Replacement Resolution with Musselman's Applesauce


Casey has the Journey Gym, and me? I have my own will power and commitment as a way to help me get in shape this year. 
So when Musselman's Applesauce introduced me to their "Replacement Resolution" I was intrigued. 

I thought, "What the heck, I can replace a snack a day with an applesauce" and you know what? It's working! I changed nothing about my diet, except I am no longer eating my granola bar as a mid morning snack. Instead I am eating one applesauce cup. 

I am feeling better, and looking better and plan to keep it up for the rest of the year!

I also found out you can cut oil out of your baking by replacing it with applesauce! How cool is that!
Here is a good conversion chart. 

Chart 1 

Basically you use EXACTLY a 1:1 ratio. 

I am also really excited to try this Applesauce Doughnut recipe with the kids, they are baked not fried!!
 
Apple Sauce Doughnuts
