Baked Apples

If you have an achy sweet tooth, don’t turn to chocolate! You can easily satisfy it with baked apples. To save time cooking time, dice an apple into small pieces, sprinkle on cinnamon and nutmeg and bake for 10-15 minutes. It’s better than apple pie and much more simple.

Tahini

Tahini is a sesame paste that is so versatile and resembles peanut butter in many ways, which makes it a great substitute! What tahini has that peanut butter doesn’t is tons of protein and no added sugar. You can put it on toast or a banana, and you’ll be satiated in no time.
