Many people simply skip breakfast in order to lose weight. This is actually a very unhealthy practice. The daily plan is in the morning. Breakfast is the most important meal during weight loss.

Breakfast can effectively reduce the feeling of hunger later in the day, which is conducive to sustained weight loss, and at the same time can provide major nutrients, which help improve metabolism.

Insist on eating breakfast every day not only has a regular schedule, but also has a high work efficiency, and the speed of losing weight is faster than the average person. This is because breakfast is an extremely critical meal to start and accelerate the metabolism of the day. It can help bile discharge, dilute blood concentration, increase blood sugar, and then give the body "energy" to consume calories. Those who successfully lose weight more than 14 kilograms and keep it for a year or longer often take breakfast as one of their important means to lose weight and maintain it.
For weight loss, eating is more important than exercise. As long as you eat the right food, you can lose weight slowly even if you don’t exercise. I have a friend who is a beauty after the 80s. I really have perseverance to lose weight. I usually love eating out. One of the girls insisted on cooking at home, and took advantage of the summer vacation to eat homemade cakes for 64 days and lost 14 kilograms easily. We were surprised, and friends asked her for advice.
The pie she ate was not mysterious, but with the help of corn. Corn is a very nutritious food, which can not only supplement the nutrients needed by the body, but also has a very good weight loss effect. Because the vitamin content in corn is very high, it is 5-10 times that of rice and wheat. Among all staple foods, corn has the highest nutritional value and health care effect. Therefore, eat more corn during the weight loss period to reduce the intake of other foods, which not only reduces calories, but also does not have to worry about insufficient nutrition. However, it is best to use fresh corn when losing weight. Fresh corn has much higher moisture, active substances, vitamins and other nutrients than old corn and corn flour.

There is also a very magical thing about corn kernels, which is corn germ. The germ of corn contains a lot of vitamin E and zeoflavone. Regular consumption can delay the aging of the human body and enhance the physical strength and endurance of the human body. When losing weight, use corn instead of other staple foods. There is no feeling of "starving" if you eat less. Compared with soybeans, wheat, and rice, corn has lower fat and protein content and higher carbohydrate content, so corn products are becoming more and more popular among people who exercise and lose weight.

But it also needs the right approach in order to exert the maximum weight loss effect of corn. Please take 5 minutes to make this delicious and weight-loss tortilla with me.

Ingredients

Corn Tortillas

1. The ingredients are ready, the fresher the corn is, the better, the fresh corn will be rich in juice when it is beaten, and you can put a few more without adding water.

2. Pour the yeast powder into a bowl and add a little warm water to melt. When you lose weight, your food intake is slightly less than normal. It is better to be full at 6-7 points per meal, so you should eat more nutritious food. It is best to eat some fermented pasta for breakfast. Unfermented foods such as cakes and noodles are more nutritious, because as a leavening agent, yeast not only changes the structure of the dough, but also makes them softer and more delicious, and at the same time greatly increases the nutritional value of steamed bread and bread.

Yeast is rich in vitamins, minerals and enzymes.
The protein contained in 1 kg of dry yeast is equivalent to the protein content of 5 kg of rice, 2 kg of soybeans or 2.5 kg of pork. Therefore, the nutrients contained in steamed buns and breads are 3 to 4 times higher than those in flatbreads and noodles, the protein is increased by nearly 2 times, and the feeling of fullness is strong.

3. After squeezing the corn juice, pour it into a large basin, pour the yeast water into it, add Arowana Oatmeal Flour, mix it with chopsticks to form a flocculent, and then knead it into a dough by hand.

4. Cover the kneaded dough with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator overnight for fermentation. The refrigerated fermentation is very suitable for office workers who have no time in the morning. After 12-72 hours of low-temperature fermentation, the steamed pasta tastes softer and smoother. , It tastes much better than the pasta that is fermented directly.

5. After the dough is fermented, take it out and place it on a panel sprinkled with dry powder to exhaust air, and roll it into a dough sheet with a rolling pin.

6. Roll up from top to bottom.

7. Cut into syrup.

8. Put each small potion in the palm of your hand and round it and press it down slightly, and the dough will be ready.

9. Brush the non-stick pan with oil, put the dough into the pan, and fry on medium-low heat until the bottom turns slightly yellow.

10. Turn it over and fry until both sides are golden brown, and the body of the cake is obviously round and fluffy. Press it lightly with your fingers and quickly rebound to indicate that it is cooked. Eat it while it's hot, it's so fragrant.

Tips:
For this tortilla, I didn’t completely use corn juice to make the noodles. I added a little water. However, the more corn juice, the yellower and more beautiful the fried tortillas, and the higher the nutritional value. If it is not used for weight loss, you can Add a little sugar.
With the refrigerated fermentation method, it can be fried directly in the morning, which can save a lot of time. Moreover, the pasta made by the low-temperature and long-term fermentation method has a more delicate taste. Friends who like to eat pasta can try it.
Although corn can lose weight, there is a lot of flour after all, so don't overdo it.
