© March of Dimes Foundation, 2008

Most pregnant women need 300 extra calories per day to support a baby’s growth, so eat smart and make healthy food choices. Try to eat foods from each of the five food groups every day. They provide important nutrients that you and your baby need. Be sure to watch your serving sizes; you may be eating more than you need to. And remember, fatty foods (like doughnuts and chips) and sweets (like sodas, cookies and candy) don’t give your baby enough of what he needs to grow. So try to follow these guidelines.

GRAINS: 6 OUNCES PER DAY 1 ounce of grains is equal to: 1 slice bread 1 cup ready-to-eat cereal 1/2 cup cooked rice, pasta or cereal 1 small pancake (4 1/2” in diameter) 1 small tortilla (6” in diameter) VEGETABLES: 2 1/2 CUPS PER DAY 1 cup of vegetables is equal to: 1 cup raw or cooked vegetables 1 cup vegetable juice 2 cups raw, leafy greens 1 medium baked potato (2 1/2” to 3” in diameter; go easy on the butter, bacon bits and sour cream) FRUITS: 1 1/2 TO 2 CUPS PER DAY 1/2 cup of fruit is equal to: 1/2 cup 100% fruit juice 1/2 cup fresh, frozen or canned fruit 1/2 a fruit (small orange, apple or banana) 1/4 cup dried fruit 16 grapes MILK PRODUCTS: 3 CUPS PER DAY 1 cup of milk products is equal to: 1 cup milk 1 cup yogurt 1 1/2 ounces natural cheese (examples: cheddar, parmesan) 2 ounces processed cheese (example: American)

TAKE FOLIC ACID Folic acid is a B vitamin that helps prevent birth defects of the brain and spinal cord (called neural tube defects). All women of childbearing age should take a multivitamin with 400 micrograms of folic acid every day before pregnancy and during early pregnancy, as part of a healthy diet.

Your healthy diet should include foods that are good sources of folic acid and folate (the form of folic acid that occurs naturally in food). Examples are: fortified breakfast cereals, enriched grain products, beans, leafy green vegetables, and orange juice.

PROTEINS: 5 TO 5 1/2 OUNCES PER DAY 1 ounce of protein is equal to: 1 tablespoon peanut butter 1/4 cup cooked dried beans 1 ounce lean meat, poultry or fish 1 egg 1/2 cup nuts (12 almonds, 24 pistachios)

F E AT U R E

butter and nuts are also good, if you aren’t allergic to them.

Liquids: Drink at least six to eight glasses of water, juice or milk every day.

Vitamins: Take a multivitamin or prenatal vitamin every day. Ask your health care provider if you need to take an iron or calcium supplement, too.

Caffeine: Limit the caffeine you get each day to 200 milligrams. That’s about the amount in one 12-ounce cup of coffee. Caffeine amounts in coffee depend on the brand you drink and how it’s made.

So check the label on the package, or ask at your coffee shop. Instead of drinking regular coffee, try coffee that’s decaffeinated (has a smaller amount of caffeine). Caffeine is also found in tea, chocolate, soda and some over-the-counter medicine. Read labels on food, drinks and medicine to know how much caffeine you’re getting.

FOODS TO AVOID Some foods can make you and your baby sick. Avoid these foods that can cause food poisoning or contain harmful chemicals.

• Raw fish, especially shellfish.

• Soft-scrambled eggs and foods made with raw or lightly cooked eggs.

• Unpasteurized juices.

• Raw sprouts, especially alfalfa sprouts.

• Unpasteurized soft cheeses, such as brie, feta, Camembert, Roquefort, queso blanco, queso fresco and Panela • Unpasteurized milk and any foods made from it • Herbal supplements and teas • Fish that can be high in mercury, like shark, swordfish, king mackerel and tilefish. It’s OK for pregnant women to eat a limited amount of fish that have small amounts of mercury.

You can eat up to 12 ounces of these fish a week. The 12 ounces can include: shrimp, salmon, pollock, catfish and canned light tuna. However, don’t eat more than 6 ounces of albacore (white tuna) in one week. Always check with your local health department before you eat any fish you catch yourself.

• Raw or undercooked meat, poultry, seafood and hot dogs. Deli meats (such as ham and bologna) can cause food poisoning.

Avoid them or reheat them before eating.

• Refrigerated pates, meat spreads or smoked seafood. Canned and shelf-stable versions are safe.

Meals: Eat four to six smaller meals a day instead of three bigger ones to help relieve the heartburn and discomfort you feel as your baby grows bigger.

NONFOODS Never eat nonfood items like clay, starch, paraffin or coffee grounds. Eating these things can cause problems for you and your baby.

