    Whole pan of which for forty calories and share the recipe!

    This makes one 8x8 inch pan for 40 calories - (I put it in a 9 X11 pan in picture) i like to make a few & snack on them throughout the day.

    -measure 1/2 cup cold water & place in a mixing bowl

    -evenly sprinkle 2 packets of unflavored gelatin over water (wait a few mins for it to bloom, then mix it up)

    -in the meantime, boil 1/2 cup of water, 1-2 teaspoons of cake batter or vanilla extract if you have, and sweetener of choice.
    -Once the water is bubbling, immediately pour into the mixing bowl over the gelatin, and start mixing with an electric hand mixer or stand mixer for about 10-12 minutes. (add food coloring to make them pretty 😋)

    -You could use cocoa powder too for a chocolate one

    -Immediately transfer to an 8x8 in pan lined with parchment paper for easy removal

    -Store it in the fridge for about 2 hours or until set - You might wish to cover them in fridge, but I actually like how they become 'dense'

    By cake batter do you mean just dry cake mix?


    No, I was meaning 'cake batter' flavored extract (which I don't have, so have used vanilla extract instead)

    Alyssa's Healthy Vegan Oatmeal Bites, Buckwheat groats and hot chocolate made with cacao, protein powder and almond milk.

    Those bites are sooo good! I get them when they are on sale at Whole Foods.

    Try them with a smear of peanut butter😋
  • Our family is currently obsessed with Trader Joe’s bagels. They’re really good and have 9 grams of protein. We eat them for breakfast every day. Well, my husband and I don’t eat breakfast, so we eat them for lunch. I have mine with butter and peanut butter and feel full most of the day in a good way. Often, I don’t need a snack until supper. High carb is really the way to go for me. And I have lost 22lbs so far, and don’t feel deprived at all.

    Orange creamiscle bars. Fortunately, the brand I have is not crazy on the calorie side.

    For some reason I am currently obsessed with Triscuits. With cheese, with chocolate, with butter, or just plain.

    Well if you’re going there, Cadbury’s Christmas balls. Immediately followed after Xmas by the crispy eggs. That’s what got me here in the first place. A two bag a day habit for weeks and weeks upon months, sometimes three or four bags a day. I used to be so relieved after Easter when they’d finally disappear til the cycle started over again after Halloween. Won’t lie, I loved, adored, obsessed over them, hid them from family, salivated over if there’d be any half price bags after the holidays, connived where and when to buy them without embarrassing myself in front of cashiers.

    I promised myself both last year and this that I’d get a bag and blow the calories for a day, but I can’t bring myself to do it. At 200 calories for 16 pieces I can find a lot more filling stuff to eat.

    I always see these on sale for pennies after christmas but never got them because I assumed they would be dry and not very good. But since you like them so much, I may get one to try this year. Are they soft and moist?

    For what it’s worth (I’ve never had one because raisins are the most vile food on this earth) my family has always done various things to panettone because, yes, it is naturally a little dry. My uncle dunks his in coffee or cocoa. My mom will toast hers in the oven and put some butter on it. I want to make one myself one year that doesn’t have raisins as an experiment.
    I bet it would make some killer French toast!

    Leftover Panettone makes the best bread pudding - or bread and butter pudding. Either way it is utterly delicious. :)
