looking for natural healthy recipes

[skinnywithin 23]

So I have decided to cut out as many preservatives as possible from my diet. I want to eat as organic as possible, no flour except chic pea flour, spelt flour or almond flour. no sugar, even splenda or fake sugar substitutes either. I will use raw honey. lol Im definitely taking on a challenge but I feel this will be a positive change for me and my family. Im trying to source out some recipes using organic ingredients that are both flavorful and filling. Just wondering if anyone has ideas or recipes to share with me?

I am slowly but surely stacking up some recipes. I just bought a pack of index cards and I have been all over the net taking down simple recipes. Some of them I have saved on Pinterest, so I will link that. Not every recipe there is perfect for what you are looking for, and some of them are for entertaining but I try to keep it to mostly low carb stuff. On another note though, where do you buy almond flour? I'm having trouble locating a.... affordable source.

thanks! I will check out pintrest. i love that site I just never thought of using it for recipes. almond four is expensive here, really no matter where you buy it. I used to buy almonds from costco and grind them into flour myself, with my food processor. and whenever I go to washington I buy it there cause its half the price! have you tried online? maybe you will have better luck!

The cheapest I have found it is on Amazon, but even then its pricey.

Amazon is the cheapest I could find it. Good luck with the natural food route!!! We pretty much eat that way. I highly recommend a book called, "Eat to Live". We don't perfectly follow it but strive to.

You should look into raw food diets as a supplement. What a huge difference in how it makes you feel!
