DELIVERING DELECTABLE DISHES DAY & NIGHT!

My immediate family has dealt with lactose intolerance, IBS, auto immune disorders and fatal cancer. From Fall '09-Summer 2010 I went from running 1/2 marathons to not being able to get out of bed, plagued with intense headaches, exhaustion and more. With my family history and my own immune system comprimised I was motivated to take a bit of a journey to better health. Slowly I've made considerable changes, (I'm not always 100% vigilant), but I know these changes have helped me return to better health...FOOD CHANGES: I cut out gluten, cut out most dairy, cut down on the "white stuff"-sugar, white rice & flour, decreased the amount of processed foods consumed, drink green smoothies regularly, eliminated red meat and eat more vegetarian and vegan dishes...just to name a few!

I use gluten free (GF) pasta and either a whole grain blend by Nalani Brown or a mix from Kathy Taylor for most bread, cake and cookie recipes-they are awesome! (If you like Kathy's mix, email me to order her cookbook at ishagirlclub@gmail.com.)

GF mix can be substituted straight across for regular flour if you aren't cooking gluten free!

Hope you enjoy!

Grilled Chicken w/ Grilled Veggies (can be Vegetarian)

*Why have I never grilled veggies before?! I was happy to just eat the veggies without the chicken they were so good.  Make up some Lundberg's wild rice blend, sprinkle with additional tamari and serve the veggies over it with or without the chicken.

2 (4oz) skinless chicken breasts
3T olive oil
1 zucchini cut diagonally (approx 6 pieces)
1 summer squash cut the same
1 portobello mushroom, cut in half
1tsp tamari (wheat free)
6 or so asparagus
4 scallions

1. mix tamari with 1 T olive oil and marinate mushrooms.

2. Heat the grill on high and brush chicken with 1T olive oil and season lightly.

3. Place all veggies (ex mushrooms) in a bowl and toss with 1T olive oil, salt and pepper

4. Grill veggies about 1 1/2 min per side

5. Grill mushrooms 2min per side

6. Grill chicken breasts for about 3min on each side (or till done)

Make a bed of veggies and place the chicken on top.
