Hi Everyone,

I’m new here and this is my first time posting to this blog site. With the current concern over cholesterol and the lowering of it, I’ve decided to post a very informative video presented by Sally Fallon Morell (author of Nourishing Traditions cookbook) titled, The Oiling of America. This video shows many great reasons to switch to REAL foods and avoid the processed low fat foods. It’s two hours long, but well worth your time. Enjoy!!

Amy March 23, 2012 at 4:50 pm

Excellent, Roseann- thanks for sharing with us!

There are so many labels on Chicken eggs – which one will you choose? This week i’ve linked up a feature video called “The Story of An Egg” and asked the question above…. come share your egg style.

Kendahl @ Our Nourishing Roots March 23, 2012 at 10:28 pm

This week I’m sharing my latest REAL FOOD 101 post about how to make whey and “cream cheese” from dripped yogurt. So multi-purpose!

Second, I have a dual recipe for my tried and true pie crusts. I make an excellent sprouted flour version, but while I was on GAPS I also honed my favorite GAPS-legal one using coconut flour.

I’m also giving my recipe for the best breakfast I have had in a while: Chocolate Chip Buttermilk Waffles with Blackberry Sauce. Oh my, these nearly put me in a food coma a few mornings back, and then about an hour later I was burning with energy. Yum :)

Excellent! Thanks Kendahl! Have a great weekend!

Have you heard of “grain fed” meat? Why is it that grocery stores insist on marketing that to customers like that’s a good thing??

….this week i’ve posted my recipe for homemade hearty beef stew & a good rant about grain fed meat.

Reply

Amy March 28, 2012 at 2:42 pm

Terrible, isn’t it We were at a restaurant once and asked if they had grass-fed beef (as we don’t eat grain-fed). They told us “Oh no! We certainly don’t have that…the cows have to be corn- fed…for HEALTH!” LOL!! How misinformed. We didn’t eat there and left promptly after telling them they were incorrect- that grain-fed (or corn-fed) cows are sick animals and that grass-fed animals are healthy and fit for consumption.
