  • Their response to my cancellation email was interesting, if a bit tone-deaf: (added emphasis mine) Their workarounds (unnecessary had they just kept the feeds) increase technical knowledge requirement (and time on the app) significantly, making it difficult for my family members (and one friend) who have been…
  • It's a bummer. I don't usually lose sleep when apps change, as they all do. But removing a social feature -- really the only app with one -- seems like a bone-headed move. I, my daughter (researching other apps now), sister and niece will all move on now; it's reduced to just being a tracker, and a fairly pricey one at…
  • Yes. Severely reduced the value of MFP. Now just a tracker with a high price tag.

  • Super bummer. I need the support from certain folks on a regular basis. Now just a $50 calorie tracker? I paid for premium for me and my daughters -- mainly so we could easily connect and support. I'll be canceling mine (not that it matters to anyone!) and my girls. Just wish they would have announced prior to my April…
  • I combined the two -- using your recipe, only with the cauliflower rice mentioned in the original. Was (is still!) positively great, many thanks!
  • G. Hughes asian miso is my go-to bottled. Yummy stuff. My creamy Italian: 1C light olive oil 1/3C red wine vinegar 1T Italian seasoning 1T Dijon mustard 1/2t S&P Everybody in the pool (or mason jar). Shake like crazy. Serve. (throw a dollop of ff sour cream if you want creamier)

  • Zucchini boats are awesome, so much variety. I always have zucchini on hand-- zoodles, sauteed or grilled. Saute with dash of salt, pepper, and chili powder.

  • I use an old 1-button "Elite" model. Was given to me (used) years ago. Not sure how long, but I had it before moving to this house 12 years ago. Works perfect for white/brown rice. I do basmati on stove top.
  • Just ignore typical vinaigrette oil ratios. It needs SOME oil, it doesn't always need much. My go-to's: KB's balsamic 1T evoo 1T balsamic 1t dijon 1t honey S&P In a jar, shake like mad Orange vinaigrette 1T evoo 2T mandarin or orange juice (small single-user cups perfect, in water) 1T red wine vinegar 1 garlic clove,…
  • Carrot chips, bell peppers... If really craving a chip, I'll go through a bag of Quest protein chips. KB
  • Spot on about the tuna salad. I make big quantities at a time, always have it available. Think proteins and veggies. I love zucchini, prepared several ways. Cauliflower rice is a staple now. We have a big salad with almost every meal, with my dressing. Happy to share recipes if I knew what interested you... KB
  • Here's the one I use from a Sprouts store. I'm sure it's just branded, so someone else must make it... KB

  • Hmmm... my knives and cast irons are essential, though likely not a "gadget." I love my vitamix, spiralizer and food processor. I have a kick-*kitten* slow cooker that I can sear meat in and cook gravy. No need for other skillets or pans. I use an egg slicer for eggs and strawberries...
  • Keep shaking things up in flavor... For all: Preheat oven to 400˚ Bake 30-35 minutes Pesto Chicken Bake 3–4 chicken breasts Salt and pepper to taste 4–6 Tbsp. basil pesto 1–2 Roma tomatoes, sliced 1–2 cups mozzarella cheese Place chicken breast in a baking dish. Season chicken with salt and pepper to taste. Spread pesto on…
  • I use the Brieftons Spiralizer. Love it. I spiralize almost any veggie. My favorites (besides zucchini) include beets, jicama, rutabaga, cucumbers, carrots (need big ones) and fennel. Also apples... Yes, some of those could as easily be thin-sliced with a mandolin, but spiralizing (my opinion) makes them simpler to use in…
  • Do you mean skillet sear/finish in oven like a steak? I've never thought to do that with chicken... will try it.
