It's All About Presentation.

Serve your dinner on a salad plate.  Use a small bowl for your dessert.  Set your soup bowl on a bigger plate and dust with herbs.  Your mind will have the sensation of having a bigger meal, and if you eat slowly, you will be satisfied with less

    1. It simply makes the dish "pop" so it appears less like a little bowl of soup on a big plate and more like a gourmet meal. Basically "garnish". http://www.eventtrender.com/blog/2010/07/using-fresh-spring-herbs-for-a-garnish-by-e-trender-sue-keels----we-use-many-fresh-locally-grown-herbs-at-the-hotel-our-exec.html

Thanks for visiting. Having been fortunate enough not to have to diet as a young woman - hitting middle age to find my Metabolism moved to Aruba and didn't even send a postcard was a rude awakening. Thanks for sharing the fun and the pain of getting back in shape. Note: If you are a stranger and include a link in your comment - it will not be posted, to ensure no SPAM or viruses are shared.
