Eat Clean! Slow Cooker Spicy Lemon-Turmeric Free-Range Whole Chicken & Vegetables

admin — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 13:59:45 +0000

hotandhealthyliving.com I’m not a big fan of clutter, so even though I love to cook my kitchen gadgets are pretty minimal. However, in my book a slow-cooker is an absolute must-have, especially if you have hungry kids to feed! My 51 pound nine-year old son is hands down the biggest eater I have ever seen for someone his size (he’s always been a big eater, but now that he’s getting older and getting bigger his appetite is growing in proportion). Anyway, to keep the little rascal full but still “eating clean”, I find I’ve been turning to my slow cooker more and more frequently. As long as I do a little advanced planning and have the ingredients on hand I can put together a huge meal with less than 15 minutes of hands-on prep. Best of all, I can assemble the ingredients in the morning, go off and do my thing, and come back to a hot and healthy dinner at night. “Clean eating” doesn’t get much easier! The slow cooker also turns out the absolute moistest chicken ever and this recipe is no exception. Tender and juicy, this crowd-pleasing chicken dinner is much healthier than most because the chicken is pastured and free-range (the spices I use also have anti-inflammatory and detoxifying properties). I can’t emphasize the importance of eating chickens that are free to range, pastured and fed the natural diet chickens are supposed to eat. And of course for a chicken to be optimally healthy, it should be exposed to sunlight and be free to move and exercise. This healthy chicken …

Best Vegetarian Recipes l Lentil Walnut Veggie Burgers

How to make Lentil Walnut Veggie Burgers Video. Veggie Burgers are a nutritional alternative to beef burgers. Many people don’t think of making their own veggie burgers but they are really easy to make at home. Store bought veggie burgers are nutritional but often very high in sodium and preservatives. You can substitute the eggs in this recipe with “flax eggs” which are a mix of 6 tbsp ground flax to 2 tbsp boiling water. The milk in this recipe can be substituted with either soya milk or rice milk. This makes the recipe completely vegan! Lentils are high in fiber which makes them a good protector against bowel cancer. I recommend organic, low sodium lentils if you are buying canned. They are an excellent source of protein and are an important source of B vitamins, especially B3, which is essential for both a healthy nervous system and digestive system. They are high in iron, zinc and calcium and are a good replacement for red meat. Like meat, the iron in lentils is better absorbed when they are eaten with a good source of vitamin C like leafy green vegetables. Walnuts are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, a special type of fat that is essential for our bodies, but that the body cannot produce. (Re omega 3 see also flaxseeds.blogspot.com ) Walnuts are also a very good source of monounsaturated fats. Walnuts contain many powerful antioxidants, including ellagic and gallic acids, pus antioxidant phenols and vitamin E. The minerals copper and manganese are also …
