My Newest Favorite Kitchen Gadget + Sweet Potatoes = BLISS!

I am IN LOVE with my newest kitchen gadget, the Veggetti Pro. I’ve used the standard Veggetti before, to make zucchini noodles and transform other veggies into delectable strands, but with the larger Pro edition it makes is SO EASY! My nick name for it is “the spiralizer” as you can do thick or thin spirals, or flat ribbons.

Here I experimented with a white sweet potato with the “thick spiral” blade and then tossed the curls with coconut oil, paprika, cayenne, oregano, parsley, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
Spiced up, ready to bake!
Bake at 400F for 40-45 min, tossing and rotating every 10 minutes for an even baking and to make sure the smaller pieces don’t burn. Since a spiral cut makes the potato so thin, it will shrink and dehydrate while it’s baking. So don’t be surprised when you see that they shrink down. This was only one medium sized sweet potato. So plan for 1/2 potato per person. In this case there were just two of us, so we split it and it was the perfect amount.

The sweetness of the potato combined with the flavors of the spices meant you didn’t even need ketchup or anything to dip it into! This was a great compliment to the rest of our dinner of pork chops and steamed broccoli. 🙂
No extra carbs needed!

Happy New Year! New Year, New You!

Swing open the floodgates, the doors are OPEN!

The reason I’m so excited about this is because it started as my personal journey, and as I began to experience things and learn and grow, I realized, I’ve got to find a way to bundle this up and make it easy for someone else to do too!

So with you in mind, I’ve been working over that past 3 or 4 months on how to bring that to reality, and we’re actually here!!

So if you’re looking to not only lose weight (at least 10 pounds in the next 30 days or less!) and you’re open to learning how to make sustained healthy patterns and habits in your life, then my new program is definitely for you.

I won’t make this too lengthy, in case you’re not interested (which is totally fine!) but if you are, the doors are now open, so click the link to learn more!
