edamame hummus


I was quite excited making this last night. I was craving hummus but too lazy to go to the store so I pulled this off. You can make it just like you would make hummus. This particular one that I made I added coriander for spice, turmeric, curry, S/P, cayenne, garlic and I used flax oil instead of olive oil because I just needed to find a way to fit it into my food plan.

Not bad! Plus, the color is beautiful :)

PS. Edamame is a good source of complete protein, meaning it contains all essential amino acids (A must for vegetarians). It is also high in dietary fiber, omega fatty acids and several vitamins and minerals like vitamin C, A, K and iron.

Acorn Squash Salad

 


Wow! I very much enjoyed eating this for supper last night and lunch today.

Chicken, roasted acorn squash and toasted acorn seeds with olive oil and balsamic dressing. EASY!

Great winter food. The acorn squash is high in Vitamin A, E, B6, C and minerals like potassium and magnesium. Acorn roasted seeds are packed full of minerals such as zinc, magnesium, manganese and iron.

Delicious!

Juicing




Full of concentrated enzymes, vitamins, and minerals for the best absorption of nutrients and all at the same time giving your digestive organs a rest.

Juice yourself back to health, to increase energy, strengthen immunity, for a glowing complexion and reduce the risk of diseases.

Store it in a glass container for the more environmentally friendly choice.

Choose organic. The veggies I used in this juice were from Lunds farms in Alberta. Carrots, beets and Apples.

The best time to drink is on an empty stomach, start the day off with a bang of delight :)

Power House Breakfast



This was a great start to my exciting day :)

Big day? eat this.

pumpernickel toast
1 farmers market egg
spinach
guacamole
coconut oil
sea salt, pepper and (optional) nutritional yeast

Popeye always recommends spinach because it makes ya strong! rich in iron, fiber and vitamin A.
Eggs are also high in vitamin A and selenium which makes this a good for your skin meal.
Of course the avocado in the guacamole is a skin food as well. It is high in the B's and high in minerals such as magnesium, iron and manganese. I could go on with the nutritional value in this meal but I don't want to overwhelm you.

Eat, eat and eat! Keep the questions coming to  jennhruby@gmail.com

Peace.
