It's been a few years but I think this may be where I adopted the recipe from. I don't remember how or why I ended up with the quantities, but they work great! I use Trader Joe's almond meal, that's the good stuff right there, and Barney Butter, that's my kryptonite, makes me weak in the knees.

Sometimes I'll add in raisins, just fold into the mix after everything else. I tell myself every time I won't eat the whole batch in one sitting. So I end up grabbing half, eating them, then getting up again and grabbing the second half. Two, two sittings!

Or you can ground up almonds or any nuts really (if you don’t have an allergy) and pulse them almost to a flour. It should be really fine and then you can add it to all your jelly’s or shower gels!

And the almond powder doesn’t disintegrate in hot water like a salt scrub does so you have more scrubby time!!

google says there's no official difference between almond meal & flour. both are just finely ground almonds.

i was using 1 serving of trader joe's just almond meal at roughly 180 calories and 7g protein.

So, par cook the veggies. I do this with my meats and veggies. I cook the portion I intend to eat that night longer than the portion I intend to eat later. It makes it much better in flavor and texture than cooking it completely and reheating it.

The other thing you can do is explore new veggies/new ways to prepare them. You can try riced cauliflower or riced broccoli. My personal favorite is mashed cauliflower. I add some goat cheese to it as well. Yum. I also own a spirlaizer that I use to make zucchini noodles. Try making zucchini fries. I use almond flour instead of bread crumbs (if you have a trader joes nearby it's much cheaper in store). You can also do it with eggplant.
