A Heart-Smart Start to Your Day
You probably know that a breakfast high in saturated fat and cholesterol isn’t good for your body, especially your heart. But you may want some heart-healthy choices besides the old standbys – such as oatmeal and high-fiber cereal.
For a fresh, filling and heart-smart breakfast, try our Multi-Grain Pancakes. With whole wheat flour, oats and cornmeal, plus skim milk and fat-free yogurt, they’re a terrific alternative to regular pancakes.
To quench your thirst – and squeeze in a serving of fruit – sip on an Orange Pineapple Shake. Made with nonfat yogurt, calcium-fortified orange juice and unsweetened pineapple juice, this fat-free shake is sweet and satisfying – a perfect complement to the pancakes.
You can find even more healthy recipes on the new Jefferson Hospital Health eCooking site.
