Enough was enough. Y’all. Apologies for TMI in advance but this girl was getting bloated and gassy, after every meal! I finally made time this past summer to see a nutritionist.

Fast forward to present, and I’ve scored a slew of amazing recipes in all categories (main dishes, sides, desserts and breads).
I actually enjoy eating this way and I could tell an immediate difference once I removed the old bread items. Once the additives were removed, and everything consumed was raw and clean, I could taste the real food and actually craved vegetables, specifically sweet potatoes.

Getting the kids on board has been challenging, but I am incorporating more fruits and then need to focus on the veggies. 🙂
