Can’t wait to make this
Looks Yummy! I will. Make the Mexican-inspired tofu bowl for lunch!! Thank you for all that you do for us conscientious consumers. Thank you for your reasonable price! ( I think that this is the email that I used….)
Look delicious! Thanks for sharing . Just we need to know how carbohydrates are in all your recipes. Thanks 😊.
Thank you yuca I will try . I’m happy with the app.
I love your app. It has totally changed my choices in food and the cosmetics I have used all these
years. I will not purchase anything, before I check it with your app. I had no idea how bad the main stream, highly advertised cosmetics were for you—full of toxic chemicals. Every chance I get
when shopping, I turn a fellow shopper on to your app. Also love your healthy recipes.
I LOVE YOU GUYS & THIS APP!
SIMPLE HEALTHY RECIPE REMINDERS ARE THE BEST! ❤️✌️
I love your recipes, and this recent round is no exception! Always fresh and healthy. This batch of the four Mexican recipes are all going into my menu over the next few weeks. One minor suggestion… for those of us that watch calories and nutrition, could you possibly start adding the basic info when you post these? There have been a few recipes I’ve made from your suggestions, then realized afterwards that in one meal I ate two meals worth of calories (based on my goals, of course). They were very good, but oops! (lol) I think it would help many of us decide in advance if we want to try one of these or not, OR it would also let us know in advance if we want to substitute ingredients for lower calorie options.
But even if you can’t do that, keep these coming!
Sure wish your recipes were printable. No button to print.
Ctrl-P will print it :). No button needed.
hey thanks!!!! it printed… and we will eat!
Love you guys I always wanted to do what you’re doing! Bravo🥰
