This is the time of year many people think about goals for the New Year. When it comes to food I try to review the list of foods that I can eat. Focusing on the positive.
Here are a few of the foods that I include in my list of things to eat.
Olive oil
Almonds, walnuts
Dark leafy veggies- kale, spinach
Fruit
Whole grains-brown rice, oats, quinoa, beans, and lentils
Green tea
Dark Chocolate
Fish
Grass fed meat
Another food that I love are winter squashes. Acorn, hubbard and especially, butternut. The above picture is a golden hubbard from my local farmers market. I roasted these for 15min at 425 degrees in the oven. Squash are difficult to cut into, but worth the effort in taste and nutrition. I would love to hear from you on what is on your list of foods to eat. Leave a comment. Live well, eat well, enjoy the last day of 2011.
I LOVE butternut! Pat C. gave me the seeds from her famous butternut squash. Let me know if you want a few!
ReplyDeleteHere's a good link to help motivate towards whole/natural food choices...the video is informative, but you have to wait while they promo their business before you can hear their message!
