October

source

i am trying something new for the month of october. something that is guaranteed to get me back into the kitchen. something that i hope will be good for me, educational, challenging, and exciting. wanna join me? october unprocessed

i am going unprocessed for the month of october. that's right, for a whole month, i will not be putting anything processed into my mouth. i am following the eating rules definition

"Unprocessed food is any food that could be made by a person with reasonable skill in a home kitchen with readily available, whole-food ingredients. I call it “The Kitchen Test.” If you pick up something with a label (and if it doesn’t have a label, it’s probably unprocessed), and find an ingredient you’d never use in your kitchen and couldn’t possibly make yourself from the whole form, it’s processed. It doesn’t mean you actually have to make it yourself, it just means that for it to be considered “unprocessed” that you could, in theory, do so."

so, there you have it - my october challenge. i hope you'll stop back and check in on me throughout the month. i hope to have some new, clean, easy, tasty recipes for you. and, if you so happen to be inspired to join me, sign the pledge here.
