Low Fat, Full of Flavor

Ok, so I am struggling with a gallbladder issue. I don't know yet at this point exactly what is going on. This has really changed how I have to eat. Nix the fried, fatty foods, no cheese, no full fat dairy, no red meat, no pork, no food!!  No, I don't think of it that way. I am looking at this as this is how I should really be eating anyway. I have had to be creative. I know, takes some thought and planning, ugh. For me, not so hard, for others like my hubby, maybe so. 

I had to lay off if Garlic for a few days. The horrors!!  Not too bad, really. I learned to use my other TS products, my Oil and Vinegar Assortment. Yummy balsamic vinegars of Modena and avocado oil to be exact. 

I made a yummy whole wheat pasta with veggies, avocado oil, a little mango balsamic vinegar of Modena and just a smudge if grated Parmesan cheese. Sooo good. 

Today, I did a "stir fry" in just a couple of teaspoons of olive oil with sweet potato, zucchini I and crumbled extra firm tofu and 2 teaspoons of Malt Vinegar Frencj Fry Seasoning. High protein and fiber, super low fat and talk about flavor!  Sooo good. What an awesome lunch. I refuse to be down and eating with no flavor!
