Learning to cook at 73

 I decided that as part of my weight loss journey that convenient is not necessarily good for you. I thought prepared foods are often stuffed with sodium for example. I decided to try #HelloFresh. It comes with fresh ingredients and instructions to put a meal together easily.I started this week. First meal was a good fit for caloric intake and veggie content. 

Taste great.

 I’m not much for counting so I use an app. There are several out there that interact with my iPhone health tracker. But this is not about an app. This is about a breakfast that can be enjoyed and will add little to the calorie count , very little to the timing of your morning activities and nothing to the sodium count.
