getting healthy

For people like me who love to cook "gourmet", it's not easy to try and prepare healthy food. What does healthy mean? Less dairy, meat, sugar, bread... in other words, less of all the good stuff. It's tough, because after all of the effort that cooking takes, I want it to taste delicious! I secretly stick pads of butter on vegetables before they go to table. I reach for the salt too many times. I sneak bacon into dishes. I do enjoy health food for it's vitality and simplicity. It's just that I get used to a certain style of cooking, and it's hard to change. Dinner last night was baked halibut with herbs and lemon (and butter), blanched broccoli and plain brown rice. It was very good.
