In less than two weeks of starting www.facebook.com/skinnymsslowcooker, they secured 77,000 “likes,” while helping people use healthy food to restore or maintain health. People are drawn to this healthy, easy lifestyle, which, as they explain, does not necessarily require a person to be overweight before beginning to change the way they eat.
The popularity of this “skinny” way of life is driven by Skinny Ms. devotion to flavor-filled, nutrient-packed recipes like Chicken Florentine, Sweet Potato and Kale Stew, Cranberry and Pumpkin Spice Granola, Pomegranate Poached Pears, Zucchini Tahini Spread and Vegetable Lasagna, just to name a few. The use of the word “skinny” explains the goal of helping people maintain the weight they view as healthy.
