Flip Your Food

Pancakes.  Burgers. Eggs Over Easy. Pineapple Upside Down Cake. No wait, sorry, that isn’t what I meant by “flipping”. If you aren’t mad at me now, I’ll continue. When you plan any meal, start with thinking first about what good and nutritious thing you can include. I think we’ve all been trained to think (or shamed into thinking) about what we should eliminate or minimize in our meals. Thinking things like if I make a pizza I should really cut down on the cheese or if I make a traditional egg breakfast I should cut down or cut out the butter and bacon. This type of thinking is exhausting and I think it sort of sets us up for failure. If you are always eliminating, you can never win, there will always be something else that you can think to minimize or eliminate.


Stir-fry - Peas, two kinds of peppers, red onion, green onion, garlic, ginger, and tofu.

So instead, try this. Focus your energy and thoughts on adding good things to your meals.
