I am only just realizing how far 1 tbsp of oil goes. I've always been a huge fan of veggies, usually with some olive oil, sea salt and black pepper. I never realized how much freaking oil I was using!!!! Or that I could use one measly tablespoon (instead of 2-3) for a meal-sized serving and it would taste exactly the same!! Oh, the things you learn...

    yep! even just a tsp of oil goes a loooong way. especially when you're adding sea salt and plenty of black pepper and other calorie-free flavourings, you don't miss the oil at all :D i love experimenting with different spices and such.

    now if only i could get my fiance's family to realize that... ~_~;;;

    You just have to make the food for him and he'll never know. That's what I've had to do.

    I even got him eating a chocolate pie that he thought was just chocolate pudding in a graham cracker crust...God forbid he EVER finds out it is Shakeology and tofu, and it tastes exactly the same only it is very healthy. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
