Animals products, because they come from the top of the food chain, have more potential to accumulate toxins, especially since the Food Industry has put more focus on quantity than on quality.
Including animal products in your diet can add variety to your diet and provide you with essential vitamins and minerals if you are cautious in selecting high-quality products.
Choose naturally raised, antibiotic free, grass fed beef, hormone-free chicken, wild-caught fish, and organic free-range eggs to ensure that your family is getting a high quality product. When animals are raised in their natural environment and eat their native diet, they naturally produce meats that are higher in minerals, essential fatty acids and vitamins.
Look for organic farms, Farmer’s Markets, and health foods stores in your community to purchase humanely raised, organic animal products.
Spaghetti Squash
• 1 spaghetti squash
• 1 pound grass fed ground beef
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 green pepper, chopped
• 1 onion, chopped
• 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
• 1 zucchini, chopped
• 1 jar tomato sauce or use your favourite homemade spaghetti sauce recipe
Cut squash in half, scoop out seeds and place on a baking sheet face down. Bake squash at 350 F until spaghetti-like consistency. Scoop the flesh out of the skin with a fork. Cook ground beef in a skillet until no longer pink. Add garlic, green peppers, onion, zucchini and mushrooms and sauté until vegetables are tender. Add tomato sauce and heat through. Cover spaghetti squash with sauce and enjoy this take on an old classic!
