Most vegetarians and vegans alike are on what seems a constant journey to find great tasting alternative meat substances. Here in the Seventh Day Adventist world it isn’t a true potluck without someone bringing a dish of delicious Choplets a.k.a Adventist Seitan a.k.a Wheat Gluten Steaks! (sorry gluten free peeps… There’s really no way to make these without the gluten 😕).
I was craving a simple red sauce but I really dislike most jarred pasta sauces you find in the store. There is usually too much going on in them,too much sugar, or too much salt. I like my sauce flavor profile simple. I finally found a recipe for sauce I love and it’s easy to make.

Well I quickly found out that being healthy sucks sometimes….All I wanted was some chocolate! Continue reading
About a month ago, I found out that I’m pretty much allergic to almost every deodorant I have tried. Even while using the most natural and organic deodorants on the market I would developed hives, hyper pigmentation, and itchy dry skin. No matter how expensive or natural the deodorant, my skin reacted. I was seriously about to just give up and deal with the pain and discoloration. Continue reading

I have been doing a lot of research on probiotics lately. I’ve been taking them for years for heartburn and to help restore a healthy gut micro-biome. They work beautifully for internal purposes but I was really curious about what they could do for my acne!
