Trump, Hillary, & Diets … 3 Things you don’t want to talk about

Hey Family,

Did I get your attention.  I meant what I said.  I’m absolutely not gonna talk about Donald Trump.  I’m not gonna mention Hillary Clinton either.  I’m not even going to say the word DIET (well only to explain why this is not one, stick with me!) Cooking with Que does not do diets!! WE EAT TO LIVE.

So before we start our 357 Vegan Fast, we have to get our hearts ready and our minds right.  This is not a diet.  I don’t even want to call it a diet, because the word “DIET” freaks people out.  Calling it a diet means that we just wanna try this and if it doesn’t work we are gonna just try something else.

#FoodCravings, Are you listening to what your Body is telling you?

When your body gives you signals do you pay attention to them?  

Do you know what they are?

I am a vegan and allergic to dairy (nice right?).  I found out as an adult. I used to be sick all the time.  The copays and hospital visits were driving me crazy!! When they found out that I had sarcoidosis, through a lung biopsy - It. Changed. Everything.  On top of that they learned that multiple reactions were occurring due to an egg and dairy allergy.  Do you know how many things have dairy in it? It was even in the pills that several doctors were prescribing.  Now, I pay attention to everything.  I read the labels. I pay attention to what I put inside of my body, I know when it's lacking something.

Start Eating Healthy #LikeABoss

Alright fam,

It's been on my mind to say what everyone else is thinking.

It is absolutely NOT OK, to EAT LIKE CRAP

EAT TO LIVE!!!!

You are what you eat, and because of that I want to make it a point to give you the information that you need to begin. People make it complicated and it’s not. It is a Mindset. You have to see yourself eating differently. You actually have to make the effort. Know what you are buying at the grocery store. Know if you are drinking enough water. Are you listening to what your body is telling you?

Indoor BBQ? #NoProblem

Alright family, have you ever had a taste for something, but in the end you are missing one of the main ingredients?

Well, yesterday, it was me!!!

I wanted to grill everything! I mean everything! I wanted grilled carrots, grilled asparagus, grilled mushrooms, grilled corn, grilled veggie dogs, and grilled salmon for the meat-eaters in my house. I told you… ALL GRILLED EVERYTHING! As soon as I left work, I hit the grocery store and BOOM, I had a cart filled with all the items that I wanted.

Taco Tuesday

Who wouldn't want tacos on Tuesday?

Seriously, after a great weekend, you have to come face to face with Monday (grrrrr), leaving you physically drained and waiting for the weekend to come back around again. Then, Taco Tuesday arrives and it gives you the boost you need, because you know...a fresh, savory taste is coming...wrapped in a warm tortilla and topped with all the fixings - fresh lettuce, tomato, salsa, and guacamole!!! #BlessGod!! Mexican Black beans topped with sriracha (I’m hungry right now!!)

I was trying to figure out the best way to kick off The Cooking with Que blog, but it had to be simple...and incorporate something that everyone loves. #TACOS!!!! (Come on saints… I know your mouths are watering right now lol!!!!) The #TacoTuesday hashtag has taken over the web and I make a pretty tasty Taco (let’s be honest) soooo……. WHY NOT #CookingWithQue for #TacoTuesday?
