Dinner- I try to always eat dinner by 6pm. If I have dinner, it is small and very lite. Soups and/or salads are great. For a quick soup, I use organic creamy tomato soup (use your preference) as a base, then I add one or more of the following: sweet corn off the cob, avocado, zucchini, flax seed chips, cucumbers, bell peppers, mushrooms, shredded cabbage, or ripped raw spinach. Your imagination again is the limit. This soup is delicious hot or cold, uncooked is always healthier too. You can also blend all soup ingredients for a satisfying creamy broth.

Another simple healthy soup idea is to buy Miso (organic at Whole Foods) soup broth, heat and add any of the above. For a more Asian flare, seaweed, tofu, scallions, mushrooms, and/or noodles can be added. Be creative, it is M’m’ M’m good.

Remember, making your meals colorful not only looks more appetizing, it adds more of your needed vitamins and minerals.

Have cut up vegetables’ handy. They are great for soups, broths, salads, wraps, and snacks. Shredded cabbage, beets, and carrots are deliciously healthy add-ins for all of the above. If steaming vegetables is what you like, don’t overcook them. Only steam until vegetables are a bright color.

For salad dressing, make your own using organic olive or coconut oil, raw apple cider vinegar, lemons, limes, liquid aminos, and/or the juice of an orange, an avocado and some chopped up hot peppers, or nuts or seeds. Find what you like and experiment with your own mixture. My current favorite is olive oil, apple cider vinegar and liquid aminos with a hot pepper chopped up. Whatever you do prepare, have it be from nature made ingredients.

If a sandwich is what you crave at any time of day and weight is an issue, make it an open-faced sandwich (one bread).

Since lunch is usually my biggest meal, more often then not for dinner, I am not very hungry. I will have a piece of manna bread (in frozen section at a health food store) or a healthy rice cake (such as Lundberg brand) with or without nut butter (almond, peanut, etc.) and a piece of fruit. Or, I’ll have a smoothie or fruit salad for dinner. The ideas for soups I listed above are great because they are lite, healthy, and satisfying.

If dinner was eaten early and you are hungry, eat fruit as a snack. It has a cleansing effect while you sleep. A fresh fruit salad is a great way to end your day, delicious too.

If you do cook dinner, try making enough to have leftovers for lunch or dinner the next day. Being prepared is the best way to avoid making the wrong choices that lead to aging and disease.
