Monday I brought you some yummy recipes to from my new cookbook Cook Yourself Thin Faster that were totally healthy and I loved! Well Rick not so much I've been told the cranberry turkey meatloaf can never be made again (I'll just wait until he leaves town). He asked my why he must suffer while I diet, he kills me! It's funny if you wouldn't tell them what they are eating just make them eat it they would love it! But you say what's in it and their inner picky child makes them not like veggies!
Tell them to get over it and they'll love it if they try it! Today I'm going to show you 4 more recipes that I just LOVED and guess what yup I told you if you came back you would get a chance to win the book! 4 lucky readers will win this cookbook for their very own! Enjoy over 75 yummy recipes that will help you loose weight fast! So here it goes breakfast, dinner, side and of course desert!

BREAKFAST
French Toast Bread Pudding

Serve with Salsa on top!
Cheese "Fries"
1 Large butternut squash, peeled and seeded (cut up into fry size pieces)
Toss with:
1 tb olive oil (yes I bought some)
1 tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper

ReplyDeleteWow, all of these recipes sound heavenly! Bet the bread pudding one is amazing. Let's see, so how are we trying to eat healthier? This last year we planted a big vegetable garden and I made lots of dishes with veggies both familiar and unfamiliar ;) Now I'm trying to make more stuff myself that I'd typically buy -- the latest is my quest for an additive-free homemade blue cheese sald dressing. :) Good luck in your weight loss goals!
ReplyDeleteGoing to have to bookmark this page! Looks good.
ReplyDeleteI want to win the cookbook because I've been gaining weight recently. Hubs is now home for dinner all the time, so I'm always cooking a full meal, instead of just doint that a few times a week. So, I better start cooking healthier!

My biggest problem has always been not drinking enough water. I have vowed that this year is water year. I am going to teach my body that it needs water and I am going to drink more water every day.
ReplyDeleteI baked a lot for the first time during the holidays, weighed myself this morning and yes, it's time to buckle down and a fabulous cookbook like this would definitely help!
