The Family Health Challenge:

Five small meals each day containing a fist-size of complex carbohydrates, a palm-size of lean protein, and a thumb-size of healthy fat. 3 liters of water. Loads of greens with at least two meals. Celery and cucumbers allowed as snacks in between. One meal off and one day off each week. 7 hours of sleep each night. Daily scripture study. Old habit gone, new habit developed. And...voila!

We are so healthy!

Sweet Potatuh!

Keep it real by switchin up what you eat. Today I had two slices of a sweet potato as a carbohydrate for my meal. Did you know you can just bake it and eat it? Sure, it might taste better with butter. But seriously my friends, I ate it on the go so I didn't even have salt and pepper. My critique? Delish. I baked it for about 45 minutes on 350. It probably would have cooked faster with aluminum foil but hey, it works! I love sweet potatoes! Maybe I'll find a low-cal butter for next time...

And yet, I will dream of these for my next day off:
Sweet Potato Waffles anyone? I'd certainly try them.
