Fun Food #4

Food is so much more fun to write about! Since I started this blog, I have made better food choices and still gained weight. No fair! Part of this has to do with the doctor adding 3 new medications to my routine.  I don't like meds and am really bad at remembering to take them. My LDL is way too high along with my triglycerides. Knowing my dad passed away from a massive heart attack at the age of 63 isn't comforting.

But I am on the right track and learning a ton from my nutrition classes. I am loving all the fruit this summer and still learning how to make great health food. One of my favorite treats now is kale chips. By eating kale chips and juicing fruit, I am doing pretty darn good.

I don't have a lot of self control so for me it is best not to have food in the house that is not healthy. We had a lot of great fruit and salads for the 4th of July.

I love this vegie dish that Rachel taught me. It is healthy and delicious! You can find the recipe on my Pinterest or at http://www.budgetbytes.com/2011/08/summer-vegetable-tian/
