THANKSGIVING TREASURES TWEAKED
Thanksgiving is right around the corner and when I think of what I want to see on my plate, I think of dressing and green bean casserole more than I think of turkey. Since I am a vegan with seafood exceptions, the turkey is the farthest thing from my mind. Because I am trying to…
SOME FAVORITE PRODUCTS
Here is an assortment of products that I have found over the past couple of years that I actually like and can recommend. You might need a little attitude adjustment when the cheese isn’t exactly like your favorite cheese you’ve been eating all your life…but… your taste buds will adjust and your health will thank…
OUT THE DOOR CHIA POWER DOUGHNUTS P.41
I actually have made these twice now. Once as a trial and the second time because I liked them and wanted to try one little tweak. Let me just say, Nailed IT!!! The picture in the book shows them with a ribbon of coconut-lemon whipped cream but I promise you, they stand alone and just…
PORTOBELLO “STEAK” FAJITAS P. 185
I can’t think of a single adult that doesn’t like Portobello mushrooms. I’m sure they are out there, but few and far between.

FOODS THAT MAY HELP REDUCE OR STABILIZE BLOOD PRESSURE…. AND ONLY 3 THINGS TO AVOID
Do you worry when they put the cuff on your arm and start squeezing? (I always worry that they lost count of the pumps and should have stopped earlier!!) Does high blood pressure run in your family? Do these 2 words pop up in your vocabulary more each year? Do you understand that the foods…
SUPER GREENS SOUP
I love soups and I have a handful that rotate and are staples in my frig at all times. They can be used as a meal or a snack. They can be eaten hot or cold depending on the season and of course, your palette. I happen to love them for breakfast. WHAT???? Yep, they…
WINTER CITRUS SALAD
PAGE 255 This says winter salad and the reason it says winter is all citrus is not available in the summer. I learned this the hard way. What do you mean I can’t find a grapefruit or a blood orange? However, not to worry. This recipe works beautifully with just navel oranges. I had an…
