    I struggle with meal prep and finding good ideas. Thank God for you! The recipes and ideas are amazing. Being a diabetic it is so hard to eat healthy and keep up with busy schedules. Thanks again for sharing.

    Hi Erin,

    I just found your site and I absolutely LOVE it! Question, do you have 1-2 snacks/day? Or how do you work those in?

      Hi Sam! I usually have quite a few snacks throughout the day…whatever it takes to hit my macros. It changes everyday. Sometimes I’ll have just a few snacks, sometimes I have 6 or 7 throughout the day.

    Hi! I was wondering if putting the slow cooker recipe on high would ruin it?! I don’t use my slow cooker often cuz I’m Not home for long periods of time unless I’m sleeping!

      Hi Chelsea! You could definitely put the Thai Chicken in the slow cooker on high for 2 1/2 to 3 hours instead of cooking it on low for 6 1/2 hours. I personally like cooking it low and slow better because the chicken is more tender that way. You’ll still be able to shred it and it will taste fine if you cook it on high though!
