\/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nOne of my favourite things to get when we are eating out is a Chicken Sandwich or Burger. \u0026nbsp; Yes, I know\u0026nbsp; . . .\u0026nbsp; we eat chicken all the time at home, and dollars to donuts I eat it again when we are out and about.\u0026nbsp; I am just a boring person I guess!\u0026nbsp; Chicken Sandwiches or Burgers can often be very high in fat and calories however and so today I created one which is delicious and a little bit healthier than normal, well certainly healthier than those breaded deep fried ones you get in the restaurants . . .\u0026nbsp; and not only that, but it is pretty economical as well.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Ca name='more'\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003Cimg alt=\" photo

piece.\u0026nbsp; I seasoned them with some salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika for a bit of a snap and then grilled each piece in my grill pan.\u0026nbsp; No fat needed.\u003Cbr

choose whole wheat buns for these because we are trying to get more fibre into our diets and whole wheat is the way to go.\u0026nbsp; You can spread them with a bit of garlic butter before toasting,

created a tasty Parmesan and garlic mayo to dress the sandwich, using a small amount of low fat mayo along with a tiny bit of grated Parmesan.\u0026nbsp; Parmesan has such strong flavours that a little bit goes a very long way.\u0026nbsp; Other than that I added some fresh spinach leaves for added colour, fibre and iron.\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp; Oh and a slice of emmethaler (swiss) cheese is

Comfort foods often take us back to happy, secure times.“The textures of food can put us in the right frame of mind. Smooth, velvety textures are very pleasurable.  Aroma and flavour can also contribute to the romance. Our increased romantic response may be associated with the psychology of a memory triggering physiological response rather than the actual sensory experience of the food.   A few foods, such as truffles, do contain compounds that are pheromones. “\u003C\/i\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cspan style=\"font-size: large;\"\u003ETop six foods for love:\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nSCALLOPS: Offer sensory attributes; their texture, taste and aroma, which suggest sexuality and help put you in the right frame of mind for romance.
