I did have a spoonful of peanut butter. But I ate it off the spoon and it was a much better alternative to what I thought about! :)<br /><br />I'll have to try the marinara with meat sauce. Believe it or not, Rod hates broccoli. The kids like it but not Rod. I thought about making chili with lots of beans and meat as well. I might try it - probably would work better for Rod if I used cauliflower. He's weird that way! :) <br /><br />Good luck in the job hunt! :)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17326341620240628573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-699714124242566968.post-14489688781471278322011-03-01T09:23:09.285-05:002011-03-01T09:23:09.285-05:00Rachel, since we have the same medical issue... :-...Rachel, since we have the same medical issue... :-) I thought I would share that I am right there with you. I started back on low- carb Jan. 3 and I have lost close to 35 lbs in 2 months. It does work even without much exercise. Our bodies truly respond to this diet. <br /><br />I do have a tip for you. If you like Broccoli or cauliflower...Make Spagetti sauce (lots of meat)add a little sauce, take out about 2 cups for you and Rod and add the rest of the sauce for the kids. Make noodles for the kids make as normal for them and toss yours in with the broccoli or cauliflower and add parmesan. I love this and I really get the Marinara flavor of having spagetti. You also don't really taste the flavor of the veggie. It might be worth a try. :-)Erica Spencernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-699714124242566968.post-54130740731815184852011-02-25T12:56:07.211-05:002011-02-25T12:56:07.211-05:00thank you SO much for posting this... right this v...thank you SO much for posting this... right this very minute i am in a place where i just need to laugh, and you helped! thanks...
