During Spring, I love adding lot’s fresh vegetables and spring fruits back into my diet. The warmer weather means enjoying lots of salads, juices, smoothies and freshly made meals outside. Dinner today is light, easy to make and deliciously fresh: colorful salad with canned smoked sardines (from Wild Planet—all their products are sustainably caught), avocadoes, the juice of a lemon, salt and pepper! So easy and yummy!
Sardines tend to be an unappreciated fish in the U.S. However, if you like tuna, you should give them a try! Besides being super inexpensive; they are sustainable—small fish that feed off of plankton, making them low in mercury levels; they are a super protein packed with omega 3 fatty acids, calcium, vitamin D, B 12 and minerals such as magnesium, potassium and zinc. They are anti-inflammatory, amazing for bone and heart heath, and an immune system booster! My favorite part: I can be super creative, making different tasty salads with them by mixing and matching different veggies and spices, and I don’t have to clean up extra pots and pans since they are already pre-cooked, and I just mix it all together in a big bowl!
Do you ever feel like you don’t belong in this world, trying to interact with people who can only talk about superficial stuff like alcohol, sports and whatever is on TV or the negative news? Unfortunately, Illness is slowly invading society and taking over our beautiful planet while everyone is so busy living unconsciously, blinded by distractions that are being purposefully created to de-rail us from living our true purpose in live, to love and be loved, to enjoy each moment around our loved ones, really listening and being present, to experience mother Earth’s nature, breathing in and out, pausing, relaxing and giving ourselves time to receive what we need from the Universe so we can reach our maximum potential growth. Then, to act on our mindful thoughts with purpose instead of rushing through this mad race that is only leading us to sickness. I have been waking up! Who is with me?
