Saw this at Target today (the best store in the world, duh) and decided to give it a whirl. I often stay away from frozen dinners for a few reasons… 1. Full of sodium (hellooooo bloating) 2.

Pacific Beach Organic Valencia Peanut Butter & Signature Peanut Butter Spread
Time for a review…of my absolute kryptonite! Peanut butter! Seriously though…I can refuse any baked good in front of me, but put a jar of peanut butter and a spoon nearby, and you’ll find me melting. I go through the temptation  thoughts like Spongebob with water when he visits Sandy for the first time. “I don’t need it… I don’t […]

Gluten Free Apple Cinnamon Chex cereal
I admit…I’ve been in a Special K rut for years. Now I hardly have cereal for breakfast, but every now and then (especially high cardio mornings) I like to have a bowl with some milk for some carbs and protein to keep me going. Well…since I’m trying to refrain from wheat, I skipped the Special K and went for the […]
