Over the past year or so our family has been making the effort to reduce intake of processed food.
Why...because food in plastic or a can is evil! OK I’m joking, well half joking, I haven’t become a complete , brown rice eating, roman sandal wearing, only organic eating, whale loving, new age greenie.....yet!
My eating philosophy is simple: FAT IS NOT BAD. SALT IS NOT BAD. SUGAR IS NOT BAD. The real enemy is processed food with its additives and mountains of processed, refined sugars and sodium that we only know about if we dare to read the fine print.
So what has the family done about it? We are now eating more home cooked produce e.g. home made pizza, home made cookies, home made juices (don’t kid yourself – carton juices are evil! Do yourself a favour and have a coke.) And pictured below is the latest addition to our repertoire; homemade pasta. Yes it takes time, but the improvement in taste over packaged pasta makes it worth, aside from any health benefits.
