Recipe for this awesome soup!!

Only 165 calories for the whole thing!

1 cup of water- 0

1.5 cups of vegetable stock- 15

1 small can of sliced carrots- 35

1.5 cups of fresh baby spinach- 10

.5 servings of egg noodles- 105

Obviously calories vary by brand and you could use fresh carrots or add other ingredients if you’d like this is just how I made mine

Here's the scientific formula to work out how many calories you burned while exercising:

Duration of the exercise (minutes) ×MET of the activity×your weight (kg) ×3.5

Then you divide the answer of the above calculations by 200

The MET is the metabolic equivalent of the exercise you're doing, so Google the METs of the exercise you're doing and sub the number into the formula

Here's an example of an hour of intense boxing:

60×7.8×53.3×3.5= 87 305,4

87 305,4 ÷ 200= 436 calories burned

Here's a link to a website that lists the METs of different activities:

lowcal + healthy chocolate chip oatmeal cookies

You don’t need me to tell you about the charm of chocolate chip cookies, so I’ll hop right into this magical recipe. 

These delicious cookies are only 62 calories per serving! Even better, they don’t have any refined sugar, oil/butter, milk, or gluten. As long as you use vegan chocolate chips, these cookies are vegan. They won’t make you feel heavy or sick, unlike Tollhouse cookies, and have a decent nutritional content that’ll make you satisfied and energized. Add some raisins for a sweet, fruity boost! 

ingredients 

1 cup + 2 tbsp old fashioned oats, blended into flour (338)

½ tsp baking powder (0)

½ baking soda (0)

1 tsp sea salt (0)

⅓ cup cold applesauce (33)

2 tbsp maple syrup (109)

splash of vanilla (0)

⅓ cup sweetener (0) or coconut sugar (238)

¼ cup sugar-free chocolate chips (200)

optional: ½ cup raisins (90)

preperation

Whisk oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. 

In a separate bowl, whisk applesauce, maple syrup, vanilla, and sweetener/coconut sugar. 

Fold wet ingredients into dry. Don’t worry about over-mixing—there’s no gluten in the recipe. Add your mix-ins and gently fold them into your dough. 

Let your dough chill in the fridge for about 10 minutes. In the meantime, preheat your oven to 350F.

Roll roughly 2-3 tbsp of dough at a time into balls and place them evenly on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. For more uniform sizing, use a cookie scooper. For flatter, traditionally-shaped cookies, press them down a little. You should yield 10 to 11 cookies.

Sprinkle sea salt over the cookies. Bake for about 12-15 minutes. 

Let cookies cool for five minutes before enjoying. 

Enjoy!

115 Calorie Muffins!

This recipe can be adjusted to be Vegan and Gluten Free!

You read that correctly! This is a 115 Calorie Muffin Base! Muffins tend to be quite high in calories so I apologize it can't be lower! These flavors are all under 125 calories, but I imagine you can experiment with the base which is a little under 100 calories!

This was inspired via a request by singing in the rain!

Christmas Pinwheels - 234 kcal/5g protein

Servings: 8 - 234 kcal/5g protein per pinwheel

1 package (8 oz) Pillsbury Original Crescent Roll Sheet*

1 batch Vegan Pistachio Pesto (or 1 cup of any pesto)

8 sun-dried tomatoes (chopped/cut)

1. Sprinkle some flour on your working surface and roll out the Pillsbury Crescent Dough Sheet, being careful to not pull it apart. Pinch together any of the perforations, making sure it is one continuous sheet of dough.

2. Spread the pesto over the whole sheet and sprinkle sun-dried tomatoes.

3. Take the shorter side and roll up the sheet of dough being sure that the end is pinched together so nothing falls out.

4. Cut off the sad-looking ends that might not be exactly perfect, then cut the roll into 8 pieces. Note, you can still cook the ends but they won't look as cute as the other parts of the rolls.

5. Bake at 375 degrees for 12-16 minutes or until the edges get a golden brown.

6. Enjoy your festivities!
