    Balanced U: Spotlight on Project Clean PlateBalanced U is Chartwells’ national award winning program on health, wellness and sustainability.Sustainability initiatives include eating green, building green, returning green, and running green.As part of Chartwells’ run green campaign, we are dedicated to creating efficiency in the dining hallsand educating our staff and students on how to play their part.Project Clean Plate is one of the programs used to encourage students to reduce food waste withincampus dining. Each year on college campuses, students throw away hundreds of tons of food. Thislarge volume of solid waste not only adds to the environmental impact of a community’s landfill, butmore important, this waste of food reminds us that we must do more to help solve global hunger.Through goal-setting and charitable contributions, Project Clean Plate helps raise social awarenessof these problems among students.

    The Positive PulseWith Laura Vollink, RD LD, Chartwells Dietitian

    Fad Diets: Separating Fact From FictionWith all the focus on weight in our society, weight loss plans or products that promise dramatic weight loss resultsor claim to instantly improve your health appeal to the masses. The bottom line is simple though- if a diet orproduct sounds too good to be true, it probably is!So, how do we know the difference between a fad diet and a diet that will help us sustain health over the long term?First, let’s get rid of the word ‘diet.’ Diet implies a short term fix- who wants to be on a diet for the rest of theirlives? We need to look at making positive behavior changes such as adding exercise, or cutting back on portion size.To help identify and avoid fad diets, here are a few claims to watch out for:

    Weight loss claims. Slow and steady weight loss is more likely to last than dramatic weight changes. Bewary of diets that claim you will lose 5-10 pounds in one week, most of this loss will be from water weight.Healthy weight loss is about .5 to 1pound per week.Limitations. Avoid diets that eliminate or severely restrict entire food groups or macronutrients. Byrestricting these foods, you are missing out on critical nutrients you would be getting from a balanced diet.Rigid menus. Following rigid meal plans can be overwhelming, limiting, and not very practical. Think aboutsocial situations such as going out to eat with family and friends. Does this diet allow you to easily do that?Investment. Be wary if a product requires you to spend a lot of money.If the plan claims to be successful only if you attend a seminar, take apill, or purchase prepackaged meals, the diet is more likely to be amoney making gimmick rather than have your best interests at heart.No need to exercise. Regular physical activity is essential for goodhealth and weight management. Diet is only part of the path toweight loss. Find physical activities that you enjoy and aim for 30 to60 minutes of activity on most days of the week.Testimonials. Most often testimonials come from clients or ‘experts’ in weight loss or nutrition. Keep in mind these people are probablybeing paid to advertise the plan or product.

    With any new ‘diet’ ask yourself, ‘can I eat this way for the rest of my life?’ Ifthe answer is no, the diet is not for you.

    Balanced BiteThere is no miracle weight loss plan or pill. Look to slowly incorporate physical activity into your life and find

    ways to change what and how much you are eating.

    THE SCOOP I CHARTWELLS AT NORTH CENTRAL COLLEGE

    Memorial Day Recipe

    Rocky Road BrowniesMakes: 16 (2-inch) browniesActive Time: 20 minutesTotal Time: 3 hours (including cooling time)

    Ingredients 1 cup less 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour1/4 teaspoon baking powder1/4 teaspoon salt4 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter

    1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoapowder

    1 1/4 cups sugar1 large egg2 large egg whites2 teaspoons vanilla extract8 regular-size marshmallows2/3 cup coarsely chopped walnuts or pecans1/3 cup chopped bittersweet or semisweet chocolate or large chocolate chips

    Preparation 1 Line the bottom and sides of an 8-inch-square baking pan with parchment paper or foil coated with cooking

    spray. (Leave enough of an overhang to be able to lift the brownies out of the pan later with the liner.) If youdon’t plan to let the batter rest at the end of Step 3 before baking, position a rack in center of oven and preheatto 350°F.

    2 Thoroughly whisk flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl.3 Melt butter in a medium saucepan until sizzling. Remove from the heat and stir in cocoa, then sugar. (The

    mixture will look like a mass of very dark brown sugar.) Add egg, egg whites and vanilla. Stir briskly until smoothand glossy. Stir in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Then stir briskly for about 50 strokes. Scrape thebatter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. The batter will be very shallow in the pan. If you have time,cover the pan and refrigerate for a few hours or up to 12 hours. (This hydrates the cocoa powder and flour andbrings all the flavors into sharper focus.) Remove from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before baking; preheat

    oven to 350°F.4 Quarter marshmallows with an oiled knife. Distribute the pieces over the batter, pressing them in. Distributenuts and chocolate (or chips) around the marshmallows.

    5 Bake the brownies until the marshmallows are golden brown, 25 to 35 minutes. (If you can find a place to testfor doneness where there is no melted chocolate or marshmallow, a toothpick should come out with somemoist, gooey batter clinging to it. Brownies in a metal pan will bake faster than those in a glass pan; if you’reunsure, bake a few minutes longer to make sure the brownies are done in the middle.) Let cool completely inthe pan on a wire rack for about 2 hours. Lift the ends of the pan liner and transfer to a cutting board. Cut into16 brownies.
