Hello 40 Day students,
Thank you for welcoming me into your group. My goal is to provide you with simplified and attainable food ideas while doing the 40 Days program. Eating healthy does take a commitment, but the benefits are wonderful. I encourage you to familiarize yourself with places to buy fresh, vibrant foods. Choose colorful fruits and veggies. Experiment with whole grains. Mix it up and have fun! Eating well is meant to be enjoyable and delicious.

ROASTED KALE
1 bunch kale
olive oil
sea salt
Preheat oven to 450. Wash the kale and strip leaves off stalks. Dry well. Tear into small pieces. Toss in a bowl with a bit of olive oil until lightly coated (maybe 1 tbsp). Spread out on baking sheet and sprinkle with sea salt. Cook for 5 minutes, stir, then cook for another 2-4 minutes, watching carefully so as not to burn. It should be a bit crispy. Enjoy!
SIMPLE QUINOA
1 cup quinoa (keen-wah)
2 cups water
A pinch of sea salt
Rinse quinoa, put in pot, add water and bring to a boil. Simmer covered for 18 minutes or until the ringlets have loosened from the grain. It will have a yummy taste! Great hot or cold!

Add-ins:
