Let's Talk Harvest Crunch
Mindless eating terrifies me. I definetly wouldn't be keeping that box of cereal. It would go down nice and then stay there on my hips I think.
eggface makes a good granola recipe that I eat as a snack.
1/3 cup oats
1/3 cup sliced almonds
1/4 cup nuts and seeds (total)
1 scoop protein powder (I use GNC ISO pure whey vanilla and the scoop is tiny)
3 T SF Torani
2 T nut butter
1 T butter
I put tonnes and tonnes of cinammon in it but you can choose your own spices
Put it in the oven at 350 for 20 mins after spreading it on a foiled cookie sheet. Delicious !
What about drying some cucumber "chips" in the oven or something like that ?
Good luck ! Head hunger and mindless munching is a yucky road to go down :(
Way, way, way too many carbs. Definitely not enough protein. You can take all kinds of carb free vegies and dry them in the oven. I do Kale, mixed greens, etc. Wash them and make sure they are dry. Spread them on a baking sheet and spray them with cooking spray and put them in the oven at a low temp for 20 min to half an hour. Put them in a bowl and toss them with your favorite seasonings. Yummy and safe. This is a grandkid and movie night snack, minus the popcorn
Thanks for reading and commenting, the responses I got are exactly what I required, everybody is 100% correct and I am totally wrong. I do dump on Oatmeal crisp and many other things. I have this stupid reactive hypoglycemia also but I need carbs to keep my brain going or I get that foggy feeling. The Harvest Crunch does taste really good but it is not for us, I shall give it to my Son who will inhale it without a second thought. Thank you everybody. I really do appreciate everyone's honesty and wisdom. Laurie
That is such a nice response Laurie. Good for you!
