diet snack

It was an accident-SIMPLE SOLUTION TO THE DREADED CARROT STICKS, CELERY, AND PEPPER SNACK FOR DIETS.

apparently some good things come from accidents. there i was making a vegetable soup and decided to roast some carrots. guess what-I had the peeled, small carrots that comes in bags (zero peeling and chopping needed here) put them on foil, sprinkled a smidge of salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and tossed in a small (SMALL) amount of olive oil, ready now for roasting. In comes my handy dandy husband who decides to eat some of these carrots, raw, prior to cooking. They were delicious. You know when you have to go on a diet and they always threaten you with that delicious sounding snack - carrot sticks, celery and pepper. well guess what this was pretty damned good seasoned. WHY DON'T THEY SEASON FOOD ON DIETS. WHAT ARE THEY AFRAID OF. WE MIGHT ACTUALLY LIKE WHAT WE'RE EATING. I'm actually going to have this on hand now for us to nibble on. Just season it. You need a bit of the olive oil for the seasoning to stick to it. That's all. If you think you're going to lose control on the olive oil - then spray it on. That will work.



speak to you soon. pi

Since I always am on a diet I will try this! You can take some olive oil and rub it in your hands then take the carrots and mix them with your hands - if this all makes sense. This way you are coating them with minimal oil but enough to make the spices stick.

sounds good. think an olive oil you like helps. it adds to the flavor and the mouth feel. makes is feel and taste like something.
