go to the frozen section and if it’s like our’s, there’s relatively cheap frozen fruits and veggies… year round. To thaw, leave in bowl. To eat right away, microwave at a lower power 4-6 minutes. Microwave fresh broccoli at a lower power for 5 minutes… it is wonderful! 1 month ago

Okra’s new to me, and while I enjoy the texture of the vegetable (fruit?) itself, I’m not much of a fan of the gooey juice/fluids it expels. Perhaps, like mushrooms, it is an acquired taste…

Earlier this week, the chef fried it, and while it was quite tasty, I thought it somewhat defeated the purpose of eating vegetables in the first place. 3 months ago

Xmas eve there was a big discussion about juicing. Mentioned it to fella today and he seemed excited! He doesn’t really know how to prepare vegetables, and as he put it “if anyone needs vegetable nutrients, it’s me.” So maybe we’ll start on a routine. That would make me feel good. 4 months ago

I am fairly good with this already, but it will probably be a lifelong goal. I was reading a blog this morning about whole food eating, and there was a post by the blogger’s husband giving his perspective on making that change. He recommended watching Food, Inc. for a little push to get started. I have heard about this movie for a while now. I think it’s on netflix, so will check it out. Maybe if hubby watches with me, he’ll get inspired, too. 5 months ago

I’ve been clean eating for about 3 months now, I’ve lost appx 12 lbs and look more healthy. And I’m also enjoying all the fresh fruits and vegetables of the summer. Yummm… 10 months ago
