A Yogurt Review!

  I tried a new yogurt!  Yes - yogurt.
The Brand - Noosa, finest yoghurt              
 Image result for noosa yoghurt


Although I don't digest dairy milk very well, I have no problems with yogurt.  This yogurt has a smooth, thick consistency with pureed fruit on the bottom.  What's special about this yogurt is that the cows that produced the milk to make this yogurt were not treated with rBGH (an artificial growth hormone).  This yogurt was made on a family-owned dairy farm in Bellvue, Colorado.  For more information about Noosa or to find a store in your area that carries this brand, go to Noosa Yoghurt.




I purchased a 4-pack of 4oz cups in tart cherry for about $3.29 at Kroger's.

I do plan to repurchase.  I noticed on the Noosa Yoghurt website that this yogurt can be found in Target.  It comes in several other flavors including strawberry rhubarb and pumpkin - which I have yet to try.

If you have tried this brand, let me know in the comments.  Did you like it?

Prayer - Stop Worrying!



Heavenly Father,


Thank you for your grace and mercy.


Help me, God, to stop worrying about people, situations and things that I cannot change. Show me what to do, how to do it and when to do it.  


In the meantime, grant me peace .


In Jesus’ s name,
Amen.

New Living Translation
Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. (Philippians 4:6)


King James Bible
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. (Philippians 4:6)


New International Version
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. (Philippians 4:6)

Meatless Monday #37

White Bean Chili

chopped garlic
fresh diced tomatoes
chopped bell pepper
Mrs. Renfro's Salsa  (Add this ingredient based on the amount of heat that you desire.)
chili powder
cumin
navy, northern, or some other light colored beans
Bush's Vegetarian Beans  (I like the taste that these beans add to the chili.)

 
Enjoy your chili with a fresh salad and a slice of cornbread, or with whatever you usually have with a bowl of chili!

Meatless Monday #36

Red Beans and Rice 
Boiled Corn on the Cob
 
 
 
This red beans and rice dish did not include any meat - just plenty of tasty seasonings!  I started off by sautéing chopped garlic and onions in olive oil on low heat.  Then, I added dark red beans into the mixture and seasoned with a pinch of celery salt and Tony's creole seasoning.  After allowing the flavor from the garlic and onions to marry with the beans, I added cooked brown rice and simmered on low for about thirty minutes.  I paired this dish with fresh boiled corn, but feel free to eat it with any other vegetable of your choice!  
 
 
Have you ever eaten the vegetarian version of red beans and rice?  If so, how did you prepare it?

Daniel Fast Chronicles #4

Daniel Fast Chronicles #4


On June 21st, I completed the 21 day Daniel Fast!
 
".....It is finished..."
John 19:30

  • I experienced no indigestion after eating beans - interesting observation.  Could it be the lack of added sugars, the lack of dairy and meat?  --hmm
  • I really don’t have to add any sweeteners to my oatmeal.  Fresh fruit and raisins are enough.
  • During the fast, I did not experience the heaviness that I often feel after eating certain meals.
  • I plan to periodically use the Daniel Fast for cleansing.

Daniel Fast Chronicles #3

F-O-C-U-S


being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

Philippians 1:6
NKJV


Reflections



  • I am enjoying preparing Daniel Fast meals
  • I have come to the conclusion that bread is really filling - I haven’t had any bread since starting the fast.
  • Last Monday, I had sprinkled cheese on my salad and sour cream on my baked potato.  Yep, I temporarily interrupted my fast.  I was eating with co-workers.  After that meal, I returned to Daniel Fast foods.
  • Never before have I drunk so much water!  But, that's a good thing. 
  • For a couple of days, I had a fever blister and a few pimples.  I think my body may have been purging itself from toxins.  
Check out the following video to find out what I've been eating.
