We had a great show today and for anyone who missed it or has forgotten the top 8 list already here is a brief recap!
Tiffany Banow, a registered dietitian and nutritionist came and shared with us what she thought every kitchen should be stocked with. Here is the top 8 in no consectiative order:
8. Black Beans
> can be added in many dishes, or substitute meat
> great source of fibre
7. Convenience Dairy
>Mini Yogurt (low fat for adults and regular for children)
> Cheese Strings (low fat or part skimmed)
6. Canned Fish
>ie. Tuna or Salmon
5. High Fibre Cereals
>should contain 3-4g of fibre per serving
>less than 10g of sugar
>mix in all bran buds for a fibre boost
>watch out for sodium!
4.Frozen Fruit
>power fruit "Blueberries"
3. Milled Flaxseed
>mix in anything
>be sure to get the milled because it is broken down to give us the benefit of the oils, whole flax does not give us much benefit
2. Barley
1. Fresh Produce
>Wash and ready to go!
There you have it! Hope this leaves you inspired! If anyone is interested in further education feel free to contact Tiffany Banow.

As a last note I came upon this quote at my chiropractors office this afternoon and I thought it was fitting with our morning!
"Strength is the capacity to break a chocolate bar into four pieces with your bare hands- and then eat just one of the pieces."
