Ezekiel Whole Grain Flourless Tortillas

Have you heard of Ezekiel Whole Grain Flourless Tortillas?  Now you have!  These things are amazing.  They may look like ordinary soft tortilla shells, but are SO much better!!  The nutrition is incredible -- each shell is only 130 calories, but is a complete protein with fiber and no added fat.  Plus since they're flourless AND sprouted, it's like eating a whole food... almost like a veggie!  Ezekiel products can be found in the freezer section, and it's recommended to keep them frozen at home until you're ready to use them too.  The wraps are especially easy and filling, great for any meal!

Inspired by the Holy Scripture verse "Take also unto thee Wheat and Barley and Beans and Lentils and Millet and Spelt and put them in one vessel and make bread of it." - EZEKIEL 4:9

INGREDIENTS: Organic Sprouted Whole Wheat, Filtered Water, Organic Unhulled Sesame Seeds, Organic Sprouted Whole Soybeans, Organic Sprouted Whole Barley, Organic Sprouted Whole Millet, Organic Sprouted Whole Lentils, Organic Sprouted Whole Spelt, Sea Salt.

= YUMMY!






Here are a few ways I like to eat Ezekiel Wraps...

Tonight's Giant Turkey Taco.

Breakfast Wrap with Eggs, Bacon, Cheese and Veggies.

Another Giant Turkey Taco.

Quick Boiled Egg, Cheese and Romaine Wrap.

Hummus and Veggie Wrap.

Another Hummus, Cheese and Veggie Wrap.

 

I highly recommend you try these instead of regular tortillas or wraps. They really rock!

As for my eats... a failed green apple smoothie for brekkie (way too tart!), yummy leftover roasted squash soup for lunch, snacked on some raw almonds, a few dried cherries and 3/4 brownie (from T-Tapper Carrie Ann), then made that giant taco for dinner!  Plus I drank 2.5 Lifefactory bottles full of Kangen water 8.5 pH.

Today's T-Tapp exercises:

• Primary Back Stretch and Body Brushing at 7am
• 2 sets of Hoe Downs at 11am
• 2 sets of Hoe Downs at 3pm
• And now I'm going to do the Basic Workout Plus...

Still need to soak my feet in magnesium oil tonight too.  Oh, and I'm going to make some pumpkin puree tonight for my Pumpkin Pie Kale Smoothie in the morning.  And plan on trying out a new recipe for Quinoa Veggie Burgers that don't fall apart for dinner!

Au revoir!

{ weekend } Sister Time

Bonjour!  I'm a bit late on my weekend blog entry.  My sister is here!  Was too busy on Sunday hanging with Abbie to get it done.  After I scooped her from the airport, we went food shopping with my Groupon at the Village Health Market in South Tampa.  I'd never heard of the place, but figured why not when I saw their Groupon since it was a health food store.   The place was really larger than I expected with a huge vitamin/supplement/herb department, hot and cold prepared foods, salad bar, and all the regular natural food store supplies.  Great place, wish I found when I was actually living in Tampa.

Exercise: After lunch Abbie and I went to Enterprise Dog Park with Dog to get some exercise.  We warmed up with Primary Back Stretch first, and used T-Tapp walking techniques on the trails in the park.  It sprinkled a little on us and was still pretty hot, so we only made a few laps. Oh, and we did 10 Triceps Dips on the bench twice.

Cafe Al Fresco and Dunedin Brewery!  And Marcel is playing acoustic songs on Friday at O'Houston's in Largo and I plan to get everyone together for Abbie's last night here. Should be a fun week with Abbie in town. ♥

Welcoming the Autumn Equinox!

{ credit: silvester }

September's Harvest Moon was last night!  Did you see it?  Sadly, I actually missed it.  Tonight the sky is too cloudy to see much of a full moon.  There are celebrations all over the world in honor of the Autumnal Equinox, especially in China for the Moon Festival.  (It looks so neat! Would love to experience that one day.)

Autumn is one of my favorite seasons... when the leaves change and the weather finally starts to cool off a bit.  The air just feels different and more inviting.  Maybe we'll have a somewhat normal fall this year, Florida.

I'm looking forward to wearing sweaters and boots, eating root vegetables and other seasonal, warm and comforting foods, parties by bonfires and camping trips, and my favorite holiday, Halloween, is just around the corner!


Eats

Brekkie

With only a little bit of greens left and zero fruit, I made an Egg and Cheddar on WW English Muffin with a Super Orange Emergen-C.

Snacks

FAGE 2% with Honey after lunch.  And one of these Laughing Cow Light Garlic & Herb late in the afternoon.

Lunch

A simple salad of all the veggies I could find... food shopping is on the to-do list.

Organic Romaine, Chickpea, Tomato, Cucumber, Green Onion Salad.

Dinner

Mushroom Ravioli with Steamed Broccoli and Parmesan Cheese.

Things didn't go as planned this evening, so my workout was sacrificed.  But I did read Chapter 1 of Forever Young by Nicholas Perricone, MD! So far it's very scientific, yet still easy to understand his concept.  I like the health education part of his books...

P.S. I plan on taking better care of myself tomorrow. Exercise in the morning (I really need to work out that stiff feeling when I first wake up), body brushing, oil pulling (got some organic sunflower oil!), take ALL supplements, a green smoothie, and lots of water! Gotta clean up the apartment and get things ready for my sister's visit on Saturday too.  It's gonna be a super fun weekend.  I can feel it!

As I was leaving my apartment community this morning the office staff waved down my car to quickly give me sugary treats and water for breakfast.  I felt obliged to take something so I got the chocolate covered donuts (been craving chocolate lately).  They are SO bad for you!!!  I ate 3 with cookie dough ice cream. *rolls eyes* At least it was tasty though.
