Braiden says

"Chop those veggies up"!
We are building better habits - It wont happen automatically, so don't feel discouraged when we "slip" back into the old habits, just keep on getting back on track - fill the fridge and cuboards (and food storage [Nana did]) with the good stuff (throw out the bad) and remember to "Chop those veggies"!
Love you all ~ Tiff

Hello everyone! Just thought I'd share something Ry and I have been discussing. We read the word of wisdom this morning, and we were really fascinated at how much more stuck out to us, now that we are thinking differently towards food. In particular how it referred to meat! D & C :89

What a good idea Jess! I'll have to try that! Love, Mom
Hey family! I started soaking my own beans! I soaked 2 bags at the same time, then I cooked them and separated them into two separate gallon sized ziplock bags. I put one in the freezer, and one in the fridge, that way they don't sour and go bad and I've always got plenty on hand. It's cheaper, and has much less sodium than canned beans! I also put in cider vinegar as I'm cooking the beans to cut the gas! Good tip huh!

Curried Tofu

Hello Family!
Here's another recipe that is turning out to be a favorite amongst us!!!!
2 T. water
1 Pack firm tofu cubed
1 med. onion diced
2-3 cloves garlic minced
1/2 any color pepper (i like yellow) chopped
1/2 c. fresh mushrooms chopped
4 T. Olive oil
1 T. Brown mustard
2-3 T. Low sodium soy sauce
2 t. Curry powder
1T. mint or parsley (fresh is always best)
1t. Tarragon
1/2 t. Chili powder
1/2 t. Sea salt

Heat water, tofu and veggies in skillet. Add olive oil. Cook 8-10 minutes over med. heat. Mix mustard and miso together in a bowl and pour over mixture. Stir in spices and continue cooking until most of the liquid in skillet evaporates. Serve hot. I like to scoot everything over to the side of the skillet and toss in a couple handfulls of fresh spinach and put the lid on to let it lightly steam, then serve the curried tofu over the spinach! Yummmmy! :)
