How do marinades weigh in regards to eating sugar? ie: a marinade for meat that uses Dijon mustard before cooking.

annefood Good thinking on the go!

msantiago Ooooh! I wouldn’t have thought to add the apple and tangerine! I’m going to try that!!!

annefood Awesome @katrandall ! You could always throw some plain yogurt in there for added protein without changing the flavor.

katrandall @annefood great idea!
