My Mediterranean Cold Beatroot Salad for optimal health

                       "Good Food is the Foundation to Good Health"

Living my early years in Greece I grow up with the best of foods, cooked with love and affection for what is the best to serve to the family. A well cooked meal was always on the table and I was never of the children who disliked any food. I knew and felt that it was made with the greatest ingredients and the most important one was the ingredient of love and the wish to provide the best to your loved ones. I think that was also the reason I always ate what ever my family put on the table. I had the best served to me. 

One of the dishes on our family table was this cold beet and garlic salad. It's not only delicious and simple to make, beats are one of the healthiest foods you can eat. They help the body in the detoxication process due to an unique source of phytonutrients called betalains. Betanin and vulgaxanthin are two of the best-studied betalains from beets, both have been shown to provide antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and detoxification support.  

Besides all that beets promote optional health and add the most beautiful and strong shot of color to the table.

Eating out healthy review / Gado-gado

Here I'm on my mission to have fun and eat out healthy. This time I decided to eat at the popular for Malay Chicken Rice restaurant. When eating out I mostly choose food I can find worldwide and I like to try food which I can cook at home. It's a fun way to get some new food ideas and entertain friends. You have something new to talk about and have the chance to shine ;) 

Checking for healthy good eats I saw on the menu the Gado-gado dish looking good and alluring with all fresh veggies and peanut sauce. I decided to give it a try. And I was right the salad tastes good is filling and the peanut sauce take the dish a step further. I just love peanut sauce and have to look up not to eat to much :D
