There are several #plantbased projects on @Kickstarter right now, like vegan TruEgg. But I really like the sound of Red Bean Pepperoni made from #wholefoods. https://t.co/RgLyaJ9X72

There's lots of faux meats on the market but I don't know of any made with pinto beans. @Kickstarter by Gail Patak says Red Bean Pepperoni will be Bold, Smoky, and 100% #plantbased. #vegan https://t.co/RgLyaJ9X72

It's ok to be flexible w/your grocery list. Instead of making a strict list, like "raspberries & spinach," write "fruit & greens." You might get to the store & be disappointed by the raspberries, but find that apples & pears look great.

The glycemic index often confuses my clients. For one thing, studies used to determine the glycemic index of foods look at when a food is eaten alone, but most of us don't eat a single food at a time. Learn more at https://t.co/fRYb6xPCzu
