HEALTHY TIPS

*Great tip from Ashley's blog*
Instead of using butter use other better "good oil" sources to build your red blood cells, feed your brain, protect your skin and help aid digestion and even melt fat away:

Omega 3. 6 . 9 Udo's Choice (always use raw to recieve best benefits (found in fridge section of Good Earth or health store)
Coconut Oil (we use in on our flat bread like toast use in soups and sauces (antibacterial) great to also use on skin ie:excema
Grape Seed Oil: Use on salads with a little lime and real salt; perfect oil to cook with more of a light oil.
Avocado Oil, Olive Oil, Hemp seiled Oil and many other great oils that aid the body in different ways

HEALING SOUP

*This recipe is from Ashley. She eats very healthy foods, whole foods, and is extremely knowledgeable in this area.*


-Saute in a good oil, 1/2 onion and 4 cloves of minced garlic for approx 4 min on med or until onions are clear
-Add 8 cups of high Ph water or Pacific Veggie broth (or your own home made veggie broth)
-Add desired veggies ie: celery, cabbage, spinach, carrots, green beans, kale anything that is dark green is going to have the best cleansing effects
-Then warm on Lo/Med for about 20-30 minutes( you never want to cook the veggies to death or they loose a lot of their benefits)
-Then add 2-4 tbsp. of good oils and real salt to desired taste (add this when the soup is not hot because you don't want to change the properties of good oils like Udo's or Hemp etc.)
-Then take desired amount (and a few spoonfuls of raw avocado) you need to feed your youngster and blend in blender or Vitamix until smooth.

*Your child may not like this at first but if you help them understand what it is doing for their little body they will start to grasp on to it. Then when they are healthy and they are going for sweets all the time you can say "okay, then when you feel sick because of your food choices come to Mama and I'll help you become well with Heavenly Fathers Healing Foods":)Or whatever you feel inspired to say as their Mother:)

ANDREA'S CROCKPOT ROAST

Ingredients
1 roast
1 large can of cream of mushroom soup
1 can of water
1 package of Lipton Onion Soup Mix (depending on size of roast)
salt and pepper

Place roast in crockpot. Salt and pepper a lot. Add cream of mushroom soup. Lipton mix and 1 can of water. Cook on low for up to 10 hours.

She severed it on top of mashed potatoes. She says her secret to mashed potatoes is a lot of butter and it little bit of sugar... yes, sugar. (Maybe honey would work too)

LEMONAPPLEADE

*Very yummy and healthy drink from the Duggar family website*
10-12 golden delicious apples- cored & cut into large pieces
2 small lemons-unpeeled & quartered
Put lemons through the juicer first, then apples.
The more yellow the apple, the prettier the lemonade.
Best if served over ice. Putting the lemons through the juicer first
helps the lemonade not to brown as quickly. Enjoy!Serves 6
