| Swiss Chards, Kale and Collards - the Awesome Threesome! |
Overcast Tuesday - the trees on Long Island are starting to display brilliant colors of fall. I was so excited driving home last evening when I saw a row of full lush tree's with lots of Red, auburn, yellow and burnt orange leaves. Yes, fall is here. But warm weather is not completely gone yet... still happy.
Today was a heavy veggie day. I had a big bowl of Kale with breakfast - not my favorite cruciferous vegetable but still considered a 'super' veggie because of its intense nutritional concentration so I try not to let a day go by without having some. I also put it into the Ninja Blasts. I ran out of my Organic red and green romaine so had to run to the store after work to restock. I remember when a trip to the grocer after work was to buy cold cuts and chips, or some other 'fast food' but now (and for the past year+) every time I go it's to fill my cart with produce. My lifestyle has changed so much over the past 13 months its been quite a transformation and there isn't a month that goes by that there aren't more and more changes. It's become so important to me to live a healthy life. Adding 6-7 servings of vegetables and fruits to my daily tracker is just a natural evolution - all part of the journey. Meanwhile...
