Instead of turning a complete healthy snack such as raw broccoli into a no no by dipping it in ranch, a way to save calories is to get a tub of fat free sour cream, a dry packet of ranch dip seasonings (that you find in the salad dressing isle) and add SLOWLY to the sour cream until you get it to the flavor strength you want. I was a bit overly excited and added way too much and it was so salty and strong that I about choked to death. Another thing I do to help with my sweet tooth is, I have a salt shaker that I mixed splenda and cinnamon in until I had it to the balance I liked and toast a piece of Sara Lees 45 cal piece of whole grain bread and then spray I cant believe its not butter spray (with no cals and no fat of course) onto the bread, sprinkle my cinn and splenda mix on and man its good. I only indulge in that when I am not doing really low carb of course but its really filling and all you have to count is the bread. I hope you like my ideas! Thanks again for yours. |
I learned back in the body building days when I was eating a lot of sweet potatoes that you can add pumpkin spice to a lot of things and make them taste like pumpkin, I think there is apple or apple pie spice also mix that with a little cinamon and put it in oatmeal
