Plan Ahead. Shop Smart. Eat Healthy. Planning your meals ahead of time will save both time and energy when it comes to shopping, preparing your meals…and cleaning the kitchen! But most importantly, knowing that you already have a healthy meal planned will alleviate the stress of scrambling to get dinner served on a busy evening, without sacrificing your diet. The Perfect Meal Plan is designed to help you enjoy eating healthy.
Organic… Food For Thought We believe that choosing organic, unrefined foods that are free of preservatives and unnatural ingredients is always the healthiest option. pg. 3

to use those designed for refrigerator/freezer use.
…a word about dairy. Milk: organic, regular pasteurized, ultrapasteurized, or straight from the cow, the debate continues.
Who knew that milk would be the source of such controversy. We’ve always been told that consuming this dairy product was an excellent way to maintain healthy bones. But now, it seems that many believe that there is the potential danger in consuming “conventional milk”. With so many contradictory reports, the growing concern for finding healthier, organic alternatives has created much confusion for most consumers. For many, particularly those who are lactose-intolerant, this dairy debate is a moot point. Having to live with the discomfort and sickness associated with consuming dairy products is clearly evident for those in this large percentage of our population. We believe that making informed decisions about the foods you purchase is important. But considering the
actual source of those foods is equally as important. Therefore, given the most basic of fact, that consuming foods and their bi-products (such as meat and dairy) that have been fed a naturaldiet (grass), and that have not been exposed to questionable living conditions, antibiotics and growth hormones, “natural” sources are the way to go. We understand that options can be limited for some consumers, due to cost considerations and the local availability of such products.
items are conveniently available at many local retailers, making it yourself allows you the freedom to control exactly what foods you’re eating, and the added confidence in knowing that you are preparing healthy and nourishing meals.
Eat natural. Eat healthy.
So while many of our recipes include dairy ingredients (such as butter, cheese and yogurt), we also offer “non-dairy” alternatives.
So be sure to check out our substitution options, such as coconut or almond milk, and other dairy-free alternatives, where noted.
We have also taken the time to include recipes for many common food items, that you can easily make at home.
Most importantly, read your food labels, and stay informed about your food choices. This is the best way to approach maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle.

pantry pointers… What does your pantry storage system say about you? Taking just a few minutes to de-clutter your kitchen can be key to your success when planning meals and grocery shopping. Start by clearing out your pantry shelves/cabinets. Then, see what items pass this simple test to determine what stays, and what goes: 1. Has it reached or exceeded its expiration date? 2. Do you use it very often? 3. Do you like it? 4. Is it “healthy/useful”? If not, throw it out, and make room for improvement!

freshness tip… Many fresh foods, from apples to zucchini, have a longer shelf life when properly stored in the refrigerator. Avocados do well in the refrigerator also, but should first be ripened. However other foods, such as garlic, onions, and squash, prefer a cool, dry environment. Proper storage is key to getting the most out of your fruits and veggies. 5

The wonder of coconut! Did you know that coconuts, which are rich in lauric acid (a nutrient comparable to mother’s milk) is an excellent dairy substitute? Coconuts are one of nature’s most versatile foods when it comes to your health. Coconut milk, oil, water, cream, butter…all parts of this wonder food offer the natural benefits of Omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, essential vitamins and minerals! 6
