Florida seems to be a little behind in the cold weather this winter but we finally jumped into the 40’s the other night from our normal 80’s! Which means our heat was on, socks on our feet, fireplaces burning and the soup is simmering on the stove! Even my chickens were fluffing their feathers when I let them out of the coop at 7 am! It was like a refrigerator in their cozy dwelling because the hens eggs were cold as ice; normally the eggs are warm from their bushy butts roosting over them. Needless to say, all I could think about when my toes hit the glacier flooring below my bedside was what warm, tasty soup would I make today?! Kayla, our patient care coordinator at the clinic made a spicy asparagus soup the other day and as usual I was inspired! So there you have it my friends, another dairy-free soup was born out of necessity of chattering teeth and cold hands! This Floridian admires all my Northern friends; it’s just so taboo to wear socks other then going to the gym here! Did you happen to notice the snow flurries on my post?! Kinda magical without the cold effect but if you are feeling cold make some soup!!!! Once again my taste buds were fooled because this soup has such a buttery and creamy texture you will not believe it is paleo, vegan, gluten free and I am happy to say it also is phase 1, FreeDiet™ compliant (without the bacon smh)! I hope you will enjoy this paleo, vegan, simply delicious and oh so creamy soup (without the cream)! • Chop onion, garlic and add into a big pot with 16 cups of water

Over the years, I have come to understand the difference between one who eats more fish, greens, and vegetables (all the nutrient dense foods) verses one who does not. In general, those that do not partake in these foods often bellyache about how boring or tasteless they are

I had an epiphany! I need to eat more fish! Are you with me? Specifically, I need to eat more of that pink, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B, selenium, postassium and high in protein FISH called salmon! If you took the “bait” about that nutritional lineup, let us continue down that river of good news (wink)! There are so many impressive health benefits on why we all should eat more salmon. Not only for its essential fats that our bodies can NOT create by the way

Disclaimer, these are so darn good we made them 2 nights in a row and there will be NO leftovers!!  Fajitas always sounded unhealthy to me but when I got to thinking about it, I realized if I use clean ingredients this could be revolutionary in my arsenal! Behold the beauty of this sensational hit at parties and when you are craving a fast-food meal! What makes this fajita recipe so amazing is that Siete makes grain free tortillas that are made from almond or coconut & cassava flour for those who need to be nut free or grain free! This clean-eating wrap changed my life!  Seriously, it will change your life too if you are not eating grains or are on the FreeDiet™ like I was! Or if you would love to engage in the taco or fajita gigs with out feeling sick and bloated!  If that didn’t excite you this will be sure to make you giddy….
