This time of year, fresh fruit is abundant and delicious! Try and skip the refined sugar; a great place to start is skipping a soda or opting for a cup of tea with honey instead of loads of refined sugar. Even being mindful of our sugar intake is a good place to start.
OR
GO ALL IN and see how you feel when you cut out sugar for a week. It’s really hard to do because it feels like on every label you read, there’s some kind of sweetener listed (usually, it’s multiple), but the benefits are well worth the effort. Eating cleaner and simplifying by eating local fresh veggies and fruit is perfect because there are no labels to read! Nature couldn’t have made it easier for us.
But I acknowledge it’s tough to curb the cravings! Local honey is a great way to add a hint of sweetness while you are easing off refined sugar. Local honey is also packed with so many other benefits. Is anyone cutting back on sugar right now? Or have you tried it in the past, any tips to share? Tell us about it in the comments below. We can often learn from one another in virtual communities like Go! Garrett County, where support and compassion are what we strive to bring forward.
Once again, these students were entertaining and put together a great video for us! Thanks, Chef, for passing on your knowledge and talents to the community! We appreciate all the time and effort that goes into the creation of these videos.

Honey is an excellent treat!
This looks so good and something I would like to try.
This looks like a great recipe!!
Yum!!
Definitely healthier than refined sugar.
The pancakes sound delicious. Watch for added sugar in almond milk. There are several varieties on the shelves. I opt for the unsweetened varieties.
When trying to cut back on your sugar intake start by making your portion sizes smaller than usual. For instance, instead of having 12 ounces of soda, pour yourself 8 ounces. In place of a piece of cake after a meal allow yourself 2 Hershey kisses. As time goes on you will most likely be able to reduce those portion sizes even more.
Thanks students! I enjoy local honey. Try different kinds.
That looks yummy! Thanks for another great (and fun) video.
Looks delicious!
Love Honey!
I see a few places towards ohiopyle that sell honey. Never knew it was a big hobby
We love local honey!
My family loves honey – we’ve found many different types and they all taste a little different. It’s especially good on rolls instead of butter. Thanks for the reducing the serving size idea, Amy! That way you still get the sweetness you crave but it won’t be as damaging to your hips!!
Can’t wait to try these.
