Diet Version of Strawberry Shortcake

Ok so the other day I was watching some youtube videos about strawberry shortcakes, and this one HCG P2 friendly came out! I wanted to share it with you because I tried it and it is delicious!

Slice 8 strawberries and put them in a container with 1 and 1/2 packet of Truvia. Leave them in the fridge for about 15 minutes. In this way the strawberries in contact with the sugar create a yummy juice. After you add the 1 tbs allowed of milk, 2 tbsp of Torani vanilla sugar free syrup and 1 Wasa cracker ( I bought the multi grain one, which is only 45 calories per slice). Mix everything together and Enjoy!!! Buon Appetito!

Organic Chai Tea

This is one of my favorite tea of the moment! It's from Tazo and the flavor is so rich, it will make your whole house smell good! It is even better with 1 Tbsp of milk in it! Yummy! Enjoy!

Extra Lean Beef & Tomatoes

This is one of my favorite dinner during my HCG diet P2 :)

Be sure to have the extra lean ground beef and mix it with chili powder, pepper, salt, and oregano. Then make it into a burger and grill it. Cut 1 tomato and season it with salt, pepper, and basil. There you have a delicious dinner that will not make you feel you are on a diet! Enjoy! Buon Appetito! :)

Grilled Chicken & Asparagus

Here is a recipe for HCG P2, and also for anybody else who wants to have a light and healthy dinner.

Marinade your chicken breast with some lemon juice, curry, salt, and pepper. Grilled chicken and asparagus. I poured some lemon juice, salt, and pepper on the asparagus too.

Serve with 1 Melba Toast. Enjoy! Buon Appetito!

Baked Cinnamon Apples with Vanilla Coffe

During My HCG diet it is hard to resist to cravings of something sweet, and yesterday I just had a creative idea for an after dinner dessert!

Make yourself a cup of coffee, with 1 packet of Truvia, 1 Tbsp of milk, and 2 Tbsp of the Torani Vanilla syrup... and there you have a delicious dessert that will satisfy your cravings during your diet! Enjoy! Buon Appetito!

Spinach Chips

Ciao!!!

If you crave a crunchy snack but you are on a diet and can not cheat, here is a wonderful and light snack idea!

Just preheat your oven at 400 degrees. Place the spinach leaves on a sheet of parchment paper. Sprinkle the spinach with salt, pepper, and any other spice you might like.

Bake for 20 minutes. Your oven will work as a dehydrator, leaving the spinach super crunchy! Enjoy! Buon Appetito! :)
