No processed food in my kitchen or take-out for at least 15 years. I weigh 112 and often forget to eat. Don’t give one single hoot about food and hate to cook.

Easiest weay to cook potatoes and veggies is to scrub them, cut into bite-size pieces and steam them. Do a few day’s worth at a time. Steaming is easiest way to cook and preserves the most nutrients. Meat? Only boneless, sinless chicken thighs, organic. You can get them everywhere. Safeway, Trader Joe’s, Natural Grocer, Kroger/Fred Meyer in our ‘hood, etc etc.

Protein is quick and easy to saute in olive oil. Alaskan salmon and organic extra firm tofu on alternate nights. Extra virgin olive oil is good on fork-mashed potatoes with ground pepper and a little bottled parseley on top. Organic frozen veggies come in large-enough freezer bags. My faves from Safeway, tiny pieces steam through really fast.

Fetish: Cranberriy sauce. I buy several cans in a reasonably large box at AMZ, always have it with chicken. Veggie sauce from AMZ is organic salt-free salad dressing. I buy 3 bottles at a time so it’s always there

Getting my very slender butt into the kitchen taakes far more time than cooking.

Yes, eating at home is the way to go. Chicken thighs are the best part of a chicken. Tofu, yuck, a lot of people are allergic to soy. Love cranberry sauce, love beets. I buy a rotisserie chicken, take the skin and bones and make broth, then add rice, veggies and the chicken and have chicken soup for a couple days. Delish.

Sounds yum. Do you deliver?
Chicken Soup for the Soul. Remember those books?

It’s 2 in the afternoon here and I’m ust thinking about breakfast. Poached eggs from mobile pasture-raised hens on avocado toast made with seed bread. Organic catsup on top.

Yum.
