So sometimes I get weird cravings....sometimes they work out...sometimes they don't. But I am trying to work on not judging myself so much and just going with cravings, so figure I would share some for me that were so weird, but worked. And it be fun to hear some of your guys too.

Yesterday got craving to spread grape jelly and mustard on toast...AMAZING!

Butternut squash puree, spinach, and tuna in wrap

Peas in oatmeal with cayenne pepper

What you got?

    On the very rare occasions I go to McDonald's, I like getting a plain McFlurry (just a pot of ice cream basically) and dipping my fries in it. The hot saltiness is a perfect contrast to the cold sweetness! Not very unusual maybe, but not the norm, as everyone I mention it to looks disgusted, lol.

    I put ketchup in my chicken noodle soup and people think I'm weird for doing that. It just turns it into tomato chicken noodle, I don't get the big deal!

    Grapefruit and avocado salad.

    Also, I just made a lavender honey ice cream, which I was afraid would taste like soap, but it is actually a nice subtle flavor!

    I don't like chicken noodle soup but that doesn't sound crazy to me. I am not a big ketchup fan in general but I REALLY like ketchup in brown beans...similar thing, it makes the bean juice tomato-y and delicious. I also love ketchup on green beans, always have.

    One more ketchup thing actually...my husband made some yummy wheat spaghetti with TVP recently, but the tomato sauce he used was not quite enough for the amount of spaghetti so it was super dry. I mixed about 2 tsp of olive oil mayo and 1 tsp of ketchup on my portion, mixed it in with the noodles, and it was delish. Sounds gross though, I know.

    a serving of unflavored pea protein powder with a little water, mashed with half a banana makes a delicious, high protein, sweet breakfast hummus that is perfect to spread/pile on toast. add green powder for bonus nutrition points or almond butter for healthy fat!

    All my relatives thought a salad of broccoli florets, halved grapes and chopped walnuts with home made dressing was crazy until they ate it. Now they all love when I fix that.

    I don't know if it works but I was a restaurant for lunch today. They had a hamburger that had peanut butter and jelly in it. I didn't try it though, stayed safe with ahi tuna. Tempted to go back and try it one day though.

    Is this the new trendy burger thing? My sister had one a few weeks ago. She loved it!

    When I go to Wendy's I get a snack sized chocolate frosty to dip my fries in (Delish) When I go to the movies I dump a package of M&M's in my popcorn. Yum melty chocolate butter popcorn. So I guess I love the salty sweet combination too!

    When I worked at McD's as a teen, this was very normal. Also, dipping the fries in the honey sauce is sooo tasty.
