Breakfast This Morning

I have been eating vegetables and fruit for my main diet and I feel so much better.

Vegan Beanie Thing :-)

I concocted this recipe today after watching a Vegan video. I don't have a name for the recipe yet, but it is yummy. I also don't have amounts of ingredients listed; I just added ingredients and tasted as I went. Sometimes it's fun to fly blind.

                                                  VEGAN BEANIE THING :-)
Equal amounts of garbanzos and black beans ( I used canned because that's what I had)

Mixed peppers (chopped)
Onion (chopped fine)
Pineapple (chopped)
Walnuts (chopped)

Garlic (diced)

Parsley/Cilantro (chopped)

Herbs/spices: basil, thyme, oregano, celery leaf, rosemary

red pepper, black pepper, salt, turmeric, cumin...
Olive oil
Balsamic vinegar

Mix it all together, chill and serve on romaine leaves. Raw baby carrots were great on the side. 

I hope you try this recipe. I will be posting Vegan recipes as I create them.

Forks Over Knives (Reposting)

I highly recommend this important film on nutrition  (I watched it on Netflix Instant play)

FORKS OVER KNIVES examines the profound claim that most, if not all, of the degenerative diseases that afflict us can be controlled, or even reversed, by rejecting our present menu of animal-based and processed foods.

One Week Away from Healthier Skin

Skin cells regenerate every seven days.Since the food you eat fuels new cell production, you are on your way to healthy, vibrant skin if you add these veggies to your diet, starting today.

• KALE

• CUCUMBERS

• AVOCADOS

KALE has one of the highest levels of magnesium and calcium (compared to other vegetables). It is rich in Vitamins A, C, E and K. These vitamins promote cell growth.


CUCUMBERS are full of a healthy enzyme containing water and, since hydration is a key ingredient for healthy skin, adding cucumbers to your diet is a good idea. Cucumbers also contain other skin boosting vitamins and minerals (magnesium, potassium, zinc, iron, folic acid, calcium and vitamins B and C).

AVOCADOS contain "healthy fat" that help our skin retain its moisture. They also contain riboflavin, niacin and vitamins A and E. Avocados have been shown to help with eczema and psoriasis ( when used both externally and internally).

Remember, you are what you eat!
