I am super excited to be starting a food diary on my Instagram and Blog. I wanted to start this journey off with my favorite lunch/dinner. This recipe is perfect for anyone who wants to eat healthy, but not substitute for amazing taste and price.

Stuffed Sweet Potato

  

Ingredients:

1 Sweet Potato
1/2 Avocado
Handful of fruit

Directions:

Wash sweet potato and stab several times with fork or knife for even cooking.
Wrap in foil and put in crockpot.
Set crock pot to high and let cook for 3-4 hours.
Oven cooking (425 degrees for 1 hour).
Dice avocado and side of fruit
Take sweet potato out of crock pot and cut down the middle (caution the sweet potato will be very hot). Mush the potato and top with a small slice of butter and sprinkle with salt. Top it off with all that avocado and enjoy!

Got a sweet tooth you just can't satisfy?
I know how hard it is (being a sugarholic) to eat 1..or 2.. or 3... or 8 calorie filled treats and feel immediately guilty afterward. Why does chocolate taste so good!? To help curve your craving, try my Skinny Strawberry Sorbet with my favorite Homemade Granola.



Homemade Granola:

2 tbsp Sliced Almonds
1 tbsp Chia Seeds
6-8 Organic Banana Chips
Handful of cornflakes
2 tbsp of Oats





Place ingredients in blender and blend to desired texture. (I like mine powdery).
If you are using a Nutri-bullet, be careful, it blends up pretty quickly. You might want to pulse instead of puree. 



It should come out looking something like this:



Skinny Strawberry Sorbet:

8-10 Frozen Strawberries
1/4 cup Coconut or Regular Water
2 squirts Lemon Juice (optional)
1/2 cup of Ice (add more as desired)
1 tbsp Honey





1. Freeze 8-10 Strawberries
2. Measure out Water and Lemon Juice
3. Pour all contents into blender
4. Add ice as desired for thickness 



Your Skinny Sorbet should come out looking something like this:



Now mix the two together and you'll be in for a sweet treat. 



Feel free to save your extra Granola to enjoy with some greek yogurt later this week. It can be stored in your cabinet or your fridge! For some an extra sweet kick, add some shredded coconut to the batch.  Happy Healthy Eating!

XOXO, CK
