#lowcarbfood
When I want something savoury and can’t be bothered to count cals I just take two carrots (30 cals each for large ones but I rounded up. give or take but it’s carrots and even if I’m off it won’t be by a lot and I know it won’t make me gain weight so it’s totally fine!) this may seem weird but I put mine in pickle juice. It just so happened I finished the jar so I just dumped them in but usually I just put some in a bowl with them and mix them around with spices! Pickle juice is 0-2 cals for a huge amount. Basically the same concept as black coffee it shouldn’t even matter calorie wise! It’s all vinegar basically which is 0 cals. Then I pop them in the oven for half an hour. It’s SO GOOD with Walden farms barbecue sauce! You could make a lot more but I cut mine thick so they look like less! But this is my go to after work for something warm and safe yay (:
Low cal pumpkin banana bread!
-1 cup oats (330)
-small banana (90)
-1 tbsp honey (60)
-1 cup pumpkin purée (70)
-2 eggs (70)
I added salt, cinnamon, which i don’t count! Also you can add Splenda and such but I hate the taste of Splenda in baked goods so that’s why I used the honey, that and the banana will make it naturally sweet!
Total for the whole recipe: 620 calories
I separated into 4 because I wanted a big piece (155 cals and it’s HUGE) and added vanilla halo top! So good
Easy 53 calorie peanut butter cookie!
So, I tried making a low cal peanut butter cookie with pb2, pb fit, etc but it was just TERRIBLE and not satisfying at all. I was about to just give up and eat like 5 tablespoons of peanut butter straight from the jar but then I found THIS GEM and I am IN LOVE. It tastes indentical, literally identical to a normal peanut butter cookie you’d have on Christmas. Kid you not. The best part is that it’s low ingredient and SUPER easy and fast. I’m so exited about this guys
You’ll need:
-1 tbsp peanut butter better Crocker cookie mix (I also put it on my food scale it ended at 53 cals)
-2tbsp oat fiber (maybe 1 and a half if you’re sensitive to the texture easily but when I made it with 2 it tasted AMAZING. Than again I really don’t mind the textured oat fiber)
-pinch of salt
-pinch of baking soda
Usually when I make cookies that are low cal I add stevia so at the end it has that fake sugar taste but for this, the ready made mix already has sugar so no fake stevia taste. BLESS. (We deserve real sugar, even if it might be scary! I promise it’s okay.)
Anyway!! Mix all dry ingredients, I added give or take 1 tbsp of water. Just eyeball it that’s what I did! But make sure it’s not too watery.
Microwave for one minute and let cool for three minutes ish and
boom. HEAVEN.
