Fruit Filled Meringues 6WBMO

This weekend I ran across a recipe and I thought I had screenshotted it but I didn't but I remember it because I made it right after I found it.

I love meringues and this recipe is for meringues with fruit infused .

As a Type A I can have berries so I buy the bag of mixed berries at Aldi's. I took out my portion from the freezer which is a half cup serving and put it in my bullet and ground it down.
I also use pyure sweetener for baking. But I grind it down into a confectionery powder rather than granulated because I find the granulated doesn't always break down and sometimes can leave a grit.

I am pretty sure all body types can eat this, I'm not familiar what each person can have but I'm pretty sure that the berries can be enjoyed from everybody from type A to Type E.

If you are allowed berries for your breakfast this would be an excellent treat to make at night and just leave in the oven overnight to cool.


2 large egg whites ( can use 1/4 cup of pasteurized liquid whites)
1/2tsp lemon juice ( I use the bottled stuff)
3Tbs pyure or powder sweetner of choice
1/2tsp of vanilla or almond extract
Cinnamon (optional)
1/2 cup ground berries ( or finely chopped fruit of choice)

Preheat oven to 220.

In a clean glass bowl, do not use plastic or the eggs won't rise, beat your eggs with electric mixer. When they start to get foamy add your extract and lemon juice. Keep beating ,add sweetner one spoon at a time to fully incorporate.
Keep on high on till the eggs form stiff peaks.

Add in your fruit and sprinkle a little cinnamon on top fold everything together gently, (DO NOT MIX)  and using a regular tablespoon or cereal spoon place a dollop of meringue mixture onto a baking sheet lined with a Silpat or parchment paper.

Bake for 2 hours ON TOP RACK.  Turn off the oven and leave them in there for at least another hour  to crisp up.

They may not look very pretty but they taste like heaven. Especially to somebody like me who has a really bad sweet tooth.

Welcome Back 2020

Welcome back to the New Year 2020. I have to say I am very upset with myself for not sticking with my 6-week body makeover eating plan many years ago when I was on it. Back then I still had hormones and I was losing weight at about 5 lbs a week. I lost 42 pounds in 7 weeks. Life got in the way after that and I allowed myself to go off plan. Immature thinking on my part, I know. But after struggling for the last 3 years or so with keto and not losing a significant amount of weight I decided to go back to what I know works.

Facebook has a group of active 6 week body participants which is great because we have our support again. I only wish provida life sciences would bring the program back and the Forum. It was so much fun back then.
Somebody posted the link to the web Archive of the original Forum of 6-week body and being the recipe hoarder that I am and knowing how quickly the internet changes from day to day I decided to screenshot as many of my favorite recipes and some I have not tried so I have them. I'm hoping that rather than having to type out each recipe I can just upload the screenshot and it will be able to be seen properly on this blog. We shall find out. If not it's going to be back to typing which I really don't like.

Keto Tortilla /Wrap

I was so craving eggs cheese bacon burrito. I just had to make some tortillas. When I was doing the six-week body diet we made our tortillas with oat flour but that's not allowed on keto however we are allowed to use almond flour coconut flour or even Flax. So I made mine with almond flour based on the recipe that I used when I was doing 6WBMO.
1/4 cup of almond flour
3/4 cup of liquid egg white
2 tablespoons of water
1/4teaspoon onion powder and garlic powder ea.
salt and pepper and pinch of parsley.
I used my 12in red copper pan if you use a smaller pan you will change the macros for these however.
Heat the pan to medium heat spray a little nonstick spray let the pan get really hot. Poor a tiny bit of the mixture in the pan very quickly and swirl the pan you want a thin layer. Wait for it to cook on one side and flip.
That's it. The macros are for 4 servings (1 wrap ea.) which is what I got in my 12 inch pan if use a smaller pan you will get more servings and it will change the macros for each serving.

I Love Pizza

Since I'm working at trying to lose weight I don't get to eat pizza anymore when I do goes straight to my stomach. But I tried the fathead pizza last night.... it was soooo good.

I had bought my cheese from Aldi's. The cheese there has more water content than the regular Polly-o or store brand mozzarella cheese. So for that I added an extra almost quarter cup of almond flour.

I added pepperoni slices , some tomato sauce , which next time I will try paste instead since the sauce made my crust  a little soggy but that's okay cuz I used a fork to eat it,( oh the sacrilege. Haha)  I also added some cooked mushrooms peppers onions and since I didn't have fresh spinach I had a bag of frozen spinach I cooked a little of that in the pan as well, strained the water out and added that on top and more cheese on top of that.
Also I didn't split the crust like this recipe calls I used the whole thing.   I rolled it out between 2 pieces of parchment and made one large  pie that I cut into several servings.

Roasted Onion and Zucchini Bake

Wow! I have been away for a while I have not blogged here or on my craft blog in a while.

I'm trying again after gaining weight last year, getting frustrated, spinning my wheels going nowhere.

It's a new year although were three months in,  it's try , try again.

My friend Ashley is a Beachbody Coach and so I'm doing Beachbody on demand. It's pretty cool, the first month is free after that it's $40 every 3 months or $99 for the year which is actually the better bargain and I get to try all of their available DVDs online, so if you're into bootcamp they  got that. Yoga? They have that . Tai Cheng they have that.  I do a little bit of Brazil Butt and slim in 6 which is a milder cardio since I'm not 20 anymore. I also do rockin body.

I tried a new recipe today it's a baked onion and zucchini casserole.  I found it on Pinterest it's pretty good. I am not a big zucchini person I don't really like the greenness of it, although I have made zucchini patties and zucchini bread in the past with some success, kind of Hit and Miss if you know what I mean,  but this is good because I can hide the taste of the zucchini in the onion.
