So, a little explanation.

One of my challenges is that I really want to make this a lifestyle, and not make it feel like a diet. So I am trying to eat small portions of sensible food, but not deprive myself. This fits in really well with the fact that I LOVE to cook and also that I cook for my fiancee, who loves to eat! But cooking is super-hard to motivate myself for sometimes, since I can eat so little....

....so I started a blog.

The recipes are mostly healthy (and even the decadent ones include modifications you could use to make them lower calorie), but are not "diet food." It's food for real people with or without sleeves, and I put in the nutrition facts.

Last night, I made smoky chipotle burgers with 99% lean ground turkey and managed to actually make them moist and yummy, so I thought I would share (the secret is ricotta cheese, believe it or not.)

Here's a link to my recipe with nutrition info, photos, etc: http://savorysweetie.com/smoky-chipotle-turkey-burgers-with-cooling-creamy-salsa/

I hope that if you're interested you'll read my blog and comment, as well! I'm just starting off and would love some readers . The more support I can get for all parts of this journey, the better off I feel, and cooking is definitely a big part of the journey that's a change for me!

My lime was REALLY small, I think that must be the difference. Glad you liked!

I tried this and liked it a lot. I linked to it on my blog: Takin' A Load Off.

Based on your note to one of your visitors, I figured you'd like me linking to it on my blog and I ALWAYS give attribution.

You might like my Low-Carb Shepherd's Pie. It came out really great and I even fooled some people into thinking I made it with potatoes. Hooray!

I love trying out good, new recipes. Thanks for sharing!!
