Recipe: P2 Blueberry Smoothie

Recipe: P2 Blueberry Smoothie

I seriously need to write an article about how rogue I am when I coach about P2.

It would be so incredibly awesome to have some sort of disclaimer that I can just link that says “click here to understand why sometimes I go outside the box when it comes to P2”.

Then I wouldn’t have to explain every time I posted a recipe like this. ::giggle::

To be fair however, let me explain why I allow blueberries on P2.  Over the years I have worked with hundreds (dare I say thousands?) of people through the Happily Thinner After Community Forums and more […]

Recipe: Pumpkin Spice Latte

Recipe: Pumpkin Spice Latte

One of my very first experiences with Starbucks was my introduction to the Pumpkin Spice Latte.

I was out with a group of friends and it was a particularly cold day in December in Charleston, SC and the group wanted to stop at Starbucks. At the time, I was against anything having to do with SB cause I thought it was a waste of peoples money. Way too expensive, and really, what was the use. Coffee is coffee.

Boy, was I wrong. ::giggle::

What they neglected to tell me at the time was that it was a “seasonal” thing. Ok, sure, I […]

Recipe: Broccoli Cheese Soup

Recipe: Broccoli Cheese Soup

It’s officially fall, and what better way to celebrate it than with a nice warm soup for those cold evenings?

I have to ultimate favorite soups in the world, clam chowder (is that even a soup?) and potato.  Well, if you are trying to be a low-starcher, then potato is pretty much out.  So the next best thing?  A thick Broccoli and Cheese soup.  It’s very close to being the comfort food that potato soup is.

This recipe is fast and easy, and it is usually something I can make with ingredients I always have on hand.

If you ask me, […]

Recipe: Hamburger and the Fixings

Recipe: Hamburger and the Fixings

I know, I know.

It’s officially fall and I should be concentrating on fall recipes.  However, it is also foot ball season and we love to grill, don’t we?  Hamburgers are always perfect for grilling, but who wants to just keep eating burgers without a bun?

Enter the Oopsie Roll!  That is a name made famous by a low carber from WAY back.  In reality, these rolls were developed by none other than the low carb king, Dr. Atkins himself, except he called them “Revolution Rolls”.  I spent a few minutes before I wrote this post to find the original […]

Recipe: Ricotta Flax Pancakes

Recipe: Ricotta Flax Pancakes

Gotta be honest, pancakes and I don’t get along so well. I am not talking about weight wise, but rather, I just really don’t like them. I have to remember however that it’s not always just about me!  ::giggle::

I went searching for a recipe that I could convert to HIGH FAT that would help those out there that miss this sort of breakfast.  This seemed to fit the bill.

I am not crazy about flax.  There is a certain texture to it that just doesn’t jive with me, and I think the next time I make this I will make it […]

Recipe: Basic Quiche

Recipe:  Basic Quiche

This recipe is officially in the Good Food Hunting eBook.  I don’t mind sharing it here as this recipe is a pretty basic recipe that can be found anywhere on the internet when looking for something that is low carb friendly.  The trick however is how to make it HIGH FAT!

So, take a look at the picture.  This is usually how I turn any protein heavy meal into something that is considered higher fat.  Add avocado, oil, and sour cream!  ::giggle::

This recipe is so versatile.  You can pretty much empty your refrigerator of […]

Recipe: Broccoli Dressed Like a Potato

Recipe: Broccoli Dressed Like a Potato

Who doesn’t miss baked potatoes?  Come on, admit it.  You can, I won’t tell anyone.

::giggle::

But seriously, when you go to a good steakhouse and you want something that compliments it, consider this instead.  In fact, this will work with almost any type of steamed veggies.

And why wait for going out?  Make this a main course in a meal at home.  It has everything you need in a complete HIGH FAT meal.  Make yourself a small chopped raw salad on the side and you have yourself a conglomeration of different textures, tastes, and temperatures to make for a very […]

Recipe: P2 Tuna Slop

Recipe: P2 Tuna Slop

Just call me renegade.  It doesn’t bother me.

One of my clients once said to me:  RESULTS DON’T LIE

That is where I am.  Sure, I experiment, and then I have clients and Boot Camp members that are willing to experiment, and in the long run I find things that work pretty much across the board.  It’s all in the results.

This is one of those things.  One of my first clients gave it it’s name, so don’t blame me for this one.  It is something I came up with on one of my later P2’s to help me […]
