Maple Pecan Cauliflower is my go-to for a quick healthy lunch. There is a big debate in the south on the proper way to say pecan. Some pronounce it “P-can” and others, “P-con”. Some would even debate how I spelled the pronunciation! But, I think everyone can agree that you either love them or hate them. And boy, do I LOVE them. If you’re like me and love pecans, you are going to love this maple pecan cauliflower recipe. This dish makes a great side, lunch, or you can make it a complete meal by serving it with rainbow quinoa. I first experienced a similar dish in my…

Acai Superfood Bowl Most mornings I drink a green smoothie. However, sometimes I want a change so I switch it up with either an acai bowl or overnight oats. Remember that these ingredients can be changed up based on seasonal availability so get creative. I also vary my omegas foods from chia, flax, hemp or whatever form I have available. Eating a variety of foods is key as it gives you a wide spectrum of nutrients plus eliminates food intolerances. Enjoy and be healthy. As always, purchase all ingredients local and/or organic. I use the One Degree Organic Foods gluten-free oats as they go the extra mile and…

After completing a food intolerance test, I learned I was intolerant to all sugars (honey, agave, etc) and dairy so I needed to find substitutes. My goal was to go sugar free for 4-6 months and at about month three, I wanted cookies! I found a recipe, made a few modifications and finally came up with this! Like pure stevia sweetener, the monk fruit sweetener is highly concentrated so a little goes a long way. The key is using pure monk fruit to elminate fillers. My favorite is pure organic monk fruit sweetener from Julian Bakery. Ingredients: 1 cup of Almond Flour 1/2 tsp Organic Pure Monk Fruit…

These treats are delicious for dessert or breakfast! The original recipe called for dried apricots but since I had dried mango on hand, I substituted. Be sure to use organic for all ingredients as conventional fruits and nuts contains toxic preservatives. Nuts, especially walnuts, can also contain BHT as a preservative which has to been linked to increased risk of cancer. Dried fruits may contain sulphur dioxide (sulfites) which has been linked to respiratory issues. The #1 Rule is to read ingredient labels and buy organic! 1 c of dried organic apricots or mango 1 c. pitted dates 1/2 c raw organic almonds 1/2 c raw organic cashews 1/2…

My son made this for me on Mother's Day which was a wonderful gift! For a meatless version, you could easily substitute tofu, tempeh or just omit the chicken as it would still be delicious. Serve the salad room temperature or chilled. As always, be sure the ingredients are organic, or grown without pesticides and nonGMO. 1/2 cup of diced celery 3/4 cup of grated carrot 3/4 cup shredded cabbage 2 tsp minced garlic 3 cups of cooked quinoa 1 1/3 c cooked and diced organic chicken 1/4 cup diced green onion 1/4 c Buffalo wing sauce 1/2 T lemon juice 1/2 tsp sea salt (pink Himalayan is my…
