What's For Dinner

I must admit my most favorite times everyday are as follows!
1. Popping a Thrive capsule and feeling the zing it gives me within the 1st 5 mins.
2. My first sip of coffee with my fav creamer
3. How I feel when my workout is finally over
4. Waking my babies up
5. My am shower
6. Cereal with fresh fruit and my fav Almond milk
7. Snack
8. Lunch, Lunch, Lunch
9. Snack
10. Seeing my kiddies after a long day at school and smoochin my Rock!!
11. DINNER ♥♥
Dinner is my fav meal every day!! I always try to have atleast 4oz of meat, veggies, starch, and dessert!!  A low calorie balanced meal is most important and it insures you get full.
Tonight I made homemade veggie soup which simmered in the crockpot all day. It is the best comfort food on a day where we are sniced<-- my new combo word for snow and ice... in the home for days!! I also threw a batch of chocolate cupcakes made with coke zero( no eggs or oil ) together. Seems to make more when made this way I get 18 cupcakes from 1 box vs the 12 made from the way the box calls for. This makes me a happy momma since sweets are my ♥♥♥ and the 1st to go when you choose to eat healthy. Making with coke zero I still get to eat sweets without the guilt!! ♥

Water do not fill your pot all the way to the top you need to leave room for the veggies to thaw and release water!

  1. That veggie soup looks really good. I see ground meat (wait is it?), green beans maybe? peas, potatoes, corn and kidney beans! How about editing your post to share the recipe?
