I know it sounds like a crazy idea, maybe even a pretty bad idea but this healthy pizza with brussel sprouts and whole wheat dough was actually darn good.

I had a great time making this dish last night while my husband fed the baby. Total time to put baby to sleep 35 minutes. Total time to make this dish 30. Perfect match.
Even though it looks pretty, this is fundamentally a throw stuff in the pot dish, witch makes it fast and stress free. Scallops are basically seared in a little bit of oil for three minutes. The fennel and onion are cooked until tender and meet up with clam juice, wine and the cherry tomatoes for another 6-8 minutes to impart flavor and thicken the sauce. The scallops are sent back into the pot for another 2-3 minutes of cooking. And boom – healthy, delicious meal just in time for bleary eyed husband.
PS: The garlic toast – made simply by rubbing garlic onto great crusty bread, was a great way to sop up the extra sauce.
Here’s the original recipe from Real Simple.

Strike another victory for fast and healthy. This time with oven-roasted flounder (you could use any light white fish) laying on top of crispy bok choy and a light asian broth of soy sauce, rice vinegar, ginger, cilantro and lime.
Original recipe at Bon Appetit.

I know, it doesn’t really scream nutrition. But I like the Earth too, as you can see in this short clip of a web pilot called the Green Machine. The show was being developed at CBS News, but never quite got off the ground.

Jennifer Hudson looks amazing. Everyone agrees on that. But can she maintain the dramatic weight loss? Will her weight loss become compulsive or can she balance it in a healthy manner? Those are tough questions for anyone who has worked hard to lose so much weight.
Inside Edition and CBS News asked me what I thought.
