Did you know that how you feel day to day all comes down to the food you put into your body?! If you eat good, you’ll feel good. 🥦 If you eat crap, you’ll feel like crap. 🍟 By making just a few changes to your diet you will see just how big of a difference you can make on the way you feel not only physically but mentally as well. Here are a few ideas to get you started: 🍋Swap sodas for flavored water 🍎Eat veggies at every meal 🍊Start your day with a light breakfast, like a green smoothie 😉 🍏Avoid snacking in between meals which only adds extra calories throughout the day #healthyliving #smallvictories #setsmallgoals #thetimeisnow #takecareofyourbody #foodismedicine #investinyourself #greensmoothies #smoothease #cle

These quesadillas were so good that I made them twice in the last week😍 I bet you won’t even miss the cheese 😉😊 1/4 cup brown rice 3/4 yellow onion, chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 tbsp chili powder 1 tsp ground cumin 1 (15-oz) can black beans 1 (15-oz) can low-sodium diced tomatoes 1 cup frozen corn 1/4 cup fresh cilantro sea salt freshly ground black pepper 8 6-inch corn tortillas avocado salsa Bring rice and 1/2 cup of water to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes or until soft. Sauté onions, garlic, chili powder, and cumin in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until onions start to turn translucent, 3 to 4 minutes.  Stir in black beans and tomatoes; cook until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Add corn and cooked brown rice; cook until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro, if using.  Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Portion filling onto 4 of the tortillas and spread evenly. Top with remaining tortillas. Cook 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly browned. Serve with salsa and avocado.

This salad has kale, cherry tomatoes, chickpeas and you can either add quinoa or hemp seeds💖 #healthyliving #foodismedicine #caesarsalad #guiltfree #smoothease #cle

Green Bean Casserole 3 Yukon Gold potatoes, largely diced 1 cup low-sodium vegetable broth sea salt freshly ground black pepper 12 ounces green beans, trimmed and cut into 2in pieces 1⁄2 yellow onion, diced 1 (8-oz) package mushrooms 2 cloves garlic, minced 3 tablespoons oat flour 1 1⁄2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar 1 1⁄2 teaspoons Italian seasoning sea salt freshly ground black pepper 1⁄4 cup breadcrumbs Scrub and dice potatoes, then steam or boil potatoes until cooked through. Remove from heat and transfer to a bowl to let cool. Add vegetable broth to potatoes, season with salt and pepper to taste, and mash with a potato masher until creamy. Trim and cut green beans, then steam in a steamer insert set over boiling water, covered, until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. Dice onion and slice mushrooms. Mince garlic. Sauté onions, mushrooms, and garlic in a saucepan over medium heat, covered, stirring occasionally, until onions start to turn golden brown, 7 to 10 minutes. Add water 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time as needed, to keep vegetables from sticking to pan. Combine oat flour, broth, vinegar, and Italian seasoning in a bowl; season with salt and pepper to taste. Add mixture to vegetables and cook until gravy thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer ½ of gravy to a blender or a bowl (if using an immersion blender) and purée until smooth. Stir unblended gravy into puréed gravy. Preheat oven to 350°F. Place green beans in a 9 x 5-inch loaf dish and pour gravy on top. Scatter breadcrumbs over beans and bake for about 20 minutes. Serve hot with mashed potatoes on the side.   #healthyliving #easydinners #foodismedicine #casserole #greenbeans #vegetables #homecookedmeals #smoothease #cle

How often do you spend your time sitting throughout the day? Driving to and from work….. maybe you have a desk job that adds another 8 hours…..come home from work to make dinner….. then go to the couch to unwind and watch some tv before laying in bed for the rest of the night???😴 An object in motion stays in motion…an object that sits, stays sitting. If you are always sitting, you will look to sit again. You don’t have to get into an intense workout regimen to be healthy, just aim to be “less inactive”. Standing can lengthen your telomeres which are a protective covering over our DNA strands. These naturally shorten with age, but when they become too short (from being inactive) our cells can no longer reproduce and eventually die. By being “less inactive” you can lengthen your telomeres and increase longevity. Become less inactive by parking farther away at the grocery store, go for a walk at lunch/after work or stand up during commercial breaks😉 These small changes can make a difference and reduce your risk of heart disease! 🙌🏼 #belessinactive #longevity #healthyliving #sittingisthenewsmoking #getmoving #standmoresitless #smalladjustmentsleadtobigresults #getonboard #activelifestyle #dontbelazy #heartdisease #chronicillness #prevention #smoothease #cle

Peanut butter may be delicious, but did you know that peanuts grow a mold that produces aflatoxin, a KNOWN carcinogen that is DIRECTLY linked to liver cancer?? And unfortunately, children are the most susceptible to it because they eat it the most. 😕 Peanuts grow underground in moist, humid conditions which allows the growth of mold under their thin shell. This can even happen during storage. Because of this, organic peanuts/peanut butter can still produce aflatoxin and should be avoided at all costs. Peanuts also greatly increase inflammation in the body, which is the root of ALL disease. Help prevent liver cancer for you and your children by removing peanut butter from your diet😉 #prevention #liver #cancer #peanutbutter #peanuts #inflammation #organic #health #foodismedicine #youarewhatyoueat #healthyliving #smoothease #cle

An excellent way to ensure you are staying hydrated (and warm) through these winter months is to drink some tea throughout the day. However, did you know that tea can block the absorption of some important vitamins and minerals? Because of this, it is best to avoid drinking it with your meals, and instead drink it in between meals or at least 20-30min before you eat to maximize absorption. 💖💖💖 #healthyliving #foodismedicine #tea #herbs #vitamins #digestivehealth #smoothease #cle
