    Tip o the day!!
    My favorite snack recipe. Too easy:
    Slice sweet potatoes very thin (I have a mandolin slicer that works wonders)
    Coat a baking sheet with coconut oil (I get jars of coconut oil from Trader Joe’s)
    Place slices on the baking sheet, can be close together
    Preheat oven to 375
    Bake for about 12 minutes
    Remove to cool (If they don’t crisp up, bake them for a few more minutes but keep an eye on them)
    Enjoy!

    Dip in guac for extra delish.

    These are awesome if you’re missing a crunchy snack.

    Also, if you just want a sweet snack, add cinnamon instead of sea salt :)

    Here’s a tip that’s not nutrition related but related to the challenge as a whole:

    For those tech savvy this may be an obvious tip but those not so much hopefully this can help you out. If you have a google account you can load your challenge spreadsheet as well as your 5/3/1 tracking spreadsheet into google drive (formerly named google docs) and the smart phone apps let you edit/view the spreadsheets on your phone so you don’t have to be glued to your computer and also be able to access it from anywhere. When it comes time to email them to chef the conversion from a google docs spreadsheet to XLS is seamless so you just download the file and email it over.

    Tip/Recipe – Chicken Sausage and Kale
    Fed this to friends this week and it was devoured.

    1 lb italian chicken sausage links (Whole Foods Tuscan in-house made chicken sausage is great)
    1 small onion chopped
    1 bunch kale de-stemmed and rough chopped
    2 tsp olive oil
    1 1/2 cup chicken broth

    Heat oil in a skillet. Brown all sides of sausage links over med-high heat. Remove from pan and slice each link in half on the diagonal. (Will not yet be cooked through – don’t nibble.)
    Lower heat to medium. Add onions and saute a few minutes until they start to become tender.
    Add kale and toss around to coat with onion / oil / sausage drippings mixture.
    Add broth and bring up to a slow boil.
    Add the sausage link halves on top of the kale, cover and reduce heat to low.
    Simmer for about 20 minutes until the sausage is cooked through. Enjoy!
