Cauliflower Pretzels?! Yup! I found these Whole Foods and had to give them a try! They are super macro-friendly and taste like pretzels! My hubby even said he thought they tasted better than pretzels. He was eating some of the “real” kind at the time he tried them, so that is a pretty…

#MacroFriendlyMonday12 — S’mores Jell-O Yogurt Pudding Bowl!
If you follow me on Instagram, it’s no secret that I have been enjoying a nightly #JellOYogurtBowl (#YJPBowl). My personal preference for them is to also add some sugar-free Jell-O pudding. I use either almond milk or cashew milk rather than regular milk which shaves off some calories and carbs. You could really use any…
Kaci’s Friday Find — Siggi’s Dairy Skyr!
