Veggie Love

Posted on May 13, 2022 by - Health Blog

Lovers and Haters

Some people love them, while some people hate them. What am I talking about? Vegetables. We have both types in our house. I love veggies, but my husband can’t stand them, especially green ones; it’s pretty ironic seeing the industry we’re in. Despite his dislike of veggies, my hubby eats them. Why? It’s simple, we know it’s good for our health. So to help get in his daily dose of veggies, I’ve had to get creative in how I prepare food. Check out our blog and social media

Look, we get it. Eating vegetables isn’t the sexiest thing in the world. It’s more or less a necessary evil to be healthy. It’s ideal to eat them at every meal; yes, that includes breakfast too. Below are some reasons why you should make sure to include veggies in your meals.

Variety is the spice of life! Stay on track with your health and fitness goals, but switching things up a bit from time to time, especially when it comes to what you’re eating. If you keep eating the same things over and over again, you’re likely to get bored and fall off the wagon; however, switching things up keeps the journey fresh!

Check out this yummy Vegan Breakfast recipe for Apple Buckwheat Pancakes with Coconut Caramel Apples. Thanks to Nicholas Elliot for providing this awesomeness! It tastes so yummy and it was super easy to make.

Bury the Old

Burial Exercise

Today we’re going to do something. We are going to bury the old and create something new. Isn’t it about time that you stop tricking your mind into believing you’re someone that you’re not? We’ve all created stories about ourselves at some point or another. From this point moving forward, you will no longer live the lies that you and others have convinced you of. I proclaim that part of your life over. It’s time to BURY the old identity that’s held you back for years. Something important to remember: the more you give in this exercise, the more you get so go all in!

A Dance Party in Your Stomach

Ever find yourself frustrated in feeling full and killing cravings? Wonder how filling is the food you’re eating? Let’s back track real quick … Why do we eat? We eat to live, right? Right! Now I think it’s fair to say (on behalf of the human experience) we also eat to have a dance party in our stomach. Can I get a hell freakin’ yeah on that? So how do we solve this eat for a dance party while feeling satisfied to the max problem? What is the secret to filling ourselves like a bucket of water all while hosting a dance party in our stomachs (haha)?

Food in AM

Not sure about you, but I’m the type of person who NEEDS something to eat first thing in the morning. Ever heard of hangry (a.k.a when someone gets angry because they’re super hungry)?
