I like to switch it up and use a variety of vegetables. Oh and sometimes I try flavored cream cheese. But note that many of the flavored cream cheeses are not fat free, so use sparingly. It's quick, healthy and oh so yummy!

Hi,
My name is Tara and I've been using Turbo Jam since August and I really love it. I always feel better after each Turbo Jam workout. However, I've hit a plateau and I am not sure about what I am doing wrong. I have a very balanced diet and I workout 6 days a week regularly. I've even incorporated different foods into my diet and different workouts, to change things up, but it doesn't seem to be working. I was just curious if you had any advice on how to get through a plateau. My e-mail is angel1015_26@hotmail.com and my myspace is http://www.myspace.com/iceangel2. I would love to hear from you if you get the time. Thanks!
