Getting my G-BOMBS

so Dr Joel Furhman has this basic nutrition guidline he calls G-BOMBS.  It stands for Greens, Beans, Onions, Mushrooms, Berries & Seeds.
I do try to conciously meet these goals daily  - check out this on the go meal I made using the baby beet greens from the box, that I sauteed with onions, and served with chickpeas, mushrooms, seitan bacon and then i sprinkled with hemp seeds.



I used the sweet potatos for sweet potato fries. Yum



I made the same Mac & Kale salad as last box from Blissful Bites

The celery i ate in salads with the salad mixand fed to my guinea pig.
