Lesser Evil Is Good!

 
Super 4 - Cheesy Nacho
Chia Crisps - Feta and Black Olive
Chia Crisps- Jalepeno White Cheddar

Lesser evil  products are my new obsession. They make low calorie products that are gluten free and organic. I am currently inhaling bags of their Chia Crisps line made out of black beans and the Super 4 - white bean, quinoa, chia, lentil blend. They flavors are awesome. These help with my potato chip cravings. You should definitely check these out. They are available at most grocery stores. If not then most likely the health food stores.

VitaBrownie


        I saw this product briefly on the +DoctorOz show and I thought I'd give it a try. Since I've been on a health kick and giving up on sweets. I have the occasional craving for baked sweets. That includes brownies. Vitabrownie by +Vitalicious is a good product to get that baked good fix. They also make +VitaMuffin. These are pretty good but if you are looking for a really sweet brownie then this is not for you. This has more of the texture and appearance of a brownie but very light when it comes to sweetness.
       There are four tiny brownies in each box. Decent size as you can see, it fits within my hand. Remove the plastic and microwave for about 15-25 seconds (depending on your microwave). Each brownie is 100 calories, about 6-10 gr of fiber, 3-4 gr of protein and low fat.
See it looks good and it was. The sweetness was underwhelming but that's ok. I was looking for a healthier alternative to a typical brownie anyway and this is it! These can be found in your frozen section at your local grocery.

barefruit = awesome snack

barefruit by BareSnacks is a really snack if you are craving sweet, salty or spicy food. Above is a photo of a small bag of their Crunchy Chile Lime Apple Chips. They are sweet but spicy; kinda reminds me of wasabi clearing your nasal passages. They have a variety of flavors listed on their website. Light but filling. Only 100 calories per bag with 3g of fiber. 0 fat, no preservatives, gluten free and non-GMO. These can be found at your local health food stores.
