Sugar Free Carrot Cake For That Special One

My husband loves Carrot Cake and I have never even considered making it myself until I received a recipe in the mail of a traditional fattening Carrot Cake...
So I began to tweak just to see if I could do it.  I was pleasantly surprised at the results!
When it comes to baking you need to find a sugar free sweetener that you like.
I actually blend sweeteners so that I like the sweetness and texture.  You will need to
try a few until you find the one that is right for you.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup Splenda
3/4 cup Stevia in the raw
6 packets Luckyleaf Stevia
1 cup of unsweetened applesauce
1 egg
2 eggwhites
1 cup Almond flour
1 cup oat flour (gluten free) I take old fashioned oatmeal and blend until flour texture
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp sea salt
2 cups grated carrots
Frosting
2 pkgs Fat free or 1/3 less fat Philly Cream Cheese
1 cup splenda
1 cup Stevia in the raw
1 tbsp vanilla extract
Cake:
Blend the sweeteners apple sauce and eggs in the mixer.  In a separate bowl add the flour, baking
soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.  Add the dry ingredients into the mixer with the sweetener
and eggs and applesauce.  Blend and add in the grated carrots.  Pour into your favorite sheet pan and cook at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
Frosting
Place all ingredients in a bowl and blend together with a hand blender
You can use this recipe for cup cakes and donuts.
Enjoy!

Natural Help For Depression

Natural Options To Fight Depression Robin Williams a successful actor with assets over $50 Million, three children and a wife, why would he take his own life?  I don't think anyone one of us can pass judgment on someone battling with so many demons and struggling with the "D" word Depression. However, there is more to life than money and success, as a Christian based holistic nutritionist I look at Spirit, Mind and Body and if they are all in balance sadness and mild to moderate depression may creep up on you, but you can fight back....      The very first step to battling all obstacles in life is recognizing that there is a higher power than you, that you cannot control every aspect of your life and definitely cannot control what's going on around the world.  I may be criticized for saying higher power rather than God or Jesus, but I believe in baby steps especially if a higher power is new to you. If you feel hopeless or sad...pray, believe me prayer chang

Quick Way To Change A Habit

As most of you know humans are creatures of habit and breaking bad habits or creating good habits is not easily done.  One tip that I have used to create a good habit and insure success is to make a change for a short period of time.  You Can Do Anything For Just  3 Days! For example, let's say you want to lose 25 pounds and if you look down that long road ahead of you called life, you may become tired before you even start!                                                                                      Plan your change for a short period of time, let's say for 3 days.  When you have accomplished this goal, set a new date for another 3 days or try 4 days the next time.  According to Dr. Karl H. Pribram, "Our behavior is governed by images of achievement and without these images we cannot succeed in accomplishing our goals." Find something you enjoy and can stick with it!

Digestion is when our body breaks down the foods we consume and then distributes the nutrients to the entire body for rebuilding, healing and maintaining.       Over 50% of  all cancers are found in the digestive system , digesting food is becoming a national problem.  If you do not digest your food properly a list of problems and diseases will begin to pop up...There are several reasons for this and a huge part is the AMERICAN DIET!
