Spice up your life

SPICES!!! We use a lot of dry seasonings with our cooking instead of sauces. If we do include sauces it is typically on the side....and it's most likely barbecue sauce. BUT we incorporate tons of different spices without sacrificing a ton of calories to go with our meals!

Below are our household STAPLES (Thank God for Trader Joe's) along with the homemade seasonings we make.
