Re: Food but not recipes
I am trying to reduce carbs as much as possible (along with generally processed foods) and ran across a snack. Roasted Chickpeas. They are delish. We have a few cans of chickpeas so I made them tonight (homemade, the ones I tried were "organic" and in a bag).
I have a new lower carb snack when I want crunch/salty.

The best part of summer is garden fresh tomatoes....
IMHO there is nothing tastier all year long than a big fat BLT
ETA...
And this is the only bacon I ever buy, either one is just as good. I can't really tell a difference between them, but this cut sure fries up nicely, and there is nothing that smells better than bacon cooking, it draws everyone in the house to the kitchen

Five Surprising Health Benefits of Coffee
“Coffee is abundant in bioactive compounds that promote health,” says Kristin Kirkpatrick, a registered dietitian at Cleveland Clinic. As she explains, research published in The New England Journal of Medicine shows that these compounds may improve the gut microbiome (made up of healthy bacteria that aid in digestion and boost immunity) and reduce what's called oxidative stress, which occurs when free radicals outnumber antioxidants in a way that leads to disease-causing cellular damage in the body. “The beans also have a deep rich hue, and we know that the deeper the color of a plant, the more benefits we can expect for health.” Those benefits, research shows, translate into everything from lowering your risk of diabetes to potentially boosting your brain health.
Moderation, of course, is key. According to current dietary guidelines, three to five 8-ounce cups of coffee — or up to 400 mg of caffeine — per day can be part of a healthy diet. But that’s true only for plain black coffee, not cappuccinos, lattes and macchiatos, which are typically high in calories, sugar and fat. And keep in mind that “some medications or health conditions may limit your tolerance to caffeine or its safety profile, so discuss this with your health care provider,” says Jill Weisenberger, a registered dietitian nutritionist and author of The Overworked Person’s Guide to Better Nutrition.
1. Lowers your risk of type 2 diabetes
2. Protects your ticker (in quite a few ways)
3. Boosts brain health (if you don't overdo it)
4. Improves your mood — for longer than you'd guess
5. Gives your workout a measurable assist

Wisconsin is the top cranberry producer in the United States, and I was born in one of the top cranberry producing counties in Wisconsin. Good stuff!

Re: Food but not recipes
I need to remember to buy some cranberry juice when I go shopping tomorrow. It has been too long.
On a side note to self.. I really should get my dad's cranberry relish recipe.

I like the Light 50 version of Ocean Spray Cran Juice. They use other fruit juices rather than sugar as the sweetener. Cuts the carbs in half.
