Joyful Life with KJ

How many of you love drinking Dr. Pepper? Well, now you can recreate that amazing taste with this incredible recipe!

It's clear I love crappy gas station food. I can't help it. It's who I am! So...I HAD to replicate the Tornados we always used to get on our "travel stops". Masa Wonder Wraps, filled and fried. Holy...yum. Fillings I used (but get creative and do what sounds good to you!) Chicken And Chive Taquitos -1/2 cup canned chicken (or use your fancy roast chicken, whatevs) -1 1/2 TBS whipped cream cheese with chive (use plan with real chives if you want) -Sprinkle of shredded cheese (use your fave) -Few leaves of spinach chopped up Mix super well, add a small amount to your wonder wrap, roll up and seal with egg white. French Toast Taquitos -couple of cooked egg whites -tsp of on plan maple syrup -one chopped up sausage patty Mash up well with fork, add a small amount to your wonder wrap, roll up and seal with egg white. After filling, fry in a small amount of coconut oil on each side. EAT HAPPY! IF you have leftovers, reheat them in an air fryer and they will be super crispy!

This was yum. This coffee is everything.

This was a really yummy fix to my upset stomach. Almost immediately it calmed my tummy down. https://www.joyfullifewithkj.com/drinks-and-shakes/joyful-tummy-smoothie

Here is the link for the Pop Tarts! https://www.sweetashoney.co/keto-pop-tarts/ For the Creme Brulee Iced Latte... 1 cup strong brewed coffee (or use espresso, double brewed coffee or add 1 tbs instant coffee to your cup of brewed coffee) 1/2 cup almond milk 1 tbs brown sweetener (mix a little super sweet with molasses to make your own!) 1 tbs heavy cream Homemade caramel Mix coffee with milk, brown sugar and cream. Drizzle caramel on inside of glass, fill glass with ice, add coffee mix, top with a little Redi Whip and more caramel drizzle. For caramel, user 1-2 tbs butter, melt in a pan and add a tsp of super sweet blend, and a small drizzle of molasses. bring to a low simmer, add 2 tbs cream, add a pinch of xantham gum and whisk well, remove from heat and cool. Single Serve Caramel!

Thank God I had a guard on it. Remembering back to that time I exploded my blender because I didn't follow the instructions.

YUM. A perfect replacement food Shake n Bake. 1/4 cup super sweet Mixed well with 1 tsp Blackstrap Molasses 1 tsp mineral salt 1 tsp black pepper 2 tsp garlic powder 2 tsp paprika 2 tsp onion powder 1 tsp dry mustard 1/2 tsp cayenne Mix well Shake chicken thighs in bag to coat!

Healthy Tastes Better than junk food.

Here’s how I make my WWBB! https://trimhealthymama.com/ezine-june2019/wonder-white-blender-bread/ I add 1tbs of instant yeast bloomed with 3 tbs hot water I also replace 1/2 cup of the Baking Blend with oat fiber. When it comes out of the oven, sit for 5 minutes, then lay in one side for 15, then the other for 15. Do this twice.

Yes, I said BACON DUST. https://www.joyfullifewithkj.com/allthefriedthings/crispy-bacon-dusted-cauliflower

https://www.joyfullifewithkj.com/breakfast-coffee/chilaquiles This was FAR better than I ever expected!!

We went in with the attitude of staying healthy no matter what. We did it. All of our foods were Trim Healthy Mama compliant.

Easy Peasy Healthy Root Beer. Boom.

These were awesome!!! I replaced the almond flour with THM Baking Blend for a fuel pull!! Here’s the recipe: https://blissfullylowcarb.com/keto-bread-rolls/

Seriously - YUM. These recipes are from Trim Healthy Cookbook and Trim Healthy Future.

Ok, this stuff is just plain amazeballs. Go make it. Like right now. https://joyfilledeats.com/no-bake-cookie-dough-cheesecake/

Sometimes breakfast is a struggle - especially when trying to make difficult things like....toast?????

These were pretty good pancakes - but I'll say, they were a bit dry. However, adding the blueberry sauce made the perfect! Held me well for three hours as well! http://jj-househome.blogspot.com/2015/09/oat-fiber-pancakes-s-e-or-fp.html

I can't think of a more delicious dessert than PB cheesecake and this one is incredible! This is the recipe I followed. For the chocolate on the top, I melted a THM Butterfly Milk Chocolate bar. https://ketopots.com/keto-peanut-butter-and-chocolate-cheesecake

Seriously, I'm such a klutzy cook.

You guys - this recipe was the BOMB!! https://peaceloveandlowcarb.com/pizza-eggs-low-carb-keto-gluten-free/

This is SOOO good. Definitely tastes like a decadent coffee house treat, but it is a fantastic meal replacement for those following THM, Keto, or just want a quick tasty sugar free breakfast that will hold you for hours, but you can drink on your way out the door.