Snacks: Cheese, yogurt, fruit and vegetables are good, healthy snacks. Peanut

Cook Like A Pro This Holiday Season

Salmon filet Wasabi paste Honey Rice vinegar Truffle oil Cracked pepper Kosher salt Mixed baby greens Julienned carrots Mung bean sprouts Toasted almonds

2 pounds pumpkin, diced 2 tablespoons canola oil 2 pounds (about 4-5) Idaho potatoes, diced 2 ounces butter 2 cups heavy cream Salt & pepper, to taste Coat pumpkin with canola oil, salt and pepper. Lay out in an even layer on a cookie sheet. Bake in a 450 degree oven until tender. Cover potatoes with cold water. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until you can pierce easily with a paring knife.

Drain potatoes and let sit for about 5 minutes. Heat cream and butter in the same pan you cooked the potatoes in. Add potatoes and roasted pumpkin to hot cream/butter mixture. Mash and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Note: For this recipe, you need to scale out the pumpkin and potato after they have been peeled and diced.

Mix wasabi paste with a small amount of honey and coat salmon. Allow to marinate overnight in the refrigerator. Lightly grill or pan sear salmon to medium rare and let cool. Arrange baby greens carrot, bean sprouts and almonds on plate. Drizzle truffle oil and rice vinegar over greens, sprinkle with salt and pepper and place salmon filet on the side of the greens.

Spanish Garlic-Shrimp Sauce

By Jason Clark of BIN112

3 tablespoons olive oil 3 cloves garlic, sliced 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes 2 bay leaves 8 medium shrimp, peeled, de-veined and halved lengthwise 2 tablespoons dry sherry 2 lemons, juiced 3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Sun-Dried Tomato Basil Orzo

By Chuck Hanford of Stax Peppermill

3 tablespoons olive oil 1 small white onion, finely diced 1/2 cup fresh basil, chefinade (ribbon-cut) or 1 tbsp dried 1 teaspoon minced garlic 1/4 cup julienne sun-dried tomatoes 4 cups chicken stock 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream 1 pound orzo Salt & pepper, to taste

To make the pico de gallo, dice 3 of the tomatoes and a little bit of red onion (remember, you can always add more but if the onion flavor is too strong, it is impossible to take it out). Finely chop half of the cilantro and mince a seeded jalapeno.

Squeeze half a lime into the tomatoes (more if you like) and mix everything together with a little salt and pepper to taste. Reserve in the refrigerator for later.

To make the guacamole, mash the pulp of the avocados and add 1 small tomato.

Finely chop the other half of the cilantro, add some garlic salt and cumin (remember, you can always add more) and the juice of 1 lime. Mix well and cover air-tight in the refrigerator for later.

Light the charcoal on one side of the grill.

Allow the grill to get very hot. Slice fish into strips (three or four per person) and toss with a little vinaigrette and seasoned salt. Grill on one side for 1 minute and flip over. Then move the fish to the side of the grill with no direct heat and cover. Cook until it is just barely done. Remove fish from grill and drizzle with fresh squeezed lime.

Split Creek Chèvre Cheesecake

By Chef David Guas of Damgoodsweet Consulting Group, LLC

Chèvre Cheesecake 4 ounces cream cheese 2 cups heavy cream 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt

12 ounces fresh chèvre 2 cups crème fraiche 3 sheets gelatin 1/2 vanilla bean, split & scraped

Pepper-Port Syrup 3 cups port wine 1/4 cup light corn syrup

1 tablespoon whole peppercorns, roughly cracked

Pecan-Rosemary Brittle 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup toasted pecans (roughly chopped) 1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons water 2 teaspoons finely chopped rosemary

Cheesecake: Add cream cheese and chèvre to large heat-proof bowl and place above a pot of simmering water. Let cheese melt.

Add heavy cream, crème fraiche, sugar and vanilla bean seeds to mixing bowl. Whip on high until medium peaks form, about one minute. Reserve. Submerge gelatin sheets one at a time in a bowl of ice water and allow each sheet to soften or “bloom” (approx. 5 minutes). Remove each sheet from water and squeeze out excess water. Add gelatin to softened cheese and whisk until dissolved and smooth (note: cheese must be hot before gelatin is added).

Remove bowl from above simmering water. Add salt. Whisk approx. one cup of reserved cream mixture into warm cheese.

Fold in remaining whipped mixture using a rubber spatula to fully incorporate it. Immediately portion batter into twelve 6-oz. glass cups or a highball glass, filling each about two-thirds full.

Using a towel between the bowls and the countertop, gently tap the glasses to settle the filling. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours prior to serving.

Syrup: Place all ingredients in 2-quart saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until mixture is reduced by onequarter. Remove from heat and strain. Let mixture cool to room temperature. Finished syrup should have the consistency of honey.

