Eating clean..want to know where to start?

Eating clean is awesome. Its not easy, it takes some getting used to, but after you "detox" it's not so bad.



First step, detoxing from the sugar!! The hardest part, for me anyway.  Start with condiments. Almost all condiments have sugar. BBQ, ketchup, salad dressing. Cut it all out. Start making your own! There are plenty of good recipes for BBQ sauce and salad dressing online.

Next, nothing processed!! Nothing with preservatives.

Olive oil and coconut oil are your best friends. I use coconut oil in cooking, as butter, in recipes.

Meats: beef, chicken, turkey, tuna, salmon

Veggies: all!

Fruits: I limit my fruit intake. Too much sugar and fiber means gas...and bloating..

Dairy: I don't digest cow milk products well. So I do goat. Goat milk, cheese, yogurt.  Goat yogurt is my favorite thing in the world. With a little honey and some flax seed...mmmm

This is just the beginning! There are so may recipes you can make with just this. Found some for taco chili, turkey and sweet potato chili, mango salsa salmon..and desserts! For example, I just made pumpkin muffins! Coconut flour, pure maple syrup..yum!
