Cook-A-Latte

~ Welcome ~

In America today, food choices are abundant. Unfortunately, many choices are not healthy for our bodies to consume on a regular basis. Foods like many processed pre-packaged meals, fast food, white sugar laden foods are just a few. There are so many additives and preservatives out there as well. I have chosen to make a concerted effort to buy and cook nutritious foods for my family. This blog reflects healthy recipes and information on healthy eating. I try to reflect a balanced diet where healthy eating is the norm.

The milled flax seed can be bought at Wal-mart. I got a small box for $1.78. You can also take whole flax seeds and grind them in a coffee grinder and put it in all kinds of things: oatmeal, breads, etc. I was just recently blessed with a brand new coffee grinder. So I can now grind up my own flax seeds (which I already have a bag of).

Also, our electricity went out last week for almost two days so we didn't have all the scheduled meals for last week. I've carried those over to this week.
