I said I’d post a recipe this week. It’s winter good time for soup. This was an easy super tasty soup. I even used my Doterra Oils in place of the dried spices which gave even extra flavor. I missed my soups. I hope you like it. Packed with vegetables. Lentil Minestrone Ingredients • 1 small onion • ¾ cup dried brown lentils • 1 carrot • 1 stalk celery • 3 cloves garlic • 4 cups vegetable stock •…
Wouldn’t be me if I wasn’t extreme. Vegan to Keto, that’s extreme. Why would I even think about this? A movie called the Magic Pill on Netflix. Ironically, it was watching Forks over Knives on Netflix that I became Vegan. My diet isn’t working anymore and hasn’t been working. I’ve been maintaining a ten pound unexplained weight gain following a plant-based diet and tracking on weight watchers. This past week I put on an additional 4 pounds. I don’t eat…
I love soup even in the summer. This one was really good and really easy. Had to share. Unfortunately I realized I can’t eat meats regularly and have a normal digestive tract. I’m back to more plant based. https://www.facebook.com/forksoverknives/videos/10155895331624353/ INGREDIENTS 8 small Yukon Gold, white, or russet potatoes (about 2 pounds), cut into ½-inch chunks ½ small onion, peeled and chopped 3 ears fresh corn, kernels removed (about 1¾ cups), cobs reserved 2 medium carrots, peeled and diced 2 stalks…
Well some of the fatigue in my arms has lifted, thankfully. I slept for 11 hours last night. Considering most days I sleep about 8-9 hours, I’m not usually lacking in the sleep department. I guess I still needed it. I probably could have slept longer but the phone rang. I had the worst spasm in my leg yesterday. It took a few minutes for the muscles to relax so I could get my leg to lower back down. It…
It’s official, today I renewed my blog’s domain name for another two years. This also renewed my iPage contract that my blog is hosted through. I made my commitment to my blog, to my readers and to myself. That means I’m going to be around every day for another two years. I have to admit, I’ve been a little lazy with this blog. I haven’t put much effort in lately. It wasn’t done on purpose, it was just a tough…
I made this soup twice this week already. It’s really good and so healthy. Win/Win. I even have a video on this one. Vegan, plant based and weight watchers friendly. Enjoy. https://www.facebook.com/forksoverknives/videos/10155743449849353/ Ingredients: 6 corn tortillas 6 large tomatoes, halved 2 red bell peppers, halved 8 ounces mushrooms, roughly chopped (about 2 cups) ½ yellow onion, roughly chopped 3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped 2 teaspoons ground cumin 2 dried chipotle chiles 5 to 7 sprigs fresh cilantro 2 teaspoons smoked…
I have an added a recipe in a really long time. This is a fairly simple one but it’s pretty good. Quick Chickpea Bolognese INGREDIENTS 1½ cups diced red onion 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced 1 (15.5-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed, drained, and chopped (1½ cups) 1 medium carrot, cut into ¼-inch dice 1 cup mushrooms (any kind you like), cut into ¼-inch dice 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes (1½ cups) 1 (15-ounce) can tomato sauce (1½ cups) ½ tablespoon dried…
I tried out a new recipe so I thought I’d share it. I ended up putting this over a salad yesterday in place of dressing, it was actually very tasty. It’s very hard to find a no oil, vegan/plant-based dressing. They are mostly made with a vinegarbase which is very very acidic. This was a very nice alternative that was unexpected. This would also be really tasty over a baked potato or just plain. Some recipe notes. If you’re using…
I need to thank Jen from Tripping through Treacle’s http://trippingthroughtreacle.com/ Who reminded me of this. If you haven’t followed my blog, for almost a year I became vegan. I did it for health reasons. I wanted to see if it made any difference in my multiple sclerosis. The real reason I ended up stopping is because for some reason I started putting on weight. I ended up joining weight watchers and at the time being vegan was very difficult to…
