Month by month, learning things I should already know by now.

Yay health!

So here's what health month has had in store for me so far.

1) I started using my new cooking tools to make raw vegan gluten-free meals. Here's the first one I tried.


Sweet Potato and Zucchini Mac 'n Cheese


Once I figured out how to use the Spirooli, it was magical. And though I was skeptical about liking the taste of raw sweet potato and zucchini as noodles, it was actually very good. And I didn't even mind it being cold. However, I made enough 'Parmesan cheese' to last me two lifetimes. I'm going to have to cut the size of the recipes in half.

I'm going to try to work my way through the entire 400 recipes from the book! Big challenge, but I'm ready!

2) I've started incorporating 'brain power' supplements into my morning smoothies. I use a spoonful of lecithin granules and a tsp of coconut oil to give my brain a little boost.



So far, lack of sleep has diminished any advantage I may be gaining from it, but hopefully I can rectify that.

3) I started a dance class last night! I took Beginning Modern. It started out with a lot of yoga and then moved into some simple combinations. Afterward I signed up for several more. My mom would be so proud :)
