    Do you have something in the US that features similar to Moulinex Cookeo ?? it is kind of a smart electric fast cooker. More than fitness, my goal in 2016 is to be friend again with cooking (feels like a chore for the moment). I am looking into buying this neat life-saving piece of equipment and I am sure you would have tons of ideas how to use it with your healthy recipes. There must be a way to cook healthy delicious and fast hassle-free meals…right? πŸ˜‰

    Trader Joes now sells organic cauliflower rice in the frozen section! So convenient for people like me who don’t have a food processor. πŸ™‚
