The Little HMR Tricks I have found

Ok, here are my secrets to share with anyone on HMR. I hope some more HMR people will find my blog so we can interact more. That would be fun.

Strawberry Dip: I take some nonfat sour cream and put Splenda in it until it gets sweet. It's wonderful on Strawberries. I dip them in it. Sort of like yogurt. By the way, is nonfat yogurt allowed? You can also make some of this up and put berries in it. That's very good as well.


Strawberry/Banana Shake: Ok, so not too orginal, but sure is good. Just add frozen strawberries and half a banana to the vanilla HMR 120 Shake. Oh, so very good and thick!

Zesty Salad: Take a green salad. Add onions, fresh mushrooms, bell pepper strips and whatever other veggies you like. Top with Trader Joe's peach salsa for a real zip. Use instead of a dressing. Mighty good stuff. There's also a pineapple salsa that is great.


My original HMR counselor told me I could have air popped popcorn, so I bought one of those microwave types. I make my popcorn, spray with the "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" spray that has no calories per spray, though I use this lightly, and then I add garlic powder to it and mix. Pretty good.
