    HEALTH: The Many Benefits of Celery Juice

    April 15, 2020 /

    A few weeks back I ran into a friend at Marshall’s (my favorite place!), and we started talking about our health and the benefits of juicing. She, like myself, is always looking to stay afloat in regards to her health and asked me if I had tried celery juicing. I had picked up Dr. Anthony Williams Liver Rescue book a few months ago but hadn’t had the chance to read it read though I remembered he recommended celery juicing so my interest was peaked! My friend went on about how it changed her life, she was no longer getting the migraines she use to get a couple times a month…

    Sauteed Peppers, Onions & Mozzarella over Quinoa

    March 24, 2020 /

    Lately I have been looking for vegetarian options and came across a delicious pre-cooked grain from Melissa’s Produce… quinoa (pronounced KEEN-wah). You’ve probably had it at your favorite healthy restaurant or even tried it at home. Once I discovered that I rather enjoyed the flavor I went searching to learn more about it. I think you’ll find it’s history and nutrition benefits as interesting as I did! Quinoa was an important crop for the Inca Empire. They referred to it as the “mother of all grains” and believed it to be sacred. It has been eaten for thousands of years in South America and only recently became a trend food,…

    Baked Okra

    March 2, 2020 /

    It’s a great time of year to make some delicious Southern food and this incredibly easy baked okra dish is one you’ll want to try out! It makes a great snack or side dish. Seasoned with paprika, salt and a pinch of cayenne, it makes a great addition to any Southern dish. Okra has been one of those vegetables I’ve wanted to make but wanted a healthier version than the fried okra recipes you see everywhere. So when I came across this simple, three ingredient dish on cooktoria dot com, I figured now was the time to try it out. Melissa’s Produce sent over some staples such as their yummy…
