Greek Yogurt with Berries and Chocolate!

Simple, yet... Elegant! 
I should endure more into the simplicity of snacking.  Sometimes, I tend to get so wrapped up in complicated recipes.  When hunger strikes I get exhausted of the thought of googling a recipe.  I'm my own problem sometimes, lol!  With being almost 9 months pregnant, grabbing an apple is pretty gourmet these days.  This particular dish did have a small prep to it but still easy none the less.  

Raspberry Sauce:
Whenever I grind my Erythritol in my blender, it leaves a fair amount of residue.  I hate wasting that. I pretty much always have a bag of frozen, then thawed, berries in the frig.  I pour those soft berries and their juices into the sweet ladened blender with some lemon juice.  Give it a whirl and you've got berry sauce! 

My children love this stuff.  They actually just eat it with a spoon.  I pour it on all types of food.  If it's raspberries, I do strain the seeds.

My Chocolate Choice:
Chocoperfection Bars are... To...Die...For!!!  I love these goodies.  They are sweetened with erythritol and chicory root.  They do not cause upset tummy issues like maltitol.  They come in a WIDE variety of flavors.  Mint! Dark! Raspberry!  Milk is my favorite!  The only downfall on this product is its price.  You can't buy just a few (but after you've eaten one, you'll be glad you had a box in the cabinet.)  You have to order a minimum of 12 bars or more.  Sharing an order with friends is ideal, too.  I don't mind paying over 30 dollars for 12 bars.  It's worth the health factor in my eyes!  

So here's my fancy, elegant, simple snack..... finally!  


Mix some Greek yogurt with some liquid stevia until it's to your liking.  8-10 drops is about right!
I like Sweet Leaf.
Add to that some diced, fresh strawberries and your berry sauce.
(I used raspberry sauce today)
Drizzle on top 3 squares of melted Chocoperfection.
I used milk chocolate. 

If you're a Trim Healthy Mama and makes lots of orders to Netrition, you can find Chocoperfection there!

I just have to say the melted chocolate sets on the cold berries and yogurt like Magic Shell.  It is truly chocolate heaven!!!!
Enjoy :)

Snickers Smoothie

ONE WORD.... Snickers!  Yep!  Makes your mouth and mind BUZZZZZZZZ ! This recipe was graciously shared to me by a trim healthy mama.  I am always skeptical when something says 'healthy' and has a name brand tagged on it.  Like brownies made with cottage cheese.  Or how about 'Doritos' kale chips!  C+C Music Factory comes to mind with "Things that make you go hmmmmmm!"   BUT................. This really has a Snickers-ish flare to it.  And- I love it.   Go all out on your extract.  I have friends that get theirs at Walmart, but quality verses quantity wins me over.  You usually have to use more of the cheap stuff to get that punch of flavor.  My favorite is Bakto .  The other spotlight in this Snickers Shake is Glucomannan.  You can read its wonderful qualities  here. Snickers Smoothie Into your favorite blender add the following:  1 cup of Unsweetened Almond milk (or if you're in heavy weight loss mode, 1/2 cup of almond milk

Best of all it makes a scrumptious drink called the "SHRINKER" and you get all these extras and more thrown in for good measure.   Oolong contains antioxidants that powerfully destroy free radicals. Research conducted by Dr Kenichi Yanagimoto from the university of California, showed that only 15 days of Oolong tea drinking enabled an incredible 50% reduction in free radicals.

My allergic reaction to jalapeños

****** If you are having an intense burning from cutting jalapeños and found this blog on the web, scroll to the bottom.  I have labeled what you need to do!!! It was Saturday afternoon. I had a wonderfully planned party at my house for 6pm. I diligently cleaned all day. I had let my house go, so a deep clean was in order. I was saving all my cooking for the last hour of the party so everything would be warm. It was 5pm and I was ready to cook. Being 6 months pregnant, the breaking back work of cleaning had almost done me in, but it was worth it. The house looked great. I planned to make a few dishes, but my star dish was 'Jalapeno Poppers'. I had them in restaurants in the past, but never made them. I got the recipe off a Facebook page. She hand typed it (no blog or star winning website) so it was simple instructions. I destemmed, cut them length wise and deseeded 15-20 jalapenos. Followed the rest of the instructions and into the oven they went. I de
