Straight to the heart

Straight to the heartChef Doug Essers donned his tall white hat and fired up an electric wok for a heart-healthy cooking demonstration at Vista Medical Center East, Illinois. The hospital's executive chef tossed fresh zucchini, broccoli, mushrooms and carrots into hot olive oil flavored with a little crushed garlic and audience members eagerly sampled the low-fat, sodium-free Herb Garlic Vegetable Stir Fry over rice. Essers, who was hired by Vista to take "cafeteria food to the next level" shared his top two tips for healthy eating: "Take the salt shaker off the table and read labels carefully." - Lake County News Sun
