Welcome to Healthy Cooking with Mimi where it’s all about you. Our focus on this blog will be healthy recipes and tips for creating a healthy lifestyle. Our goal for this blog will be to prepare healthy foods and easy recipes, I will focus on many different cooking styles, including an anti-inflammatory cooking plan. I’m new at this so we’ll be evolving together.
You won’t be “dieting”, counting calories, or going hungry. Think about your favorite foods and favorite tastes. You will be eliminating processed foods and all the high fructose corn syrup.
My name is Joyce and I’m the author of this blog, although I do hope that readers will offer their tips, ideas, and successes they might see while changing over to healthy eating.
I grew up in a time when all our food was made from scratch. Processed foods just were not in the picture. Frozen food selections were vegetables and ice cream, and don’t forget the advent of TV dinners. My mother cooked everything from scratch because frankly, that was the food available. Foods weren’t loaded with chemicals and preservatives. The most used preservative was most likely salt. We made our jams and jellies and my mother canned fruits and vegetables which were stored on the shelves for winter foods.
Between us, we’ll offer tips and suggestions on the right foods to eat to reduce inflammation, and why foods, such as, nightshades are best to avoid. Let’s get healthy and stay healthy together.
Bottom line, I am passionate about food being my medicine. In my opinion quality, (and organic if available) foods and quality water are the answer to good health and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I say in my opinion because this blog in no way offers any medical advice. If you are sick and have any illness, please seek professional advice from your health practitioner. I can only relate to my own experiences.
