About Me

My name is Denise and I have an autoimmune condition of the thyroid called Hashimoto's Disease. This diagnosis brings a different set of challenges for each patient although most of us have to make major changes in our diet. Until recently, my diet was high in gluten, dairy, soy and corn. In fact, I didn't even know the names of 75% of the items in the fresh food isle! That's been the biggest obstacle on my quest to wellness. It is the reason I started this blog; to find and share recipes without those inflammatory ingredients. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! If you have a favorite recipe of your own to share, please drop me a note via email or through my facebook page. Thanks for checking out the blog -- I look forward to hearing from you!

Challenge Day #3

Are you guys taking the challenge?  Please share your favorite recipes! 

Breakfast: Protein Shake
[1/2 cup water, 1 tbsp protein powder, 1 banana & 5 cherries (all frozen), slice of melon, 1/4 tsp pure vanilla, collard greens, and ice].

Snack: Sweet Potato Hash
[Cooked sweet potato cubes in coconut oil, sprinkled with cinnamon - love this stuff!]

 Lunch: Salad
[Forgot to get organic chicken so my lunch was very dull lol. Lettuce, cucumbers, dried cranberries and olive oil.  Definitely not a satiating meal].

 Snack: Brisket

 Dinner: Meatballs & Roasted Veggies
[Dr. Myers' meatball recipe with pesto sauce. Roasted some carrots and yellow squash with a little seasoning].
"Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst."
John 6:35
