BANANA BREAD COOKIES

Ok i swear they taste a lot better than they look :(. I used sugar because i was craving for something sweet and the recipe didn’t required a big amount but you can replace it for any granulated sweetener. I included the oil i used for the baking tray bc i don’t have parchment paper.

The original recipe is from @/itsjessbensky (Instagram), i modified the amounts a bit which made the cookies look uglier but not less tasty.

MACROS:

All - 10 cookies:

My Weekly Workout Routine

You don't need weights or resistance bands, but they're highly recommended.

According to my Apple Watch, I usually burn 800-900 calories at the gym.

When I do push-ups, I put a resistance bands around my upper arms because I was in a really bad car wreck last year and I can't do push-ups without the assistance from the band. If you can't do push-ups, I recommend doing that to help.

As for cardio, I change it every week by increasing the amount of time I run and decreasing the time I walk. Also, sometimes I change it up by doing that "12-3-30" thing (walk for 30 minutes with an incline of 12 and speed of 3).

my new obsession

i crave spicy food (mostly takis and other calorie-dense foods) almost every day of the week.

if you saw my carrot takis post, you can call this an updated version.

THIS one tastes exactly like takis.

ingredients

vegetable of your choice

1 tsp chili powder

1/2 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp onion powder

1 tsp salt

pinch of stevia

1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

1 tsp tajin

squirt of lime juice

1 Tbs water

optional, but highly recommend if you can get your hands on it: mccormick's "hot shot" seasoning

also optional: drop of red food coloring for the aesthetics

directions:

mix everything and adjust to your liking

drizzle about 1 Tbs of the mixture over your cut up vegetable of choice (carrots resemble takis the most)

THE BEST!!

20 calorie pasta sauce

this sauce isn't something i would recommend putting on shirataki noodles, but if you don't mind eating pasta, this is an amazing recipe.

this is meghan markel's recipe (kind of. i added some stuff) and she describes it as "filthy sexy mush" because it tastes like there's tons of oil and butter in it, but there isn't any at all.

ingredients:

yields 6-1/4 cup servings

2 large or 3 smaller zucchini, chopped into very small slices

1 onion, chopped

1 Tbs better than bouillon

1/2 cup water

1 tsp garlic salt

1/4 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp Italian seasoning

pinch of red pepper flakes (if you like a little spice)

directions:

chop the zucchini and onions

if using a pressure cooker (which takes about 45 minutes): sauté everything for a few minutes until aromatic then press the "soup/broth" setting (or manual high for 45 minutes)

if using a slow cooker (takes about 4 hours): sauté everything in a pan over medium heat until aromatic then add to a slow cooker and cook on high for 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low

when done, mash everything very well and then serve over pasta or whatever your heart desires

i serve mine over whole wheat pasta with chicken and it keeps me full very well.

The Easiest 0 Cal. Snack

Pickles. I could not survive without them. Where I live, my favorite pickles are $2 for a small jar. Sometimes, I buy them. When I eat all of the pickles up, I use the brine to make more! Just cut up a cucumber in your desired shape and add to the jar. It's that easy, it's cost effective, it's very low calorie, and it uses up something that you would probably just throw out!! I'd recommend reusing the brine no more than 4-5 times before you throw it out. Let the pickles sit in the fridge at least overnight, but the longer the better.
