Toffee Chip Power Bars. What is the obsession? Totally processed sugary power bars. I love these things. I have maybe 1/2 before working out and the rest post workout. Then I eat a bowl of cereal an hour later for breakfast. They have mini chocolate chips on top and they are so good. I don't recommend them though, they're addictive and have a big list of ingredients.
PHILLY CREAM CHEESE
I can't get enough of this stuff. Bagels, Potatoes, pasta...with a spoon. I don't know where I came up with this one!
CHOCOLATE AND MINT
I want these now!!
I remember my mom making these all the time growing up. They're all the rage!
I made the thin mints. I told you they would never look like the picture but all that really matters is the taste, right?
Now let's talk about some less sugary ideas - COOKING
I also learned that I like to eat salmon, but I can't cook it then eat it. I'm just starting to eat fish and that is the only one I will try because of its nutritional powerhouse nature. I followed this recipe and tried some of it and it was delicious, but then mentally I couldn't eat it anymore knowing that I cooked it and it was fish. Ha.
This was a great recipe that my friend Lauren shared.

ReplyDeletePhilly Cream Cheese is the BEST! Love love love it. Those ginger cookies look great too!
ReplyDeleteI love chocolate and mint! I used to make thin mint brownies... but my hubby hates the combo!
ReplyDeleteRight now I'm obsessed with all things Pumpkin, butternut squash, and comfort type foods. I guess it's this fall weather
ugh, you are making want to eat! lol your thin mints look good to me!
ReplyDeleteI love salmon! I craved it crazy when I was pregnant with Ethan. My favorite way to make it is broil it in the oven topped with a bit of butter(helps keep it moist), lemon (takes any fishy flavor out), and lemon pepper seasoning. SO GOOD! I then steamed broccoli and brown rice to go with it.
Oh my... those chocolate and mint things are making me hungry!!!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to stop by and wish you good luck tomorrow Natalie. You're going to do great!!!!
ReplyDeletei just made the pumkin ginger cookies, albeit with eggs and real butter, not vegan. but they are SOO good!
