Peace Out, Processed Food

Here's something you already knew: Pinterest is amazing.  Now that that's out of the way...

I've stumbled across a particular blog a few times.  It's called 100 Days of Real Food and chronicles a family's journey to cut out the bad, processed food guys for 100 days. I've glanced at this blog a few times and said "oh, that's neat," but stumbled along my merry way to the next interesting read of the day.  In other words, I never really soaked all I should have out of it...until now!

This morning I was playing on Pinterest and say a pin called "100 days of no processed foods." Because of my new obsession with natural, whole foods, I took a look and voila!  It's the same blog that I'd stumbled upon a few times before.  This time though I found a resource that is quite possibly one of the most helpful collections of information I've found to date - Recipes & Resources.  It's a list of unprocessed meals broken down into categories: breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and appetizers, dessert, etc.  There are recipes included too.

For me, I tend to get in the habit of eating the same foods over and over again.  This will certainly help me to stay adventurous and excited about food while being health-minded at the same time. I think I'll try this Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie soon.

Enjoy!

  1. NICE! I'm always freaked out by people who give away samples at Whole Foods and push "fat free" products. I'm always preaching, "Fat isn't the enemy! It's chemicals, preservatives, artificial ingredients, heavy processing, homogenization, etc.!" People just don't get it. So refreshing to hear from someone who does!

  2. I'm with you 100%. It's not fat that I'm scared of - it's the ingredients I can't pronounce!
