My Food Philosophy

It starts with realizing your connection with the Earth. The earth will always provide you with the food that you need. Whole food in its purest form. Not chemically laden formulas disguised as food. You will begin to appreciate the people who grow the food. You will not settle for a fruit or vegetable that was grown in the most clean way possible. Because, you see, the energy from these foods becomes a part of you when you ingest it. It's all about conscious eating. Being aware of not only what you put in your mouth but where is comes from. I choose to live a plant based and gluten free lifestyle. This blog is an evolution of sorts. It starts with my dedication to using whole foods and moves into my dedication to a plant based cooking lifestyle. All those recipes you didn't think you could have eating the way I do....Bon Appetite

Breakfast of Champions

I have mild adrenal fatigue. A large part of recovering is through nourishment. I don't eat gluten, dairy, or eggs and get asked all the time "What DO you eat then?" So here's a sample. With adrenal fatigue, a protein packed breakfast is preferred over a carb laden one or one that's filled with sugar.  I have found some balance by adding protein powder to oats or hot farina cereal. But, this breakfast is my favorite and it's a nice change to my breakfast routine.
I'm not the best photographer:)
But, trust me it's delicious

Avocado Toast: Enough said:) YUM!
Ener G brand gluten, dairy free bread (toasted) 
1/2 avocado, mashed
salt and pepper to taste

Chicken Sausage

1 lb. ground chicken
1/2 apple diced
1/4 onion diced
2 tsp. poultry seasoning

Combine all and form into patties. Put in 385 degree oven for roughly 25 minutes

These are easy to make at the beginning of the week and store in fridge.

Wild Blueberry Smoothie

1/2 banana 
1/2 cup frozen wild blueberries
3/4 cup water
1 scoop 3 grass blend powder
1 scoop collagen powder
1 slice lemon, squeezed
1 cup frozen spinach or kale

This is the breakfast of champions because of all the variety of nutrients involved. Avocado is a great fat and will keep you full longer. It helps balance the sugar in the bread so you don't have a sugar spike and then a drop. Chicken and collagen powders are proteins. Also very satiating and filled with amino acids.  Lemon in the smoothie is alkalizing. Wild blueberries are a superfood. Filled with antioxidants, they help your body heal from the inside out. I can eat this at 8:30 and not be hungry until noon.
