So since last post:
- I went through our recipe book to see if there were any recipes that needed to be ditched, but I was pleased to realize that 90% of our recipes count as real food and a few could use minor substitutions to make them totally really food.
- I have been trying some new recipes with quinoa, fish, and granola.
- I made the chocolate powerballs. Hubby really liked them. I'm not a huge dark chocolate fan so I'd eat them, but I did not love the super dark chocolate flavor. However my son loved them and I'd eat them so we were all getting the benefits of 100% cacao. It's amazing what dates do as a sweetener.
- I've been reading like crazy and educating myself more on what to avoid and what to use as a substitute. I have so much to learn. I have found some fantastic blogs with great recipes and information on eating real food. Oh I wish I could blog like those ladies do. Maybe someday when I have more time and energy.
- We've been enjoying our grass-fed beef from our co-op order. What a difference in taste.
Things to try in the near future:
- Try to find more organic products at Costco. The Greenbacks Gal inspired me to scout out my Costco for yummy and healthy food.
- I got a variety pack of Naked juice from Costco. Super yummy, but expensive. I need to look into juicing at home. Not sure if I'm ready for that yet. Need to read up on it more.
- Try more new recipes and make good use of our basket ingredients. Maybe try to make some kale chips.
- Try to find a bulk source of chicken like I did with the beef.
- Read, read, read about real food lifestyles and share as much info as I can via this blog and Facebook.
- Connect with other real food foodies.
