Pizza
Why We're Obsessed:
Gooey cheese, tangy sauce, a delicious crust... Pizza is basically perfect. Unfortunately, it's often super fattening and TOO EASY to have delivered right to your door. For these recipes, it's all about creative crusts and smarter toppings!Sneak Peek into OBSESSED! Chapter 4: You Wanna Pizza Me?

Burgers & Fries
Why We're Obsessed:
Technically two foods, but they make one dynamic duo. And it doesn't get more quintessentially American than hamburgers 'n French fries. They're a couple so complimentary, we hope they NEVER split up. But between all the bread, the often-fatty patty, the endless toppings, and the oily fries, it's easy to think that they can't fit into a healthy lifestyle. Good thing we know how to fix 'em!Sneak Peek into OBSESSED! Chapter 6: Welcome to Goodburger

Chocolate
Why We're Obsessed:
Do we really need to explain to you why we're obsessed with chocolate? It's CHOCOLATE. And it goes beyond the creamy sweetness of an actual chocolate bar... Anything infused with chocolate flavor makes us happy: cake, brownies, cookies... YUM. Of course, those things often come with heavy ingredients and high calorie counts, but we know how to solve those pesky problems...Sneak Peek into OBSESSED! Chapter 13: Choc' It to Me!

Peanut Butter
Why We're Obsessed:
Last but absolutely not least, we have peanut butter. Creamy, rich, sweet & salty peanut butter. PB has its nutritional benefits, but it's also fat and calorie dense. Luckily, we have a few tricks up our sleeve, so you can enjoy peanut butter goodness without taking in a day's worth of calories...Sneak Peek into OBSESSED! I'm Obsessed with... Peanut Butter!
