I know this is VERY late to the discussion, but I know many a vegetarians/vegans who can still be unhealthy. If she stick to a 'whole' food plant based lifestyle then she will be right as rain. We need starches to keep us satiated. Without them we will never feel full. I live on rice, potatoes...

You can also use Nutritional Yeast. I use it on so many different things. And most folks who go vegan don't even have to worry about B12 for 3 years after doing so. By then you should have enough information to know what to do in your eating lifestyle.

So many people get freaked out about not getting enough protein. Does anyone know of anyone that has Kwashiorkor? I am going to say that I highly doubt it. That is what you get when you have a diet low in protein. And in order to get that disease, you would have to be malnourished. So I tell...

Looks like chia sprouts, only because I recentlys aw a photo of them. But they are some sort of sprouts.

You are correct Bucky. I would have to say that most folks who eat out are not looking for the good home-cooked style food. At least not like thier granny use to make. And if they think just because Cracker Barrel says home cooked food, they are sadly mistaken. They want what is fast and...

I think the show is a bit over dramatic, but then all relaity shows are (I still do not see how they are reality shows. No one follows me around in my life). I think he has the right idea, but he is fighting a serious battle and the big businesses who are making the big money off selling that...

We here, in our home, if ever, eat out and for many reasons. 99% of what is in restaurants is processed foods, not trying to find something healthy is near impossible. Plus I know what is going on in my kitchen and going into my food. On the rare chance I do eat out, I split the meal with...

Try using agave in place of artificial sweetners, those things are in a bad way. And agave is do-able for diabetics as well. When my husband/we switched from white table sugar and moved over to agave, all his stomach problems went away. Who knew it was that easy.

I saw that someone recently no longer says diet, they now say live-it. Makes sense to me. And I totally agree with the fact that any food program that limits what we all know to be common sense rules in the food world cannot be all that great.

I am a vegetarian and have been coming up on 2 years in September 2010. I am on my way to being vegan and seriously considering going raw. But I am unsure just how raw I want to go. I have never felt better. -I don't measure my food (for eating that is) -I don't count calories -I don't...

Green smoothies: 1 bag of spinach 1 cup frozen fruit (give or take) 1 banana Honey or agave (liquid sweetner is better) 1/4 cup oatmeal (optional) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I make these in my nearly 30 year old Hamilton Beach home blender. Now I know that if I want to do tougher greens, that I...

I am having this same problem and I am not on Vista. And...I see threads that supposedly have replies, but when I click on to that specific thread to view the replies, they are not there. Yet on the main forum page it shows 'x' amount of replies. 1) I am not seeing my posts (only after I hit...

I'm wondering also if enough viewers wrote in wanting him back and they felt they should honor their viewing public's wishes?

I no longer feel the need to 'lose' weight. What I try to do now is just eat healthy. Does that mean I have totally given up on the foods I love? No way Jose. The big things that I think have helped our family do better is to no longer eat out. And I mean not eat out at all. And we have let go...

We will be making basil pesto for the first time with basil fresh from our garden. wish us luck! :wink:

This is my first year to bat when it comes to any type of gardening. I was made to do yard work as a kid and in the heat of the day and in Florida. You do the math. But in my wiser years I am learning to love being in my garden. I just do it late in the afternoon and early evening as not to...

I used to watch her religiously, but then it hit me, she uses tons of processed foods. And that is something that we are eliminating from our diet (and not doing so bad, I might add). I know her plan of action may work for the SAD (Standard American Diet), but not in this household. But we do...

And because of his excessive use of 'colorful' language, is thee exact reason I refuse to watch him. I mean come on, how many times in a 3 minute period does someone need to say the 'F' word. It's a cooking show, not a swearing show.

I'm a vegetarian so you're barking up the wrong tree, but try juicing. You can add fruit to them and Viola, your veggies taste sweet.

The World according to Italy. At least in her eyes. It's as if no other country knows how to cook. And love how she speaks Italian for those special things only belonging to Italy. Spi-ghitti :ermm:

My father was born at the height of the Depression and my grandmother use to tell us some stories that would make your head spin. And to think families were much larger at that time. My grandmother came from a family of 5 and my grandfather came from a family of 12. And back then you didn't...

I finally caught the commercial and here is the website that says there is nothing wrong with HFCS...go figure. SweetSurprise - Factual Information About Common Sweeteners like Sugar, Honey and High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS)

I can't find anything on the site about this, so I am asking here. Has anyone seen these commercials? Touting the goodness of HFCS. There is a website to visit displayed during the commercial, but I cannot remember it. Does anyone happen to know what the website is?? Thanks in advance...

We love Boca Burgers. My daughter is a vegetarian and uses them frequently. I have 2 burger recipes I remember form days working at Denny's. 1) The Circle D Burger: Grilled onions 2-3 strips of veggie bacon Slice of veggie cheddar cheese BBQ sauce (We have not tried this dish...

I have a vegetarisn daughter, so no meat goes in our beans and we do fine and dandy. So many poeple feel that have to season beans with meat to obtain flavor...oh so no. You just have to know what spices to add to make sure that your beans are flavorful. I have some great bean recipes. Too many...
