alright kids... here it is .... easy way to get your protein in. You've

all

heard me talk about Knox Gelatine, I add it to my coffee in the morning, I

add it to bullion... I add it to sugar free hot chocolate etc.... all to the

tune of 6-12grams .. depending if I use one or two packages. * each package

is

25 calories. Its near tasteless... a good source of protein... a preferred

source of Protein by German Athletes in part because it protects your joints

...

etc .. do your own research.

Today, my friend Jeanne turned me on to ... Sugar Free Gummy Bears.

Imagine!!! Not bad at all ... and 48grams of Protein .. for a 3/4cup

portion. Near

ZERO carbs, depending on what sugar free sweetener you use. Ok here goes .

..

ready??

eight packages of Knox Original Gelatine UNFLAVORED .... one package of

sugar

free cool-aid or Crystal light .. a half cup water. Yep its that ////easy.

Put it in all a bowl .. mix ... ( I added five packages of splenda to mine )

then place in your Microwave for up to two minutes. I kept watching mine.

It boils up the sides a bit. Then pour it on a flat surface, I used a

dinner

plate which made a sort of fruit leather... then poured the other half into

an ice cube tray. Place it in the freezer for FIVE minutes ONLY ... .. do

NOT

let it freeze... it just roles right off the plate like plastic ... let it

dry

.... and tahhhh dahhhh... a zero carb, high protein snack to munch on here

and

there. HAVE FUN WITH IT ... BE A KID AGAIN .. this was a blast.

for those who are interested ... this recipe is 200 calories, 48grams

protein....zero carbs... zero fat .... It doesn't get much better than

that

folks!!!

PS. Saw you lost another pound Joan ..... " wonderful " .. good for you!!!

Mandy, this almost sounds too good to be true. It's on my grocery list, and

I'm going to try it. Thanks for the recipe, and thanks for noticing my 1#.

I celebrate each and every pound! Once again I love the scale, after having

a love-hate relationship with it for years! LOL

Today I'm working at eating normal and getting my meals in with higher

protein foods to see how close I can get without the protein bars. I see

the nutritionist again on Monday.
