busy life

We have still been eating alot less process foods. God is so kind to keep encouraging me. I have read many articles on cancer these last few weeks and so many of them say if you avoid processed foods and sugar your risk for cancer is so much less.
So I spend hours in the kitchen on the weekends making muffins and breakfast bars all with completely natural ingredients to feed my kids instead of cereal.

We are all enjoying it.
We had 2 birthdays and Easter so we have had many "cheat" or "bad" days but this is still a line I havent decided how I want to cross. As far as if we want to never eat that terrible stuff or just occasionally and what that will all look like. We are learning as we go.

day 7



Breakfast- I was getting tired of the same scrambled eggs so I made this.
10 eggs
1/3 cup coconut milk
4 pieces of cooked bacon
2 green onions
1/2 orange pepper
handful of spinige ripped up
made it yesterday and baked it this morning 350 for 28 min. It was good however I dont like cooked spinage so I would omit that next time. I sprinkled tumeric on it because its a good anti inflammatory.
