food for the temple...

forrest gump (aka my husband) was out again this morning.
he's been training for his first ever, marathon.
every sunday morning he heads out and runs for hours, and recently
its been for hours AND hours.
when he gets back he's not interested immediately in solid food
as his body is still dealing with resting muscles, decreasing heart rates and generally just being still.

so, i make him this when he gets in. 
easy to digest
dairy free
packed with carbs and protein
and delicious

bananas, medjool dates, coconut oil, blackstrap molasses,
chia seeds, blueberries and oat milk




after a while he'll be ravenous but still looking for something
WHOLEsome.

then he gets this
heck, we all get it!
Mushrooms, creamy scrambled egg and rye sourdough

we make our scrambled eggs with cream
in fact, we've been having quite a fling with fat
it would seem that the idea of fat being bad for you is being revisited and questioned.
read more about it here
food for thought.

more and more our pantry is being detoxed
and my recipes are being re-written to include more wholesome, less refined ingredients
and we are all feeling the benefits of it

i dread sounding all holier-than-thou but all i know is that as the cook of our house
i have the responsibilty for making sure my people
are eating foods that give them VITALity
so they can live happily and healthily.
worship your body like its the Taj Mahal
and it will gleam from the inside, out.
thats a promise.
