My lessons from Raw food!

Hello!

So I decided to stop eating a full raw diet and instead look into the benefits of a well balanced diet. I still do not include dairy, meats or eggs, but sometimes eat fish and chicken ( although that is only in extreme cases). I still eat loads of fruits and veggies, and see the benefits of raw food, but also believe that our bodies need a bit of cooked food as well. We nee some good complex carbohydrates, such as yummy brown rice and potatoes.

The trick is: eat when your hungry.... there is not real way to eat other than when you legitimately feel full and allow your stomach time to digest. Us Celiacs have a hard time digesting to begin with, and it helps to do a cleans from time to time to aid in this digestion process. I would suggest a cleans with a fruit and veggie base!!

As life on the west coast gets busier, I will do my best to keep this update, and feel free to offer feedback!

Have a happy GF day!

Recipe of the day:

Roasted Veggies

- yams
- potatoes
- zucchini
- carrots
- beets
- and any other root vegetables such as turnip, parsnip, eggplant, etc.

Chop all veggies into chunks and place on a cookie sheet. Drizzle with olive oil ( or sesame oil for a different taste). Sprinkle with chopped garlic and salt and pepper. You can also add some cayenne pepper to make them spicy!!

Roast for 35-40 minutes and check them half way to mix them around the pan to make sure all veggies get cooked evenly! Enjoy as a salad or side dish! Yum:)


Cheers!
