Creating a healthy and purpose-driven life.
When I was younger, my mom would always be baking or cooking something. Most of my fondest childhood memories are of my mom’s kitchen creations or being able to help out with something she was fixing. Frequently my mom would fix this chocolate zucchini bread/cake that was out of this world. You couldn’t tell there was any sort of greens in it, and it still had the taste of chocolate-y goodness.
I eat a lot of veggies, really I do! But the one thing I can never get myself to do is to eat veggies raw. Fruit? No problem! Veggies? No chance! I don’t know if it’s the taste of uncooked vegetables or the texture, but I just prefer them stir fried in olive oil with seasoning. However I do know that there are significant nutritional benefits to munching on some carrot or celery sticks. The only way one can get me to do that though is with dips. Unfortunately due to a dairy intolerance, ranch dip is out of the question. Guacamole is great for every once in a while, but some variety is appreciated!
