Bread in a Mug - Oh Sweet Mercy Going gluten free means no more delicious, yeasty, bread-y bread. I’m sorry, but there just isn’t a gluten free alternative that EXACTLY matches the taste and texture of a good ole loaf of wheat bread. There are many recipes out there that come close, but that’s it. Close is not. quite. it. So, it wasn’t too hard of a transition for me going on the Trim Healthy Mama plan.

Roasting Turkey at Home For Sandwiches One of my New Year's resolutions is to always bring my lunch to work. I'm trying to save money, eat healthier, and have more time so I can go on a long walk during my workday. So far, so good! Of course now that I'm shopping at the market more often I'm trying to figure out ways to bring down costs there too. I settled on turkey and picked up a free range natural 3.75 lb. bone-in turkey breast from my butcher for $23. Besides, a sixty percent savings (3 lbs. of pre-packaged turkey meat from the same makers of the bone-in breast would cost over $50), my homemade sandwich meat tastes better than most deli meat I've tried.
