I'm so excited to try the soup recipe! This might be something you should consider adding to your newsletter. I, for one, will try each one. It's hard (for me) to take the time to try and find healthy, nutritious recipes... for starters, then I must shop and prepare.

It's so easy to say buy a box of ready made rice, grab a deli roaster chicken, and steam some broccoli or roast Brussel sprouts. Sounds healthy, yes? But in reality it isn't at all. If I read the labels on both the chicken and rice, the additives, preservatives, and chemicals are really damaging. Once in a while it's okay to eat this meal I suppose, but the problem is that it really isn't.

Another is the illusion that buying a simple portion of salmon is the perfect protein for say supper or lunch. Again, the label tells more. Wild caught or farm raised? And what preservatives are used to keep it fresh? We have to be detectives and read every single ingredient when we shop.

Quite frankly it's exhausting to do so, but oh so necessary to avoid building a slow burn to chronic inflammation. Ugh.

You just gave me a leg up with the soup recipe this week, so a big thank you!

I’m so glad you liked the recipe! I plan on adding more recipes to my posts. The key will be that they can’t be complicated or have unusual ingredients that aren’t generally on hand. They also need to be delicious and nutritious.

You made so many great points about the obstacles to eating healthy and making good choices. Thank you!
