Collard leaves make a great base for wraps. They are big and flexible, strong enough to hold lots of fillings together and do not have a strong taste. I would rather eat a big green leaf any day than a carb-loaded flour based tortilla. The nutrition skyrockets in comparison and after you try this you will see how delicious it is, as well as how clean and energetic you feel after eating it, as opposed to heavy and bloated. My favorite filling is a nutmeat patty and lots of great toppings. The taco wrap version is one of my favorites and here I will show you exactly how to make it. || Read more
This workout has 5 rounds. 3 of them are cardio (Full Heart) rounds, and they are a mountain climbers/high knees/jumping jacks combo that should take under 2 minutes for each. These are done around the 2 interval parts which are both made up of different exercises, so you won’t get bored! I like to mix up the exercises. both it’s great for the body to use different muscles and also to keep the brain entertained so it’s busy thinking about what to do next and then the time just flies by and before you know it, another workout done! I hope you enjoy this one. I thought it flowed along well and was a fun one! || Read more
These nutmeat patties are delicious and filling too! They are versatile and I like to eat them in a number of different ways. They are great in a wrap or sandwich or great crumbled in top of zucchetti and marinara sauce. Sometimes I even make them into round balls, so they are like meatballs. I love them crumbled on top of a big salad or just eat them on the side with any meal. || Read more

Ysabel LeMay explores the beauty, complexity and divinity found in nature in her artwork. This Canadian artist was a highly successful graphic artist, but left corporate advertising to devote herself to painting full time from 2002 to 2010, when she turned her attention to photography. Her works look like high realism paintings but they are a process that she calls photo fusion, a lengthy process in which she takes hundreds of photographs and assembles them one at a time into her composition. Each piece takes 4 to 8 weeks to complete. || Read more
