I'm not a registered dietitian though so I'm not qualified to give specific advice to people. Nor do I want that role: it is really hard to tell people how to eat.
What I would say though is that eating right takes preparation. I have found that my meals are a lot healthier and tastier when I have what I need in my pantry as opposed to just throwing something together.
Lately I've been using my crock pot and it works out really well when I have a busy afternoon planned. It's so awesome to walk in the door and smell a lovely, hot dinner all ready for me to serve and eat.
Yesterday I made a simple dessert with the apples I got at the farmer's market. I just chopped them up and mixed them with some Splenda Sugarblend, cinnamon, lemon juice and vanilla. A few hours later and I had a warm, comforting dessert.
Here's a photo of me in action with my applesauce-making:

I just bought a crockpot The one I received as a wedding gift was, um, misplaced(nice way of saying stolen). Anyway, I have only used the new one to take soup for a lunch at work -- I made it at home in a pot then warmed it up at work the next day. I would like to find some great healthy recipes to make in it.
Hi Robyn! Have you checked out the Eating Well website? You can search for slow cooker or crockpot recipes. I have found some good ones there. Good luck! Carrie
