Day 17 - Weird Questions

I'm sure you've gotten some questions about why you eat the way you do.  It's quite weird to hear that so many people are shocked when they see a plate of meat, vegetables and nuts.

What are some odd questions you've received throughout the last two weeks?  Any odd comments?

Post food and thoughts to comments.

  1. I was wondering who's brussel sprouts were on yesterdays post. How did you make them??

  2. Pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees (F), coat the brussel sprouts (I used frozen, straight out of the bag) w/olive oil & salt & pepper. Don't drown them (about 2-3tbs. olive oil). Roast in the oven for about 15-20 minutes or until they get brown on one side. Shaking the pan periodically throughout the cooking time helps to coat all sides. Hope you like them! I eat them at least twice a week:).

  3. I've make kale chips a few times that I really like.

    Heat oven to 425 F
    Wash the kale and chop into bite sized pieces.
    Drizzle with a little olive oil, salt and pepper.

    Bake for about 30 minutes until the leaves are crispy. The kale will be crunchy like chips.

  5. Melissa, that sounds delicious! A great way to combat the cravings for a salty snacky type of food. I'm going to try these! :)
