Honey & Almond Dessert

This is a desert "recipe" that is catered toward a diet that is trying (or has to ) eliminate gluten/processed foods, but it is a delicious, healthy desert for anyone with a sweet tooth. Simply put a handful of almonds in a cup/bowl, and then add enough honey to coat each almond. It tastes nutty and sweet (obviously) but neither flavor is too strong. The protein in the almonds helps to keep you full, and can therefore stabilize unhealthy eating habits- plus the both ingredients are energizing, so this is a great way to start your day. Enjoy!

Raw Food Diet


I have recently (two days ago) begun a raw food diet, where basically I try to avoid processed foods and gluten/starchy carbohydrates. It hasn't been too hard yet, and I feel that it will become easier as I become more used to this diet. I have felt more energized, even though this new nutrition plan has only been in affect for a couple of days. Eliminating processed foods from your diet has countless benefits- more energy, weight-loss, a lower risk of certain diseases/disorders/health problems, it benefits your skin, can boost brain power, and establish an overall well-being. I look forward to trying to keep up this diet for as long as I can and will report back alternative recipes, snack ideas, and results.
