No longer do I have the luxury of picture taking and posting. I am currently in an awful position where I don't like the kitchen I am stuck with at the moment. Yet, still I manage to cook and try new things.
So, a few months ago I changed my diet. I was always health conscious and rarely did I purchased pre-packaged foods. I cooked for my family almost nightly. Fried foods were minimal and veggies had to always be on the plate. So, it was not a big step/change for me to downgrade to an almost vegan/vegetarian diet.
Because of health reasons, I cut out dairy, sugar, red meats/pork (I do eat my bacon tho uncured and vegetarian fed) and gluten/flour. I also limited my alcohol intake also. Sometimes I cheat, but rarely do I feel the need to. I've revamped many recipes and because of my job with a young woman who has gut issues I have to cook for her and the combinations of veggies that I cook are great ways for me to try it before I do it at home. If she likes it, it's a keeper. ;D lol (without the seasonings, so imagine if I added seasonings!)
Mashed Root Vegetables instead of Mashed potatoes
Collars/Kale, Sweet Potatoes, and Quinoa
Cannelli Beans and Uncured Bacon and Jasmine Rice
The list goes on and on. Not only has this benefited myself, but my youngest son who has severe allergies and Asthmatic when it gets very bad. This has helped greatly in clearing up the symptoms for both of us. So since I found this blog again, I am committing to posting and picture taking my nutrition/diet changes. Hopefully I can keep up with it and 2 years do not pass again! lol
Til Next Time....
