Cooking
Recently I posted a tip on Twitter that if you put an onion in the freezer for 10 minutes you won’t cry when you cut the onion. (My Go Fit Girl! Twitter tweets also post on Go Fit Girl!’s Facebook page, which is where I get most of my comments.) My cousin mentioned that if [...]
In a quest to try new things for this month’s Monthly Challenge I grabbed an acorn squash at the grocery recently. I wasn’t sure what to do with it. So I went online to find some recipes. I would have made a soup. But I didn’t have the other right ingredients or enough squash. First [...]

Monday I talked about my munchie-infused snacky day. I mentioned my high-veggie dinner and neighbor/friend/GFG! reader Jessie wanted to know more about my dinner. So let’s talk veggies (and, of course, I will have to get a shout out to protein … Why? Because I am on a protein kick and protein is good for [...]
Today I am going to share a recipe with you, which was shared with me by my friend Monica. Monica had lunch one day recently with a friend who replicated a recipe from Cafe Gratitude.
