{Farmer's Markets/Whole Foods}
Usually I would be the first one to suggest that we go to a burger joint or somewhere where I can indulge in overly seasoned fried treats but the last few years have definitely changed my eating habits. As I get older I have noticed several of the following: my body doesn't react well to the foods I used to eat without inhibition, my energy level reflects what I consume, and most importantly- my personal vanity is more critical than ever so exercising and eating healthy is a lifestyle. With all these factors I started to do changes in my diet and find things I liked and didn't like. I would listen to my friends and see what trends or new things they were trying. Some of them are vegetarian, pescatarian, no-carb lovers, and others eat without worry. Within time I found one ingredient that I personally love and is amazing in almost everything: Kale. I use it in about everything from smoothies to stews. There are so many great recipes such as this smoothie, snack, or even this amazing salad.
