It has been a long time since I have made Trim Healthy Mama (THM) posts. My menu posts get a lot of views, so clearly people are interested in those! I'm sharing my weekly menus, and maybe doing so will keep me on the right track! I thought this week would be a perfect time to explain how I plan "cheat" meals. As any of you who follow THM know, the creators Pearl and Serene advocate for food freedom and discourage feeling guilty about choices. Off plan meals aren't forbidden, but clearly too ...
Healthy Meal Prep Monday – Low Carb THM April 30
Healthy Meal Prep Monday It’s Monday again, and I’m sharing with you my Healthy Meal Prep results! The last several days have been really excruciating. We had winter and winter and more winter for months, and I didn't know if spring would ever come! Then all of a sudden, it decided to arrive, and this has been the worst that my seasonal allergies have ever been. Unfortunately, because I've felt terrible, I didn't do a whole lot of healthy meal prep work yesterday! I kept it very minimal with ...
Healthy Meal Prep Monday – Low-Carb THM April 23
Healthy Meal Prep Monday It's Monday, and I'm sharing with you my Healthy Meal Prep results! Meal preparing is something that I have done off and on for the last ten years. I first got into freezer cooking and would make meals that would go into my freezer that would last us for a month. It was great, but it just took an incredible amount of time to accomplish. Now that I have three kids and a part-time editing gig (more on that soon!), I can't make the once-a-month freezer cooking work for ...
Nope-Tato Soup | Healthy Cauliflower Soup / THM FP
Who doesn't love some good potato soup? Potato soup has always been a part of my life. When I began eating the Trim Healthy Mama way and cut down on how much I consumed white potatoes, it was hard. Cauliflower is a good replacement for potatoes, so I've eaten a lot of cauliflower. However, the healthy cauliflower soup recipes that I've tried are great, but I have felt like something was missing. This month my inspiration arrived. A lady from my church made some potato soup that tasted amazing. ...
Menu for December Week 2 – Incorporating Okra
This week's focus: Okra! I'm really not an okra fan. I'll just say that right now. I think it's slimy and tastes like green peppers, another one I'm not fond of.

If you know of some great, unslimy (yes, I think I made up a word!) okra recipes, please share in the comments! Why am I so interested in okra? Here's some information about its benefits. Good source of ...