Brittle: Combine the sugar with the water in a small sauce pan and cook on medium-high heat until the mixture becomes medium amber in color.

Remove from the heat and add the nuts, rosemary and the salt. Stir just to mix with a high heat rubber spatula or wooden spoon, then pour the hot mixture onto a silicone baking mat (silpat) and allow the brittle to cool (approx. 20 to 30 minutes). Using a rolling pin, crack up the pieces of the hardened brittle by rolling over it until a coarse grind is achieved (as uniform as possible). You may store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

To Assemble: Remove the portioned cheesecake from the refrigerator and drizzle a tablespoon or so of the port syrup over the top. Finish the dish with a tablespoon of the ground brittle. Serve immediately with a spoon. Serves 12.

DIGITAL Charter customers can expect no disruption with upcoming broadcast conversion

F

For part of each work day, Charles Franklin’s role shifts subtly between salesman and educator. His job on the showroom floor now includes correcting public misconceptions and debunking misinformation.

“There’s a lot of confusion on the part of customers themselves,” says Franklin, sales manager of the local Tweeter home entertainment store.

The source of the confusion is a federal mandate calling for conversion to digital television broadcasting this February 17, 2009.

The good news for Charter Communications customers is they don’t need to do a thing. The deadline will come and go seamlessly, without them having to lift a finger or spend a dime extra.

“This is all going to really happen backstage to our customers,” says Jim Corrin, Charter’s director of government relations.

That’s because Charter long ago made the investment in digital technology that will pay even greater dividends starting in February. Existing customers won’t have to buy new televisions or worry about disruption of their service.

The format change is the result of a law passed by Congress in the 1990s requiring full-power television broadcast stations to convert from analog to digital signals by 2009. Most are already broadcasting both, with the analog version set to disappear next year.

The goal is to free up part of the available broadcast spectrum for use by public safety services, such as police, fire and ambulance. Pat Hayes, Charter’s regional director of technical operations,

evolution

says the existing system’s vulnerability was revealed when emergency teams responding to the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York weren’t able to communicate with one another.

But the mandate will also allow the Federal Communications Commission to auction off some of the spectrum to companies that wish to offer new digital services. That decision is likely to give consumers more programming choices.

The conversion is certain to revolutionize television viewing habits.

The sharper images, improved sound quality and greater capacity of today’s digital technology have become the industry gold standard for home entertainment.

But that doesn’t necessarily mean Americans are keeping up with the learning curve.

Franklin reports his customers often have difficulty distinguishing among the various types of television technology. He’s taken to comparing it to the three grades of gas sold at service stations, with analog being the least powerful at 87 octane, digital at 89 and HD at 93. (The law is forcing retailers to phase out analog TV sales so they won’t be an option much longer.)

Franklin says the technological complexity has made customers more cautious. Where decisions were once made in a single visit, now they tend to come and go several times before buying a television.

When they do finally reach for their wallets, the average person is spending $1,000 for a 42-inch digital screen.

Franklin says the same set would have cost $8,000-$9,000 five years ago.

But confusion is also being caused by some retailers, who either by deceit or honest error have persuaded customers they must buy a new digital television by next year. And that’s simply not true.

A digital-to-analog converter box – a device that makes DTV signals viewable on an analog set – is a onetime purchase; expect to pay from $40-$70 at select consumer electronics retailers. To help defray the cost, the Federal Government is offering U.S. households up to two $40 coupons to be used toward the purchase of certified

converter boxes.

For information or to request your coupons, call 1-888-DTV-2009 (1-888-3882009); visit online at www.DTV2009.gov; apply by mail at PO Box 2000, Portland OR 97208; or fax 1-877-DTV-4ME2 (1877-388-4632). Deaf or hearing-impaired callers may dial 1-877-530-2634 (TTY).

Coupons are free, but the supply is limited. Applications will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis through March 31, 2009.

The coupons expire 90 days after they are issued – and cannot be re-issued – so it’s important to review your information packet as soon as it comes in the mail.

Special converter boxes are available priced between $40 and $70 to convert the digital signal from a TV antenna back into analog format.

The U.S. Department of Commerce is distributing coupons valued at $40 each to defray that expense.

Still, there’s an easier – and more entertaining – way to navigate the digital conversion. “The simplest way to take care of matters is to become a Charter customer,” says Corrin.

With Charter, you’ll be able to access the cable provider’s all-star line up of television and movie channels as well as its premium pay-per-view and on-demand movies and sports programming.

Franklin recommends consumers use the existing conversion equipment as a buffer to insulate them from impulsive purchases. “You don’t have to rush and go out and buy a TV,” he says. “Do your due diligence.”
