I’m not someone who advocates a certain type of diet and I love exploring with vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free,paleo, raw and so on, I am by no means ‘anti’ any food groups and I appreciate that people will have differing requirements for their way of living.
I do, however, have one criteria, I use only whole foods, I avoid processed goods, aspartame and foods containing words and additives I can’t even pronounce!
Cooking like this may appear more time-consuming but I can guarantee you that the end result is far more rewarding not only for your health, but for the all important eating experience and the salivating taste buds.
