Last night I enjoyed a fresh, light, yet satisfying dinner of Zoodles topped with my Strawberry Salsa recipe. I basically created this easy salsa recipe as I was chopping up what veggies I had on hand that would compliment the beautiful, organic strawberries. I used my trusty Veggetti to spiralize the yellow zucchini squash into Zoodles. I have been so happy with this little kitchen gadget! You can see what the Veggetti looks like in this photo.... I took the juice of 1 lime and marinated the Zoodles in it for 2 hours. This softens them and gives you the "mouth feel" of traditional noodles. Just drain off the excess juice before using the Zoodles in a recipe to avoid having a plate filled with juice. Here are the organic ingredients you'll need for the Strawberry Salsa...

Look at this,"The popularity of plant-based eating has also influenced at least six local restaurants to add vegan dishes to their menus." Now that is another step in the right direction. This is Texas guys!!!! You know how much they idolize their animal protein.   Reversing cancer simply by making the PROPER lifestyle and diet changes is possible. Yes it can be that simple.  It is the medical industry $$$$$ that wants you to believe it is complicated and scary and expensive. Do the research. Let me say that again, do the research; there is no denying ...

A few nights ago I put together a recipe for the children.  It made a great, healthy, protein packed treat for them before bed. Everyone loved it, hubby and I included. I have been thinking about it ever since because I used up the last of the strawberries and look forward to getting more today so we can make another blender full!! It's THAT good! Hemp seeds were the primary ingredient supplying the protein and chia supplied the perfect balance of Omega-3's and Omega-6's. Here is some history about these amazing seeds, taken directly from this site .
