I believe it was Winnow who recently called me a 'health nut'. The food in this post is about as healthy as I go, and I wouldn't even be posting it if I thought there was a lack of flavor. Men's Health magazine had an article this month called, The Food a Man Needs. The article has 50 recipes which are quick to make, and healthy. I was seriously debating typing them into a post if I wasn't able to find the article on their website, but fortunately it's there. There are tags under the title of each meal that give you some insight into preparation and difficulty. If any of you decide to try any of them out, do the rest of us a favor and let us know which recipe you tried, how it went, how it tasted and any tips for making it in the future.
Without further ado, the article.
