Just Say No to GMO
Do you even know what is in the food you eat? It is truely an eye-opening experience when you start to educate yourself. Did you know that Genetically Modified Foods often been altered with animal genes- some even rat genes? I strongly encourage you to read up on what you are eating. Sustain the local growing farms by supporting them. You want to know what is in your food. Watch this clever video by Mike Adams for more information.

Roasted Tomatoes with Goat Cheese
I just came across an incredible blog! www.foodpress.com . There are FABULOUS recipes on it. Please check it out. Several Gluten Free Recipes as well!!! YEAH!!
Check out this one below…
Roasted Tomatoes with Goat Cheese
● 2 firm large beef tomatoes, continental type
● sugar to dust, preferably NOT white processed sugar
● Freshly ground black pepper
● 2 tbsp olive oil
● 1 small onion, skinned and very finely chopped
● 1 garlic cloves, skinned and crushed
● 6 anchovy fillets, drained
● 8 basil leaves
● freshly grated parmesan
● 2 tbsp capers
● ½ goat’s cheese log
Cut the tomatoes across in half and arrange them in an oiled baking dish. Sprinkle with a little sugar and black pepper and leave while attending to the other ingredients.
Heat the oil in a heavy-based pan, add the onion and garlic and fry gently for a couple of minutes to soften slightly.
Remove from the heat and stir in the basil, with pepper to taste. (Do not add salt because the anchovies are salty enough.)
Divide this mixture equally onto the tomato halves, Arrange anchovy filets and capers and a slice of goat’s cheese onto each and then sprinkle with the parmesan.
Bake the tomatoes in the oven at 220C/fan oven 200C/425F/Gas 7 for 10-15 minutes or until just tender and sizzling. Serve hot.

A NEW START
Since it is 2011 now. Don’t you want to make something stick? Why not make a N.E.W. S.T.A.R.T.?
N-Nutrition…Start eating more whole, unprocessed foods.
E-Exercise…Start an exercise program.
W-Water…Drink 1/2 your body weight in ozs of water a day. Choose distilled, reverse osmosis, or spring.
S-Sunshine…Sit in the sun even when it is cold 20 minutes- 3 times a week to get some Vit. D.
T-Temperance…Consciously focus on self-control. Think about others before you comment.
A-Air…Breathe good clean air. If you smoke, quit. You have a right to breathe good, clean air.
R-Rest…You need to get adequate rest- at least 8 hours a night for your body to repair.
T-Trust…So much of your overall health depends on your spiritual health. Get right with your creator.
If you would like to elaborate on any of these areas, it will prove to be a better 2011!! Contact me for tips in any of these areas. Would love to help you in anyway that I can.

Are Oats Gluten Free?
This has been a long standing debate. I am gathering from what I have read that the closest you can get to “Gluten Free” oats is found with Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Oats. While this does state that it is “gluten free”, the sensitivity test for gluten does not detect the presence of gluten if it is less than 10 parts per million. These are the safest oats on the market at present. However, any food that is processed at all runs the risk of cross contamination. So just do your homework, look for the oats that are maked with a gluten free label. Just keep in mind that if it is processed you always run a slight risk.
