Crock Pot

I left the skin on half and off half. It is definitely more "chewy" with the skin on...but it wasn't bitter or anything. I think I prefer it off. You are AWESOME, Ro, for sharing these recipes...

Oh Yeah! Awesome Ro!

I'm gonna cook a Pork Loin in the crock on Thursday. Not sure what I'm gonna throw in there yet... I'll let ya'll know how it turns out!

I guess I should have mentioned that these recipes are not for BFL. They are healthy though, but you need to use your own knowledge about BFL to work them in. For example, I think butternut squash is a carb, as is barley. There is no protein in that recipe. I am going to make some tonight and cook a couple of chicken breasts to go with it.

I am glad everyone liked these. I get a lot of my recipes/ideas from Abs Diet for Women. The foods in that diet (like many) are the same as BFL, but instead of pairing them up carbs and proteins they call them powerfoods and you try to have as many as possible in your meals. Since the foods are the same, the recipes work for BFL, but they are not balanced for carbs and protein.

...and as long as you know how to do that, and then do it, you are still doing BFL. I think learning how to pair a meal is one key to still staying strict to the diet, but enjoying what you eat... no reason not to.
