I have to read the label every time

I’ve been enjoying some rice noodles with vegetables and a splash of soy sauce. However, I just looked at the soy sauce label and it has WHEAT!!! Darn it, it’s such a good tasting brand too, so full of flavor that I only need a little dash. I’m not blaming the makers, I guess I [...]

Another way to control salt intake

I can’t claim that I came up with this idea, I heard it on a cooking show.
Let’s say you’re making a soup that calls for a tablespoon of salt and you feel that the soup would be a flop unless you added some salt. Instead of dumping the entire tablespoon into the pot, measure your [...]

Product Review: Loma Linda Redi-Burger

A few weeks ago, I was looking for a food that was healthy, yet convenient to have on hand. I wasn’t really concerned about eating meat vs. vegetarianism, I just wanted something shelf stable that was also versatile. I found Loma Linda Redi-Burger at Amazon, a case of 12 cans costs 38.95 and shipping is [...]

15 Foods That Help Fight Fat

I found this story about eating healthy foods at the site of one of my local news stations, KPHO. On the first slide, it said something about beans and how they are a good source of iron, fiber and protein. It also discusses the health benefits of foods such as fish, garlic, cinnamon and pectin. [...]

It’s hard to think of something healthy to write when….

You’re going to have burritos for dinner, lol. Well, they’re not going to be big burritos, and its a late dinner because my son’s coming home later than usual. Still and all, I’m trying to think of a way to make them healthier than they usually are. I guess I could empty them out, discard [...]

Podcast: Super quick tomato sauce

First of all, I have to apologize if this recipe isn’t very good. For some reason, my speakers aren’t playing sound very well today, probably a setting I clicked or didn’t click, or should’ve clicked.
Anyway, the comments on the video seem favorable, at least no one is complaining, lol. If you want to eat healthy [...]

I like what this video says about food prep

I just watched a video on Youtube that has some great suggestions about making meals. They suggest that after you’ve planned your meals, you then prepare all the meals at once so you’re ready for the week ahead. That way, you have quick healthy meals on hand, making it less likely that you’ll grab foods [...]

Have you ever heard of Florida Crystals?

I think it’s preferable to avoid sugar altogether. However, Florida Crystals says they are an organic product, and say their product is derived from evaporated sugarcane juice. I wonder if some of the harmful effects of conventional sugar is caused by its processing, and if those effects can be avoided by using a product like [...]

wheat-free and sugar-free spice cupcakes

I received this recipe from the Dr. Mercola newsletter. The page lists all the ingredients, and there’s also a helpful video posted at youtube as well. I was surprised that they used xylitol, because I thought Dr. Mercola frowned on all sorts of sweeteners, but I guess I was wrong. Luci Lock is the young [...]
