We've been making a lot of bowls lately, and this Teriyaki Chicken recipe has been one of our favorites. It's incredibly easy, and George will eat it too — so it saves us extra time in the kitchen preparing meals. Win-win!
If you've been curious about the Always Pan I did a formal review in this post, but it's on sale for Black Friday and under $100 with code SUPERSALE (which makes it the lowest price of the year). I have two and highly recommend — you won't regret it! ...
Each fall I look forward to pulling out my crockpot and making slow cooker soups and pastas. I LOVE the ease of a crockpot meal. Throw and go, yes please! Not only are these incredibly delicious, but they are really easy to throw together. This list has been passed around the family for years and includes some of our go-to meals for a cold night in. ...
We all love an easy dinner recipe and if you're trying to stick with a low-carb lifestyle, here are a few meals that we have been enjoying lately.
Since starting F-Factor in January, we've had trouble finding low-carb meals that are 1. satisfying and 2. easy to make. This list checks both boxes for us. My personal favorites are the Garlic Crispy Brussel Sprouts and the Tortilla Pizza.
Let me know what you think if you try any of these! ...
Austin and I love a good margarita moment. And if it's spicy, that's even better in our book. This spicy marg recipe has been a nice treat during these summer months. I actually made these for our friends and they couldn't believe they were sugar-free.
Usually, I am not a fan of mixers. I find them overly sweet and typically they taste really "artificial". But a TTD reader told me about Swoon mixers (zero sugar zero cals) and encouraged me to order the Margarita mixer.
For a low-carb and zero sugar drink, we were impressed. It's made from Monk Fruit (a melon native to Southeast Asia that has natural sweetness) and has zero calories and carbs. We've been cooking with Monk Fruit for a while since starting F Factor, and it's the closest thing to sugar that we've tasted (unlike Splenda or Stevia). It took Austin a minute to get used to it, but I liked it right away. I've already bought a few bottles to share with the family over 4th of July weekend. ...
If you're like me, iced coffee is a must this time of year. I could honestly drink it year-round, but during the summer it's truly the best treat.
I have 3 recipes that I have been rotating each week. Whether you like to go to Starbucks or make something at home, I have a recipe below that is ideal for iced coffee lovers. ...
If you follow me on Instagram Stories or are in my private Facebook Group (request to join and I'll accept you!), you know I've been pretty open about our F-Factor journey and what Austin and I have done to lose weight and make healthier choices. Our goal this year was to shed a few extra pounds and actually stick with this as a lifestyle. A lot of you have requested "grab and go" snacks that would support a low-carb/high fiber diet, so I wanted to share what we keep on hand. ...
Anyone else been getting 10x more use out of their kitchen lately? Same. Aus and I both have been working really hard this year on cleaning up our diets and trying to strike more of that "balance" they say is possible. For the most part it's been going well, but I have to admit, this quarantine situation has me craving all the delicious baked goods and junk food. Honestly, I'm not mad about it. It's this craving that led me to start experimenting with cookie recipes and you guys, I think I landed on a serious winner! ...
I love a good green bean casserole for Thanksgiving. Next to stuffing, it might be my favorite holiday side. Austin would disagree though -- he's more of a Mac and Cheese guy all the way. But he did say this was the best green bean casserole he ever had. He hasn't stopped talking about it since I made this recipe for Friendsgiving last week. ...
We appreciate a good cup of coffee around here and now that iced coffee season is upon us (as if it ever went anywhere), we are making more trips to our nearby Starbucks.
Between Austin, Victoria and myself, one of us usually makes a coffee run two or three times a week. I'm a creature of habit and typically stick with my Iced Chai, but I love to see what everyone else orders. And if I'm feeling adventurous, I'll try something new. ...
TRADER JOE'S CHICKEN SAUSAGE EGG SCRAMBLE

We get all of these ingredients at Trader Joe's, however, you can find many of them at your local grocery store. There's really no "right" way to make this. It's totally up to personal taste on how much veggies you want to include. ...
