Push for real food

I'm back!  I'm sorry that it has taken me so long to post, but I plan to bring this back in full gear.  Since my photographic skills are so amateur, I will post recipes without pictures.  A picture is worth a thousand words, but a great recipe always trumps a mediocre picture.

I thought it best to take this time to focus on the concept of "real food," if there is such a thing.  I am a foodie through and through.  I believe that God created tasty plants and animals for us to consume and to enjoy in moderation.  I do think we should be responsible consumers and, therefore, force companies to be responsible.  This is the reason I purchase as much organic food as I can afford.  When it's not organic, then it must be natural -- in that I can understand all the ingredients and how they are derived without chemical processes.

I recently finished the book What We Eat by Marion Nestle, and I'm now working on How We Get Fat and What to Do About It by Gary Taube.  If you'd rather catch his ideas in an entertaining documentary, I would recommend Fat Head, which is available on Netflix.

Here we go with a new round of recipes.  Enjoy!
