Chocolate Covered Kiwis🥝🥝🥝
3 Ingredients, all the flavor. I am in a constant struggle with sugar, good and bad. I can avoid processed sugars for the most part, but sugary natural fruits call to me. Most of my favorites are high in carbs and full of delicious sugars. I’m in the process of approaching a keto-friendly…

Misfits Markets 🍊🥒🥕🥬

The strongest muscle I have against my cravings is my mind and I’ll admit – I don’t always win – i’m the MVP of justification. I came across a super easy solution that also…

Agaricus Bisporus – The Portabella mushroom

Add the right combination of spices and you’ve got yourself a fatless delicacy. Why do I love these? A typical container of mushrooms, which is about three ounces only contains 22 calories…

Sprouting Brussels!
These were my dinner last night. Fresh Brussels Sprouts are FAT free, and only contain 35 fat free calories per serving. I steamed then added a pinch of season, dash of pepper and a pad of shed spread.
