But I still try to keep my pantry (and fridge) stocked full of locally grown and organic produce nonetheless. I always enjoy reading the articles on Summer Tomato and love the recipes so keep it up!

One bonus of healthy eating (besides weight loss, longevity, deliciousness and social responsibility, of course ;) is I haven't had so much as a cold in over 2 years!! Your blog is really creative and adorable. Thanks again for making contact! Thanks for stopping by Debra and I’m sorry to hear about your illness!

I signed up to do the challenge, but after getting bronchitis almost 3 months ago, I'm having major problems with my lungs and asthma and it's all I can do, just to keep up on my blog. Today I decided to check out the forum and found you and I'm so glad! My husband and I want to start eating better, so that we can get healthy.

I save tons of money cooking for myself too. It is a bizarre myth that healthy eating is too expensive. I followed you on Twitter and look forward to keeping up. Thanks for the link, it looks like a wonderful resource for healthy eating. Thank you Monique! I save tons of money cooking for myself too. It is a bizarre myth that healthy eating is too expensive.

For example, rather than switching the family from white rice to brown rice try introducing them to quinoa or bulgar, and prepare it with a popular ethnic recipe like tabouleh. That way they do not feel like they are being cheated out of a favorite dish, but instead get to try something new and exciting. I'm glad they are happy to eat their vegetables :) Sometimes it is easier to introduce something new rather than change something that is familiar.

I recommend keeping it on a mobile device so you always have it with you. After awhile, though, shopping like this becomes second nature. Yes, having a permanent list is very useful.
