or high calories, and it helps get in the right amount of fruit for the day.

Ingredients:

• 1 bunch kale
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil or olive oil
• 1 teaspoon seasoned salt (I use Himalayan Pink Salt)

Directions

1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a non insulated cookie sheet with parchment paper. ( I just put mine straight on the cookie sheet)
2. With a knife or kitchen shears carefully remove the leaves from the thick stems and tear or cut  into bite size pieces. Then wash and thoroughly dry kale you can use a salad spinner. Drizzle kale with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning salt.
3. Bake until the edges brown but are not burnt, 10 to 15 minutes.               

Then eat up:)  So good!!! Be sure to make two batches-chances are they won't last long....

At the end of the day and a healthy snack

Well, at the end of this here day, I have sucessfully:

possibly broken my pinkie toe, made a fabulous dinner consisting of:

a vegtable, tofu, pasta fagoli soup

(unfortunately I forgot to put the noodles in-hahah-at least it is less carbs)

salad with quinoa, italian bread (store bought), and black bean brownies.

It has been a very good day-busy and healthy bite by bite.

What steps towards healthy living have you accomplished?

Here is one of my favorite snacks:

Ingredients for Apple Sandwiches:

2 small apples, cored and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch thick rounds
1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)
3 tablespoons peanut or almond butter
2 tablespoons semisweet chocolate chips
3 tablespoons granola

Method

If you won't be eating these tasty treats right away, start by brushing the apples slices with lemon juice to keep them from turning brown.

Spread one side of half of the apple slices with peanut or almond butter then sprinkle with chocolate chips and granola. Top with remaining apple slices, pressing down gently to make the sandwiches. Transfer to napkins or plates and serve.
