Not everyone does well on raw veggies. Quite a lot of people do great on cooked veggies. Don’t let the raw veggies movement guilt you into thinking all cooked veggies are worthless to your body.
Summer Lunch: Broccoli Tuna… So Yummy
Long gone are the days for my family needing a quick lunch and we turn to mac’n cheese with hot dogs thrown in to be special 🙂 This tuna and broccoli dish was one pot and quicker than most other so called “easy quick meals.”
Easy Natural Tea: Super Healing!
If you saw me in the morning making tea you might think I was actually making lasagna! 😄 I make my tea somewhat like I make all of my recipes…I throw open the cupboard doors and see what would be healthy for me today. Any and all herbs in my cupboard are fair game to add for all their various health benefits. Making tea from loose leaf herbs (for example, dried basil, dried oregano, dried thyme, to name just a few) was one of my first acts years ago to getting super serious about self healing.
Tuna Avocado Salad
Inventing recipes is a thrill for me so to see my daughter dream up her own recipe for lunch was awesome! She threw this salad together with staple ingredients from our fridge…..tuna, avocado (mashed smooth, used in place of mayonnaise), sea salt, spices (like ground tumeric, in small amounts for the kids), cucumbers (sliced and used to dip into the salad). What’s the recipe you may ask….I just gave it to you! 😃 So simple!
Secret tip: Slightly fry the tuna and smashed avocado in Kerrygold to enhance the salty flavors.
Secret tip: The best flavor tuna, meaning full flavored without much fishy taste at all, is Kirkland brand from Costco.
Don’t forget to have your chlorella to bind to and eliminate mercury from your system from the tuna or anything else.
This was not the first time for my daughter to invent a new recipe but I was as always very encouraging. It takes bravery, time away from electronics 😋 and good predicting skills on how the flavors will turn out. In the end the family was very happy and well fed 😀 Thanks honey, great job!
Student Nurses Encouraged to Test out Natural Products
My favorite healthy grocery store continues to be Natural Grocers. They seem to love teaching out to the community and small groups about all topics of health. Today was no different when I saw many people in nursing fatigues milling about reading labels and discussing amongst themselves in the vitamin section. They were nursing students from Rasmussen College taking a tour and learning more about natural products and their benefits. Their instructor encouraged the students to test out natural products for themselves in order to share the benefits with their patients. How exciting to see natural health products receive importance in the medical world!
Heal Yourself with Food Only : Protein Power
20 years ago my husband Jack came home with a book called Protein Power. It outlined a diet that was high protein and very low carb. He planned to just lose weight with its information because up to that point all we could expect from a diet was to lose weight! As we read the book and followed the protocol, miracle changes in our overall health began to happen quickly. It forever changed our mindset of self-healing through food. Continue reading
Energy to Play with Your Family : Keep Improving and Finding Your Way to Better Health
Most years, we in west central Minnesota will have beautiful green grass and new spring flowers by April but not this year 2018. We had snow! Lots of new snow fell so softly all day long. I just had to put aside everything we were doing and get out and play in the last last last snow of winter. Continue reading
