I have been on this journey for a little while. Changing our lives from normal, fast food, eat out of a box American's to a healthier way of living/eating. Eating organic, cage-free, no hormones injected, raw, all natural way of eating. You can see above these are a few of the products it takes to make such dishes. I am in the midst of clearing out our cabinets of no canned foods, no box cakes, no can sauces, no casseroles etc. Trust me, once you start to make the change it's HARD but once a few weeks into it.....even PIZZA doesn't taste the same. I mean good pizza from Frank's didn't even taste the same. You change your taste buds and make your mind up.
Above in the first and second picture: Coconut Cupcakes with Key Lime Frosting. ((only bad, heavy cream in the frosting))
Third picture: Yummy yummy Chocolate Chip Cookies made with Almond Meal that's why they are kinda dark looking. ((didn't have almond flour but Im on the look out for some))
So heads up family, the holidays are coming, new recipes I am trying out on you guys. I WON'T be gaining weight back b/c of the Holidays. Im going to eat right beside you, just more aware of what my body doesn't need or want. Cheers.
Anyone who knows me knows that I do not put strange or unfamiliar substances into my mouth, so I would not have sampled these for anyone other than my daughter. But here's the thing: Having tried them, I was pleasantly surprised. They were actually quite good!
ReplyDeleteDad your so wonderful to say that about my cooking. I can't wait for your taste buds to try more of my new ideas. I know I can't wait for laura and connie to read your comment b/c when Dad says anything, it's TRUE so they will actually try it, since Dad did =) thanks popie
