I don’t have links to provide as these are all plant-based recipes from the Fork Over Knives app so I’m able to view them however I’m not able to share a link to them however if you are in my Facebook group I will be posting some of the recipes in there.  I’m excited as I begin my 30 Challenge in April so this will be a good healthy week for me.  I’m also curious to see how this weeks food menu goes as my little one has decided she wants to be a vegetarian for one week like my older daughter and since they are both doing it I figured it was just easier for me to cook one meal for all of us instead of 2 meals each night which means my husband and I are doing the same thing.  This is a great time and opportunity to try some new things that are plant-based and clean eating, this will also be good for our family to keep us healthy and use low cost pantry items while using fresh vegetables and fruit. I hope everyone can stay safe and healthy for the next several weeks ahead.

Looking to stay active or a new challenge check out my Facebook group “My Journey Worth Sharing” as we have a new upcoming 30 day challenge beginning April 1st with lots of new daily workouts and yummy healthy food recipes.  Send me an invite!!!

It’s been an interesting few weeks for me as I switched over to a Keto diet, this has been a whole new experience as I have not had diary in over a year and a half.  I was very nervous about how my body would react to it but I’m happy to say it’s been good.  The first week I definitely felt really full and bloated however I think that was from the higher fat as I have not been use to eating.  I’m really excited about this weeks recipes as I have made a few of her recipes and they are very tasty.  I have used a combination of Keto and Vegetarian since my older daughter has been no longer eating meat, I don’t want to cook several different meals each night so I’m trying to find the best of both worlds. Hope very one has a very happy and healthy week!
