Readers were asked, "What healthy ingredient do you cook with most often?" Here's what I said (sort of...):
Honeycrisps are my favorite kind of apple, hands down. They are a bit more expensive than other varieties at the market, but the crunchy, sweet taste is worth the extra cost per pound. I add apple slices to peanut butter toast in the morning, and I puree them to sweeten a dairy-free butternut-squash soup that I serve for dinner. Although apples have always been my fruit of choice, now that I'm pregnant, I crave them constantly. Not surprisingly, my doctor approves.
You know what my doctor would not approve of? Consuming three servings (aka a row) of these delicious organic (better than Oreos) faux-Oreos, then talking myself out of going to prenatal yoga - whoopsie.
I'm in love. |
Ha! I just went to Trader Joe's for the first time tonight and bought organic Oreos! I've eaten a row already, and I don't have pregnant cravings to blame.
