😋 Yum!
The method to increase resistant starch is helpful and not difficult to do. I appreciate the cheese that went into your potato salad, adding “pleasure” in addition to calcium. Being mindful of what we cook and how we eat helps with losing weight; The Buddha’s Diet by Zigmond and Cottrell helps, too, with weight loss by placing limits, not only on amount, but the time between our last meal of the day and breakfast the next day, a time of fasting. When my last meal of the day was at 3p and I didn’t eat till 6a the following morning, I lost weight readily (which I need to do again and with the help of your potato salad). Thanks.
Thank you for the receipe
