In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy share their low cal avocado mayo recipe. Mayonnaise is a delicious must have condiment for some people (and repulsive to the Fat Guy). So Dr Fitness decided to try and create a healthier mayo. Mix butter milk with olive oil, some hot chili oil, avocado and lime – blend thoroughly. This concoction has about 25 calories instead of the 100 calories normal mayo has and this stuff has a bit of kick as a bonus. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy share a favorite penne pasta recipe. Start with a box of whole wheat penne pasta – then cook until it’s almost done – but not quite finished – this is more art than science. Now in a pan stir fry up some veggies like spinach, sun dried tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic, olives and pine nut. Now toss in the pasta and mix together for a little while longer. Remember use more spinach than you think you should because it virtually disappears when you cook it. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.
