Below you will find a post that I had prepared in December, and for some reason I did not post it.
There is some great looking food and nice ideas for dinner. Enjoy!
I have been exceptionally busy over the Christmas break and into the new year. When my responsibilities are busy, I have no choice but to let the blog fall into the category that it really is...a hobby. Much thanks to all of you who have been checking in and reading.
Going forward into the new year I want to explore more and more on whole foods eating, and also vegetable gardening. Planning and organizing shopping and cooking to eat foods as natural as possible also.

Here is some parts of an awesome dinner we made tonight.
Menu:
Kale salad served with julienned carrots, daikon radish, zucchini, and some red collards.
Purple Organic grown potatoes,
A bit of Chorizo sausage from a local butcher who only uses hormone free, local raised animals.
Purple Organic Potatoes
I should add that our family budget does not allow for organic grown produce most times. We found a local grower in Caledon, Ontario, who is supplying produce until December 23rd. We have obtained purple potatoes, purple carrots, parsnips, red collards, brussel sprouts, 2 kinds of squash, etc. So cool, and so healthy. Check out what you can still buy local. You just might be surprised. We can buy from this supplier until December 23rd. You might find a local supplier that can provide awesome produce for you too!
Try to cook with reduced amounts of oil and substitute water or juice or vinegar appropriate to the dish when cooking/pan searing. Keep your meat and dairy to 3-4 oz per day as a total combined, and increase your fibre through whole grains and whole foods, and you'll be on your way to good healthy nutrition.
Plus, this stuff just tastes great, and increases your energy.
Hopefully the pictures inspire you to get busy in your kitchen.
Thanks for reading,
Cassie
