the perfect lunch

Umm umm . . . good! Always delicious. Always nutritious. Always filling. Always make me feel great! This is the way to go when you love your body. Makes a great lunch (or dinner).

STEAMED VEGETABLES

1-Wash and chop the vegetables of choice.

2-Steam lightly (usually 5 min.) Be careful to steam only long enough that the flesh can be stabbed easily with a fork, and the color is still a "bright" and vibrant green color.

3-Spray lightly with olive oil or dab with coconut oil and sprinkle with REAL salt. Serve immediately.

My favorites include:


a bed of Asparagus garnished with Grape Tomatoes


Broccoli & Cauliflower w/ Red Onion


a plate of fresh cut Green Beans & Olives


Zucchini & Summer Squash w/ Tomato


power packed meal of Brussels Sprouts


Mix if up! Cauliflower, Broccoli, Zucchini, Crooked Neck Squash, with Red & Green Pepper
