Quinoa porridge! For those cool winter days, pack

Quinoa porridge! For those cool winter days, pack your morning with the complete protein power of quinoa! Did you know….High in fiber: Quinoa contains more fiber than other grains, which can help with digestion and gut health.
Complete protein: Quinoa contains all nine essential amino acids, making it a complete protein.
Gluten-free: Quinoa is a good option for people who are gluten intolerant.
Low glycemic index: Quinoa has a low glycemic index, which means it releases energy more slowly and can help with blood sugar control.
Antioxidants: Quinoa contains antioxidants and plant compounds.
Vitamins and minerals: Quinoa is a great source of vitamins and minerals, including manganese, magnesium, phosphorous, folate, copper, iron, zinc, thiamin, riboflavin, and vitamin B6.
Heart health: A Harvard study suggests that eating quinoa every day may reduce the risk of early death from heart disease.
Recipe: 1c quinoa (be sure to rinse first), 3/4 c nut milk, 1/4c H2O, 2 TBsp maple syrup and 1tsp sea salt. Bring to a boil with the lid on, then simmer until all liquid is absorbed. Let sit for 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork. I like to add nut butter, berries, cinnamon and nutmeg to add to the health benefits of this nutritious breakfast!

Typically, I let my boys have a say in the weeks plan for meals. This was my 13yo’s idea, a “salad bowl” he calls it. While not a new concept, I love that he had this idea and suggested it for a family dinner! Teach them young, while still impressionable. #raisinghealthykids #foodaware #functionalfood

Do you know where your fruits and vegetables come from? Mostly from far away if you buy from the supermarket. Support your local farms by joining a CSA. #ironoxfarm

Back to school… teach your kids to consume a rainbow of fruits and vegetables everyday. I know grown adults who would not even touch this lunch with a ten foot pole b/c they hate veggies. It starts young folks! You don’t introduce or feed your kids an array of fruits and veggies… they will grow to be adults who don’t like them. #livehealthy #kidsfood

Stress Management… What’s in your tool box? Wh

Stress Management… What’s in your tool box? When we have chronic stress and we ignore it, ultimately it leads to us breaking down. That can manifest as emotional outbursts, illness, fatigue, anxiety, depression… the list goes on. What can you pull out of your tool box each day, even for 5 minutes, to dedicate to your mental health? I know for me, it’s being outside in nature, getting a good dose of vitamin D. Stress creates a release of cortisol in the body and inhibits the absorption of vitamin D. Not only does cortisol increase weight gain but the deficiency of D caused by the cortisol, increases your chances for illness, depression, fatigue, inflammation, etc. It’s no wonder we get sick, when we are stressed. AND…. Most of us are vitamin D, deficient. With all of that said… one of the tools in my tool box for stress, is to get outside and soak up my D 🌞

I’ve been told I make good salads… one of my key secrets, is homemade dressing. I don’t think I’ve purchased salad dressing in over 25 years 😳😁 Have you EVER looked at the ingredients of your salad dressing????
This dressing is a staple and I make it fresh with each salad, which is every night in my house. The trick is, to make the dressing in the bowl and add your ingredients, with the exception of your lettuce. Don’t toss the salad, until you’re ready to eat it. Allow the hearty ingredients to sit in the bowl, mixed into the dressing, then put the lettuce and herbs on top. Once you are ready to eat, toss it all together. This method allows for the ingredients of the dressing to marinate with the hearty veggies at the bottom of the bowl.
Recipe for this simple dressing…
Splash of olive oil
1/2 lemon
Sprinkle of salt & pepper
1 clove of crushed garlic

Starting the day with a green smoothie after a day

Starting the day with a green smoothie after a day of sugary treats, does a body good:-)
I like this recipe as it's both flavorful, full of greens and not too sweet. I am a HUGE fan of Moonjuice products (moonjuice.com). I've searched high and low for a vegan protein without all the added ingredients, that of which we don't know what they are or where they came from. This protein is simple, with only 7 ingredients and is rice based.
Recipe:
1 c nut milk, water or coconut water
1 scoop Blue Beauty Moonjuice protein
1 c frozen pineapple
1 handful of spinach
2 stalks of celery
1 handful of cilantro (or parsley)
1 tsp MCT oil
Splash of lime juice
Sprinkle of ground flax seeds

Blend and enjoy! One note to remember, try to stick with one fruit to your smoothies and allow the majority of the ingredients to be greens.
