Some store bought nutrition bars may not be very good quality when it comes to the ingredients and your health and when they are good quality they can be a bit expensive. You’ll want the right stuff for your body! Check out at the ingredient list as well as have a good understanding of why you’re eating one. People watching their diets, athletes, and those who are constantly eating on the run all have a different purpose in eating a nutrition bar. When you’re out and about and your blood sugar drops eating one of these little power bites is much better than then going through the Drive Thru or grabbing a sugar filled candy bar! Organic ingredients are not necessary for nutrition bars but we like eating organic whenever possible and that’s usually most of the time.
Lower Sugar Zucchini Bread
Oh my this Zucchini bread is so moist and delicious there won’t be a morsel left I promise! What a great way to get your kids, little and big to eat their veggies and nuts! If you want to make it even lower in sugar just leave the chocolate chips out!
*This recipe makes two loaves but I did use one 9.2 x 5.2 and the other loaf pan I have is 9 x 5. I filled them both half full.
Gluten Free Lady Quick Left over Potato Veggie Omelet
What’s on my fork today? Whipped up this quick, healthy and yummy omelet for brunch today with some left over for Clif to have for his Tues and Wed morning breakfast! Had six leftover egg yolks from the Quiche’s I made this last week which have 3 egg whites and 3 whole eggs in them so didn’t want to just throw these extra yolks out! hmmm, what can I make? I was out of my usual protein shake today so this is what made it to my fork today!
One of the good habits I’ve had to really focus on is in preparing what to eat!! We’re also learning a lot about this in our The Daniel Plan group. It’s not always been easy even for someone like myself who works at home. I didn’t always enjoy cooking either! I ate fast food 3 to 4 days a week and we ate out at restaurants all the time or ordered Chinese carry out!
It’s been about six years since I’ve been through a drive-through fast food window or even stepped foot in one and now when we do eat out I research the restaurants first! And there are a LOT of great choices believe it or not! I’ve even learned how to make some of their stuff at home and make it healthier too! This has become a well worth HABIT and has saved us a ton of money just in cutting the fast food out alone! Not to mention what’s it’s done for my physical and mental health, my BRAIN is much more focused now!
I suffered from depression for years! Up and down bi-polar .. Clif never knew what sort of mood I would be in. I was either in bed for days at a time or totally manic and all over the place, spending money like crazy and not making good decisions. My holistic doctor weaned me off all the medications and I haven’t been on any prescriptions drugs for over 8 years including thyroid medicine which I was on 32 years. I was also in the first stages of dementia in 2008, and could not drive anywhere by myself. If I had not changed my habits then I would most likely be in a nursing facility today!
A good habit to develop is planning and preparing ahead and using up what we have in the frig. You’d be surprised how good something like this can be when you stop and just take a little time to throw something together! Not only healthier for you but tasty too! Like this egg yolk omelet, I whipped up today! So good with the right stuff to fuel our body and keep it going strong!
Almond Milk Ice Cream
Ice cream is one of the most well-loved and well-known desserts in the world because it is sweet and creamy, cold and refreshing on a hot day! A quick and easy dessert that most people love.
