See that bracelet I have on? Did you know it could save my life?? Do you know if you need one too?
.
It’s a medical ID bracelet with information about my diabetes and my penicillin allergy engraved on it. Information that if I were in a car accident or became unconscious for some reason, emergency responders would NEED to know in order to take care of me.
.
I did a blog post years ago all about the terrifying experience while I was pregnant with my oldest that taught me to never go a day without a medical ID on my body… You can read about it on the blog section of my website, just search “medical ID”. The one I’m wearing here is from @americanmedicalid ❤️
.
Also, one of my children hates pictures, and one lives for the camera 😂

Healthy Baked Chicken Fajita Casserole is live on the website now! And if the photo wasn’t enough to convince you to make this delicious casserole, here’s a few of my favorite things about it:
1) Everything you need in one pan! Veggies, protein, whole grains... no side dishes needed!
2) Only 10 ingredients 👍
3) Makes for some amazing leftovers the next day!
4) Takes about 15-20 minutes time to prep and then 30 minutes passive time while it bakes ❤️

How do you make a quesadilla? Is it one tortilla folded in half with fillings? One tortilla folded in thirds and then cut? Or two tortillas stacked on top of each other? Can you tell which way I did it here? @incredibleegg #sponsored
.
Egg quesadillas are one of my fave dishes to make for so many reasons: they’re nutritious, delicious, and affordable! And by adding veggies, we’re getting a great balance of fat, fiber, and protein!
.
This Veggie, Black Bean & Egg Quesadilla is delicious and perfect for breakfast,lunch, or dinner! Click the link in my bio for the recipe.
.
My favorite thing about this egg quesadilla recipe is the variety of textures we get with the eggs, veggies, and beans all mixed together! It’s also quite filling and satisfying thanks to the protein from the eggs and fiber from the veggies.
.
Even though most people typically think of eggs as a breakfast food, we love having eggs at all times of the day in our house. Eggs offer a good or excellent source of eight essential nutrients, including high-quality protein, plus varying amounts of many others and can help support many different healthy eating patterns, including people looking to balance blood sugars.

Not only is this diabetes-friendly Sourdough French Toast super delicious, but it’s also simple to make and won’t leave you with a sugar crash afterwards! #ad
.
You can find the full recipe at the link in my bio, but there’s actually only a few simple things you need to do to a traditional French toast recipe to make it more diabetes-friendly:
1. Swap sugar with Truvia® Sweet Complete™ All-Purpose Sweetener.
2. Swap out syrup for thawed frozen fruit. I used blueberries here.
3. Add in a plant-based fat like peanut butter, nuts, or seeds.
4. Use @Truvia® Confectioners Sweetener as a replacement for powdered sugar in recipes.
.
Truvia® Sweet Complete™ All-Purpose Sweetener and Truvia® Confectioners Sweetener sweeten and measure like traditional sugar in recipes with zero calories per serving! Use the product locator on their website to find Truvia sweeteners near you, or just have them shipped straight to your door from Amazon!

Test your blood sugar. Then treat or don’t treat. But wait, you’re going to exercise later. So then you eat a snack. But mid-workout you feel funny and check your CGM/test your blood sugar. 120. What to do? You suck down half an applesauce pouch and finish your workout. An hour later you’re 200 and trending upward so you give a small correction and hope the exercise doesn’t cause a delayed crash... AND IT JUST KEEPS GOING 🤯🤯🤯
.
What are your favorite best apps to help reduce decision fatigue for people with diabetes? I heard someone say once that diabetes is basically just a never ending to-do list, and I’ve never heard a more true statement. Decision fatigue is real and can be overwhelming at times for people with diabetes.
.
My top 2 most used apps are Dexcom Clarity (for evaluating my blood sugars) and Calorie King (for counting carbs, not calories 👍)

Wanna know how to build a Low(er) Carb Burrito Bowl?? My latest recipe gives you step by step instructions on how I make them at home!
.
And no, I’m not talking about a bowl of cauli rice and non-starchy veggies 😝🤦🏻‍♀️ BUT the average burrito bowl does typically top 90-100g carb which can be problematic when trying to balance blood sugars. My version has 40-50g depending on which options you choose. Click the link in my bio to read more!
.
And in the blog post I also give my tips for building a lower carb burrito bowl at chipotle!

Holy Costco finds!! @catalinacrunch is now at @costco across Texas 😱💃🏻🙌 20oz bags of their Cinnamon Toast cereal are in stores now!
.
My absolute favorite way to enjoy a Catalina Crunch is the old fashioned way with just a little milk, a bowl, and a spoon ☺️ breakfast cereal has just always been one of those foods that my blood sugars do not respond well to, so discovering @CatalinaCrunch a couple months ago was a total game changer for me! I’m so thankful to have a lower carbohydrate option (that tastes delicious) for breakfast cereal!
.
