healthy food has PLENTY of flavor!! i know mine does! i like to switch up my seasonings often to keep the flavors new and different without altering the nutritional stats of my meal. after all, i'll be eating the same things for a few more weeks.

just a small section of my flavor arsenal. i do love fresh herbs best, but dried is the next best thing and lasts waaaaaaay longer. AND these are all one dollar at HEB.

that smokehouse maple is outta this world!! i seasoned our tilapia with it just last night for dinner and it was amazing. i also used some of the roasted garlic and herb on the sautéed zucchini i served with it. scrumptious. see?

i instagrammed my clean, balanced, flavor-filled lunch today:

it was roasted chicken breast, oven-roasted sweet potatoes, and fresh spinach all topped with toasted pistachio nuts.

i used the montreal chicken seasoning on the breasts (and some dried parsley),

and roasted them on 350 degrees for about 50 minutes or so.

same thing with the sweet potatoes- i roast them until they are soft to the touch. i sometimes add cinnamon, vanilla, and some 'i can't believe it's not butter' spray and make a fancy puree for no added calories!

or, i just leave them as is.

mustard is such a versatile condiment. i use it to dip my chicken in, as a marinade, and as a sauce. and you guessed it- it doesn't add all the extra calories, sugars, and carbs that typical sauces like ketchup, bbq (LOVE IT) , and ranch do!! i found this little gem at HEB just a few days ago:

it is CRAZY good and ZERO calories!!! (works VERY well as a fish marinade too)

i also drizzle the spicy brown mustard (5 calories per teaspoon) as well as the honey mustard (10 calories per teaspoon) all over my food before devouring it.

speaking of flavor, let's talk about water.

i've said this multiple times- i am NOT a fan of drinking water when i'm just not thirsty. blech! so i use the sugar-free, flavored packets.

these Wylers packs are just 1 dollar at Walmart and HEB and 10 calories per serving. i actually split up one packet between two 16 oz water bottles cause it's a little strong for me. drinking one of these things curbs my sugar craving completely. BIG help. speaking of sugar cravings, they are GONZO!!! but i'll get back to that in my next bodybuilding progress post ;)

make a few ahead of time and put them in the fridge. s/n- i thought the cherry limeade flavor would some how resemble the sonic drink but boooooy was i wrong! try'em and see what you think though.

what's your favorite dipping sauce? i used to put the buttermilk ranch dipping sauce from Jack In The Box on EVERYTHING :shock:
