In my quest to stay on the healthy eating track, I want to share two of my latest food finds!

Beanitos- white bean chips. They are 10 net carbs per serving and they help with my tortilla chip cravings. They are super delicious with salsa, guacamole or by themselves and they come in so many flavors, but you gotta like beans! 

Waterloo Sparkling Water- GAME CHANGER! Zero calories, sugars and sodium and it tastes amazzzinggg! I miss the fizziness of pop, and this the job done. Black Cherry is my person favorite flavor and this is a perfect substitute for club soda if you are looking to watch your calories if you are having an adult beverage!!! It just jazzes it up! (I buy both items at Acme Fresh Market.) 

Of course, I can admit a bag of Doritos and some pop are much better- but, these will do! Happy eating!

Call it a "Guilty Pleasure" or just some "good ol' mind-numbing, mindless reality tv," we all have our go-to TV shows that we watch for whatever the reason... even though we know we'll never get that time back and likely won't gain anything useful from doing so.  Years ago my wife, Jenny, somehow got me to watch ABC's "The Bachelor" with her... then The Bachelorette... Bachelor Pad... Bachelor in Paradise... Bachelor Mountain... you get the point.  ANYWAY!!!  The New Season of The Bachelorette brings back Hannah B as the star - a former Miss USA Pagent contestant and a top contender on Colton Underwoods season of The Bachelor.  Of course there are a bunch of dudes that like pictures that were cut out of fitness and fashion magazines, but there are always a few 'bad apples' in every bunch.

Get to know Hannah B and her potential suitors HERE, and I will do my best to keep you up on the latest trainwrecks and deciet each week!  ~Ike

Darius Rucker celebrated a birthday today and that made me think about my favorite songs from him. There are so many, it was hard to choose just five, and then I challenged myself to put them in ranked order! What?!? Then of course, I have my favorites from his time with Hootie & The Blowfish, but that's another list for another day! 

What do you think about my choices? What are your favorites?

5: "Radio"

\

4: "Alright"

3: "Come Back Song"

2: "Don't Think I Don't Think About It"

1: "Wagon Wheel"

We played you new music tonight from rising country star Jameson Rodgers called "Some Girls" during Trending Tracks! The break up song is the lead single from his self titled EP which is out now. Jameson also has some writing credits under his belt for other artists including Florida Georgia Line's "Talk You Out Of It" and Chris Lane's "I Don't Know About You".

What do you think about his debut single? 

Jameson is opening for Luke Combs on his Beer Never Broke My Heart Tour along with Morgan Wallen, which makes a stop at the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse on November 16th!

My "Texter's Choice" question for Monday, May 13th was "Have you ever broken a bone in your body?" I gave three options for a response: Never, Once, or more than once. The results?? 41% said they had never broken a bone. only 19% said they've done it once. 40% claimed they broke two or more bones in their life. I found it interesting that most people either never have, or have multiple times. How about you?? Check out my daily "Texter's Choice" question every afternoon on WQMX at around 3:50pm...and hear the results when I announce them at 4:20pm!

I had the biggest craving for Cabbage and Noodles with Kielbasa, so yesterday I went for it. With some advice from my friends, some trial and error, a dash of guessing- it all turned out so good!

I cut up one head of cabbage, some onions, put in a half a stick of butter, some garlic powder, salt and pepper and let it cook. Then I added my kielbasa, more butter and then egg noodles once the other mixture was cooked and seasoned to my liking. I made a separate batch for me with lentil noodles for a lower carb recipe.

I was so impressed with how well it turned out! Leftovers for days!
