Walnut Pesto Eggplant (V) (GF)

This recipe came to me in one of my dreams and maybe because I’m so in tune with this book that I’m reading, “Eat to Beat Disease” and it really has me thinking about each one of these foods and how to heal the body.

Strawberry Plant Based Summer Salad

I'm here to admit I've had my fair share of salads and not always excited for salads.  I went though years of dieting and restricting and I think I had a bit too many salads - bland at that - and really just dis-assimilated my taste buds!  However, I now have a new appreciation for them, now that I know what I'm doing and how to structure them!  I also like to add lots of flavor, crunch and fats which makes it that much tastier!
