Tips For Eating and Living Well
I know I say my recipes are great all the time, but I’m going to say the same thing about this Enchilada Casserole Supreme. I’ve been making a simplified version of this for years, based off of a recipe in Dr. Joel Fuhrman’s Eat to Live book. I’ve served it to family, friends, and even non-veggie-eating teenagers with rave reviews. And now, finally, I’ve improved upon it and published it so all of you can try it, be nourished, and hopefully love it as much as I do! …
It’s January, it’s cold, and I’m trying to be extra healthy in the wake of my holiday diet indiscretions, so all I really want to eat is nutritious soups.

It’s nothing short of an ordeal. So yesterday I was determined to come up with a recipe using ingredients I already had, and what I created was so delicious, I decided to share it!

I’ll admit, up until a couple of years ago I did not like beets. Whenever I tried them, I thought they tasted like dirt. I’ve since decided that the reason for this is that I was eating, well, dirt. But then I tried roasted (dirtless) beets, and I loved them! The key is peeling the beets rather than just scrubbing them, apparently. And roasting them really brings out their natural sweetness and gives them a nice soft texture. Mmmmm……
Spaghetti Squash Pie
If you have never cooked spaghetti squash before, it’s time for you to try it. It’s so much easier to cook than actual pasta, and is 10x better for you! …
