REAL READING

If after reading all my posts, you see the importance of sustainable living but not sure how to really get started, I have the answer for you.  It's how I got started.

 Head on to your local library or bookstore or amazon and check out these 2 books. 

Michael Pollan's Omnivore's Dilemma:  Michael is a professor at Berkeley and author of several amazing books discussing the importance of "eating real foods, mostly plants" and how to do it.  This book takes you on his journey of how he was able to achieve this and create one fantastic, completely sustainable meal.  🍲  🌿
Joel Salatin's The Sheer Ecstasy of being a Lunatic Farmer: Joel is a completely sustainable farmer and shares with you fascinating insights on the difference between industrial and sustainable farming and how he easily achieves it.  🐖 🐄 🐔

These 2 books peaked my interest and got me to look further into the sustainable world and how I could incorporate it into my humble life.....easily.....keeping it real.

This is so decadent it feels like a treat or dessert but is so nutritious it can be enjoyed as a quick breakfast any day of the week.  And, remember.....all of our products have no added sugar (sweetened with applesauce and honey ) and no added saturated fats (a small amount of sunflower oil which is rich in vitamins ....especially E , and antioxidants to stay moist and flavor...

I did it!! 20 Day Challenge is successfully completed!!! Here is what I learned from this experience: You can do ANYTHING for 20 days! Eating real, whole foods all the time keeps you satisfied with more energy and feeling better about yourself. It forced me to eat better and be creative in getting the best nutrition into my body it gave me new, healthy recipes that I didn't know existed I will do this again....maybe a few times a year I am proud of myself 👏 While I am excited I completed the challenge, I will need to be careful in introducing certain foods back into my diet; sugars, etc.... I know I am going to limit my fried and processed foods if at all.......no real benefits to them.....with that said.....Where are the jelly beans????  If you know me, you know I love my Easter candy.....in moderation people....in moderation 🙌                                     ...
