Have you seen the new Dietary Guidelines for Americans and wonder what to make of them? 🤔
For one, there’s a featured image of an inverted pyramid comprising foods like butter, steak, whole milk and cheese. Then when you get onto the realfood.gov website, you are immediately shown images of a stalk of broccoli, a carton of whole milk, and a piece of steak. But are all foods healthy and good for long-term health as long they don’t come processed and from a factory?

Let’s look at these Guidelines together in more detail. Join me in Ep. 144: New 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans – What You Need to Know [Part 1]

We tried out a new vegan cafe for lunch as a family - it's called Sprouted Oven and is located in Abbotsford, BC. It did not disappoint! We bought some needed plant-based ingredients at affordable prices and also enjoyed hot sandwiches and pizza and salad. It was a delicious adventure and we look forward to going back!

Have you been to Sprouted Oven before? 👇

We tried out a new restaurant nearby called Barcelos Flame Grilled Chicken. Given the name, we weren't sure what plant-based options would be available..but we're pleasantly surprised! The staff was very kind and accommodating and took time to go through the vegan options and make modifications if necessary. We ordered 2 delicious falafel bowl main entrees to share and a bunch of sides like salad, hummus with warm pita bread and cauliflower popcorn to make a full family meal. It was delicious and we will definitely be coming back!

Sometimes health challenges can really seem to be in the way between us and a healthier lifestyle, don’t you agree? Especially if it is back pain or leg pain that prevents us from being able to stand and do much.

So if you have health issues and feel like you won’t have the energy or ability to be standing for hours prepping and chopping plant-based foods, I understand. 🫶

But actually, there are smart ways you can adopt to help you still transition well into a plant-powered way of eating. Learn more from Ep. 142: Can’t Stand Long for Meal Prep? 2 Strategies to Help You Eat Plant-Based

Enjoyed a beautiful sunny but cold afternoon at Cate's Park with the family and some friends. Kids had fun on the playground and exploring the beach at low ride. We even managed to catch the sunset! 🌅 Thankful for clear rainless days like this, friendships and good company.

Plant-Based Power Foods #4: Beans
Starting plant-based but feeling often hungry? Try this - add a bit more cooked or canned beans into your meals. That’s because beans are rich in nutrients like protein, fiber and complex carbohydrates, which will help increase post-meal satiety and fullness. A legume-rich diet also improves digestion, promotes healthy aging and helps you reach better heart health!

Learn more about plant-based eating and cooking with beans here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/141-how-i-save-money-and-cut-plant-based-meal-prep/id1697444279?i=1000745870955
