BUCKWHEAT:
Is great for Pancakes, bread, cereal, and soups or alone as a grain dish commonly called KASHA. It has 155 calories per cooked cup. Diet including buckwheat lead to excellent blood sugar regulation, resistance to diabetes and lowered cholesterol levels. You cook buckwheat the same way you would rice or barley. Bring two to three cups of water to boil, add the gain, cover the pan, turn down the heat and simmer for 20 minutes or until the water is absorbed.
CABBAGE:
This Eastern Europe staple is a true wonder food. There are only 33 calories in a cup of cooked shredded cabbage, and it retains all its nutritional goodness no matter how long you cook it. Eating cabbage raw (18 calories per shredded cup), cooked (27 calories per drained cup) or coleslaw (calories depends on dressing) only once a week is enough to protect against colon cancer and the lowest death rates overall.
