One Year and One Day. Still a Vegan! Roasted Veggies!

Roasted Veggies with Quinoa

     New Year's Day, 2015.  I got hungry.  A potato, a beet, some broccoli, brussel sprouts, a carrot, an onion, some chopped kale, stop light peppers and shredded yellow squash seasoned with herbs of province roasted in the oven at 375 for 45 minutes. A side of Quinoa cooked with a little salt and pepper and lunch is served!

Roasted Veggies with Ghost Chili

     Same idea, different combination, much hotter.  Look around, see what's on hand and get started.

     Its a new year. What a great time to make a change!

One Year a Vegan!

Happy New Year!

     This is the One Year anniversary of my resolution changing over to a totally plant based diet. Its been a surprisingly simple thing to do and the general benefits have been marvelous.
     The 70 lbs that I've lost, the improvement in my blood chemistry, my lowered blood pressure and reduction of medication, feeling of well being, absence of knee and back pain all directly associated with this tiny change. I honestly haven't made any other changes.
     This years resolution for me is to learn something new every day and to remember what I already know:
     My family is everything and I need to stay as healthy as possible so we can enjoy every day together!          
Happy Healthy New Year Everyone!
