Tip of the Week: Want to eat healthy and oil-free at a restaurant? Order a salad and steamed vegetables, without dressing, and pack your own additional toppings and dressing in your purse or backpack. Sometimes restaurants will frown upon outside food, but if they can't accomadate your diet then you have no choice. I've done this lots of times and it's never been an issue. I typically pack tofu cubes and nuts/seeds and a little bottle of balsamic vinegar.

My Plant-Based Life

A Word About This Blog
My family and I eat a plant-based diet. That means we eat only fruits, vegetables, legumes, whole grains, and a small amount of nuts and seeds. We do this because we believe it is the diet that contributes the most to good health and helps us avoid disease. So that said, you will not find any recipes here that include meat, poultry, fish, dairy, eggs or overly processed foods. What we eat comes directly from the earth. What follows are my thoughts, ideas, research, recipes and photos as I create beautiful, nutrient-dense meals and strive to live in a healthy way. I hope you find inspiration and enjoy the tales of My Plant-Based Life.
