I have some clean recipes to share today.  Tomorrow I will be sharing my favorite foods and where to buy them!  Today is day 23 for me and I am down to 137.  That means I'm down 10 pounds.  Yippee!!!!


I LOVE this recipe for Caesar dressing!!!!  You will want it all the time!!!!!!!!!!!!  Make a bigger batch and use it on your salads!!!


Caesar Salad  (2 servings)


1/2 c Parmesan cheese grated (get fresh not already grated)
1 Tbsp Greek non fat yogurt
4 cloves garlic, minced
juice of half a lemon
1Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
Black pepper
8 leaves romaine lettuce, washed and torn (not prepackaged salad- fresh)


Combine first 6 ingredients in a bowl and whisk well.  Pour dressing over lettuce and toss to coat leaves.  I like to put my salad in a gallon size Ziploc bag and pour the dressing in, shaking well to cover all leaves.


If you love mashed potatoes you will LOVE this recipe.


Garlic Mashed Cauliflower


1 head of cauliflower
