RECIPE OF THE WEEK:
Cucumber Boats:
Cut cucumbers in half lengthwise; remove and discard seeds. Cut a thin slice from bottom of cucumber if necessary so they sit flat. In a bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Spoon into the cucumbers and EAT.
 
Mix Salmon (I used canned actually) with juice from one lemon, 1/2 tbsp. of olive oil, chopped celery, red peppers and onions.
 
Easy Peasy!
   
RECIPE OF THE WEEK FOR KIDS:
Healthier Mac n Cheese:
There is such a thing as Organic Mac n Chz and even ones with rice noodles!
BUT - it's super easy to make your own.
Use pasta of your choice.
Melt organic American cheese and mix it with 1 tbsp. of grass fed butter.
Boil cauliflower and then blend until liquid like. Mix in as much or as little cauliflower into the cheese mixture and pour over pasta. Kiddos will never know the cauliflower is in there. :)
   
SUPPLEMENT OF THE WEEK:
Vega Chocolate Protein
I can vouch for this stuff - delicious chocolately vegan protein powder! You can order it here.
