Feel Good Food

I ate vegan pizza 3 nights in a row this weekend. Don’t judge me. Not mad about, not one bit. Why? Because 1. I’ve discovered a new love for pizza, 2. Because cashew cheese, yes please, and because 3.  I’m trying to gain weight and I don’t give AF. I put what I want in my body without guilt and I enjoy it more, which in turn causes less cravings for things that maybe I shouldn’t eat so often. Ok, ok no I don’t make a habit of eating pizza 3 times a week on a regular basis, but when I do I am  going to enjoy it to the fullest and that’s exactly what I did.

So today I felt like making some feel good food. Most feel good food I can think of is Soup. So I made a Vegan Tuscan White Bean and Kale Soup with Sourdough bread.  YUMMMMMMM! Even Kala had some that I mixed with her food, she licked the bowl clean, all but the Kale:/ Baby girl don’t like her greens I guess. Super easy to make.

Chop up 4 cloves of garlic put in pan with some olive oil, sautéed on low heat, put in large 6qt pot. Cut up 1 medium sweet pot and 3 Yukon golds into 1/4 inch squares, cut up 2 stalks of celery, put in pot mix up season with sea salt, pepper, oregano and coriander. Sautéed in pot for about 10 mins. Add 2-3 cans on white cannelloni beans and 4 cups of vegetable broth. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Then cover and reduce heat to medium. Cook for about 10 mins or until potatoes are cooked through. Add 1 bundle of kale torn up into smallish pieces, cook till wilted. About 2 mins. Top with sun dried tomatoes and serve with soft sourdough bread to soak up the yummy goodness.

Sourdough is prob my favorite bread to eat guilt free. It has good bacteria, its easier to digest, has natural preservatives, good for blood glucose regulation, and better absorption of vitamins and minerals. So eat more bread!
