Guilt Free: Protein and Antioxidant Packed Salad
I love salads because they’re usually pretty lite and there’s such a variety of different kinds. I always add salmon or chicken to my salad to get some protein. I like to make sure my salad is packed with protein and micronutrients so that I get all of the health benefits. Some salads can sound…

Lyssy’s Eats: Kona Grill
Kona Grill is one of my favorite restaurants because it has two of my favorite things: salmon and sushi. Whenever I go there I order the same appetizer and then always have a tough decision for my entree. The menu has a wide variety of options ranging from salads, sushi, chicken, and salmon. I’ve heard…

Guilt Free: Chocolate Peanut Butter Oats
I absolutely love eating oats for breakfast. They're an excellent carb source and keep me full all morning long. I usually eat microwaveable packets because they're so convenient, but they can include unnecessary sugar (this is why they taste so good). This recipe that Jon created has no added sugar because of the sweetener, and tastes almost like you're eating dessert. The PB2…
Lyssy’s Eats: Pies’N’Thighs

Trader Joe’s Top Five
As you all probably know by now, Trader Joe's is my favorite grocery store in the world. I love everything about it except how chaotic it is in NYC, but that's not their fault. I could just wander the aisles all day long and look at the new items. Throughout the years I've established my…
Guilt Free: Almond Butter Protein Cookies
I recently purchased some PES peanut butter protein powder because I heard it's the best protein for baking, and I was curious. I love peanut butter cookies, but recently I've been all about almond butter. I made this recipe so that I could satisfy my sweet tooth without busting my diet. I will say that…

Lyssy’s Eats: Shiro
Jon flew in to see me for Easter, so last Friday we had a much needed sushi date night. We hadn't seen each other for about six weeks, and during that time we always talked about getting sushi, so needless to say we were excited. We went to Shiro in Novi. I have been there…
