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.

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. 🙂

Overcoming Healthy Eating Sabotage [FREE TRAINING]

One of the things I hear and deal with the most when it comes to helping clients (and myself) to overcome is personal self-sabotage.

There are many reasons why we do it – if we dare to look that deep inside – but regardless of the underlying WHY, I’ve found an easy and effective way to begin to recognize it sooner, and train your brain to prevent it from happening again.

In last night’s live call I led you step-by-step into:

How you identify the first sign of impending sabotage
How you identify the specific food, circumstances and feelings associated with your actions
How you rewind and replay the scenario to produce a different outcome
How you tap into using the power of visualization for success
And how to create a personal affirmation to set you up for success at the next tempting encounter.

You can find it all in my recording from last night’s call and go through the steps as I guide you.

Plus I give you info on:

-Easy grab-and-go snacks when you’re on the run

-Exciting upcoming Fit+Faith events and online program possibilities

-How to get a free strategy session with me

-AND- prayer requests and ending the call in prayer.

I think you’ll love these great insights to prevent self-sabotage and everything else that’s packed inside. Download the recording here.

We get right to work, so have a pen and paper handy. 😉

Enjoy, and I look forward to having you on the next one! 🙂
