Example on a super meal & the how / Mushroom Omelette & mixed salad


"Simple food in gorgeous perfection" - I.A
I love that!                                                    


How that?
The varieties of omelets are many and since eggs are one of the most nutritious foods on earth providing everything our body need except vitamin C,  no doubt it is a great food choice.  Add that eggs are cheap, available, variable and useful in so many different ways, well there you go, one of the best food choices ;)

And;
to the  mushrooms which is one of the foods, as olives, people either love or hate. Personally I'm a fan for many reasons; healthy, great nutritional value and as I have a big interest in food, which are specially beneficial to support our immune system, and also have great anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits, the mushrooms fill well this preferences.  

and more;
An important to the palate matter is they add a deeper taste to a dish, are meaty and a great substitute to meat, also very variable and what more the are perfect for a healthy diet and fat-loss . 

mixed salad miracle;
seasonable, convenient whole food choice, salads originate from Mediterranean there they grew wild as weed and later spread their grease to the world. Mixed salad greens, rich in variety is similar in nutrients as calcium, iron, has a large amount of vitamin A, C and traces of minerals and is a low energy density food. As most lettuce mixed salad contain about 94 percent water and is excellent for weight loss as that increase satiety. You can mix other greens and herbs as celery, radicchio, parsley or cilantro, add tomato drizzle the deliciousness with olive oil and you have a nutritious miracle in your plate and the same miracle working in your body healing and creating health. It's easy isn't it!


The example I provide in this article is to give you the idea on how you with ease can make a super meal at home by taking a few steps. That is easily done when you choose a good protein source as eggs in this case or quinoa, green beans, yogurt, chicken, fish, add greens and vegetables, healthy fat as olive oil or a good quality butter or ghee if you are lactose intolerant and with basic nutrient knowledge have a menu that fit a good, healthy lifestyle. What you have to do is to buy the good food so you have it available. In my post  Flat tummy Food for Fridge you can find many useful ideas on good food to have available for variety meals.


Diet Tip;
Add fresh mushroom to your daily diet for a more filling meal and to cut calories, they are perfect in salads, slice and mix together, delicious!

Health Tip;
For woman at risk for hormone-depended breast cancer mushrooms and especially crimini mushrooms may be an important addition to their daily diet, according the worlds healthiest foods. Great :)


My following post will of course be the " Mushroom Omelette & mixed salad" recipe!!!

Perfect Balanced Meal & The Smartest Food


"treasure your body with good food" - I.A

I love food and I know you can eat well, good food and much more fun food without bland meals or suffering by hunger.  Either you are on the journey to weight loss for better health or to come inside those jeans you desperately want to fit, or you decided to add healthier foods to your diet as it is a must for a healthier fit life and a life with less sickness and high doctor bills, you are suppose to eat good and love it. So be it ;D

I love to cook all kind of food but I believe that most of our daily food should be the kind of food that is good for us and is easy to prepare, done by one ingredient foods, fits the budget, easy to cook, so that nutritional food can be on the table everyday. Important is also to make in advance meals and have in the fridge for a couple days and refrigerate the rest. By doing that you will always have the right food on the table, tasty, homemade, budget friendly, nutritional food and be able to keep a healthy you with less daily effort if you make the effort in advance. Isn't it perfect how it works, it's like magic and everything goes your way!!! :)

And now I will share with you a couple examples on easy to make nutritious meals with eggs. And I choose eggs as it is the smartest food on earth, indeed they are, one egg contains all the nutrients your body need the only you would need to add is vitamin C and that's easy done by squeezing fresh lemon juice and flavor your water, magic again!

How about packaged labelled and ready to eat

" eat well and you will live well"

I read many ideas and articles about does and doesn'ts and that is the case for todays article, about packaged and labelled foods does and dosen'ts. What i want to say is that not all that look alike are alike! 

I got the idea after reading an article written by a dietitian, which by the way had good information too, and she wrote; avoid everything with labels considering fruits, vegetables and meat. Well, please don't mess with peoples minds. At least when you do such a statement clarify better what you mean.

This is one of the reasons I  started my blog. The confusion the experts contribute to or the way they want to represent a "truth" depending on the interests. As I know there is many sides of a truth. I would love to know an information is as truthful as possible.

That will keep you away from mistakes not to grab what ever is available, when the hunger plays games with you. This kind of food will keep your belly flat and is all  for a healthy lifestyle approach on a everyday basis.
