    Reasons to Try a Plant-Based Diet for Christmas

    November 10, 2020

    After we get our fill of Christmas treats and family dinners, we start thinking about our health and making New Year’s resolutions. Why are you waiting till  January to take up a health challenge? Indeed, that does seem to be the best month to try out your Veganuary, or start my 12-week Eating Smarter and Getting Healthy plan, but why not start for Christmas? Do you have a friend or someone in the family who is already vegan or vegetarian? Could veganism be a lifestyle you might appreciate?

    Crushing My Craving For Pasta

    March 2, 2018

    Foodies, I am still battling my love for PASTA. Despite my recent doctor’s advice, see my post http://joannsfoodbites.com/ways-to-lower-bad-cholesterol-triglycerides/ I am still cooking it at least once a week (okay, it was twice last week). Believe me, the Lightlife plant-based, soy product  was great, but I can’t travel 30 miles to the nearest store for it, on a regular basis.   Imagine my jubilation, when I saw an advertisement for a new Dr. Oz show titled… END THE WAR ON PASTA! Food journalist, Mark Schatzker, who wrote, The Dorito Effect: The Surprising New Truth About Food and Flavor was the guest, who explained a new research study released in the Nature’s Nutrition and…

    Lightlife’s Savory Plant-Based Food Innovations

    February 8, 2018

    As I mentioned at the beginning of the year, one of the biggest food trends for 2018 will be the expansion of plant-based food innovations, such as plant protein sources and Lightlife is one of the pioneers. Read my Food Trends for 2018 article here Plant-based diets are dominating the food world.  Several manufactures are diving head first into using science to manipulate plant-based ingredients resulting as innovative products. Lightlife uses plant proteins, such as soy and beans to create delicious, healthy food choices for those wanting to steer away from meat based protein sources. What is Lightlife? In 1979, Lightlife was created to provide protein alternatives to vegetarians.  However,…
