
pepper, and salt mixture inside the turkey and the remainder on the
outside. Tuck in the turkey legs and place breast side up on a rack.
You can buy disposable aluminum racks in the grocery store. Spray
the turkey with a vegetable spray and cover loosely with foil. Bake
according to directions on the package your turkey came in. Remove
foil when 20-30 minutes of cooking time remains. After your turkey is
done, let it stand twenty minutes. Garnish with grapes and remainder
of sage and rosemary.

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) weight loss program is reliant on the glycaemic index, a list showing types of food and an indicator of the ease with which the carbs of the food gets converted to sugar in the dieters blood stream. The theory is that slow acting food types (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic score), suppress your appetite for longer and help to consume fewer food without being miserabl;e. It is also very good for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI food types are helpful in managing increases in glucose levels. Foods containing allyl sulfides ( includes pickled shallots, onions and green onion) The onion, leek and garlic range of vegetables is high in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe may be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer. Although there is not enough, hard medical proof present, allyl sulphides are also thought by many experts to aid in colds, sterilization and physical exhaustion. Foods containing allyl sulfides are low in calories, so should be included in every weight loss program. |
