    I can do savory but sometimes crave sweet fix , l made coconut lemon balls kept dem in the freezer picked at them . I am trying to eat reduced carb minimum refine d sugar , but crave a sugar hit quickly recipes ideas please

    Dates! I've been eating them after every meal! Filled with fiber and also very sweet and natural.

    Also dates with a blob of cream cheese (caloric) or ricotta cheese (less caloric), and perhaps an almond or a bit of unsweetened coconut. Add natural orange extract to the cheese for extra yum.

    Carrot and pineapple, eh? Haven't tried it - think I need to. Sounds tasty!

    i love carrots but on their own they can be a little bit . . . idk, either bland or chewy or something. and also almost too sweet. when i was a kid there was always either orange or pineapple chunks to moisten things up and give a little tartness, and i just kept on that way.

    oranges, speaking of. i'm also on a huge kick right now of breaking an orange into segments and then freezing them. room-temperature oranges are kind of meh in my mind, but when they're partially frozen they're one of my favourite things.

    Probably harder to get good oranges up in Canada. I grew up with them growing in my backyard.

    A good way of picking a good orange is to sniff the navel. You can pick up on the quality there.

    ... Now I totally need to freeze orange segments! Fantastic idea!

    I like a peice of fruit (a plum or something sweet and sour) with a little peanut butter.

    Sweet, sour, salt, fat, all in one.

    Try one Adora Dark Chocolate Calcium supplements, with Vitamin D, made with high quality organic chocolate...taste good, healthy (especially good for women re: osteoporosis risk), and only 30 calories :)

    Some 85% or over dark chocolate or dates are good (just like one or two pieces usually though)

    A protein shake made with Syntrax Whey Shake Chocolate and Califia Farms Toasted Coconut Almond Milk hits the spot almost every time.

    A piece of really good chocolate is my usual go to.

    Currently: a sliced persimmon. They're in season right now and soooooo yummy.

    In summer: what ever fruit is ripe in my parents' garden. :smile:

    My go-to is an apple, or grapes. I'm more of a salty eater. My fiancé used to mix Jell-O and vanilla greek yogurt. I'm not crazy about it, but he loved it, because it is so low calorie, so he could eat a generous amount if he wanted.

    I've been thinking about making grilled burgers with pineapple lately. How long do you grill the pineapple for?

    Frozen wild blueberries with cream - its like deconstructed ice cream!
    Sliced fruit with a little honey or raw sugar
    Bittersweet chocolate - but not after 4pm
    Fruit salad - nothing else added
