I am always telling my clients to eat vegetables. I recommend your diet be 70%
non- starchy vegetables everyday. If you make that one simple change, you will be amazed at how much better you feel. Here is a recipe for broccoli which is in the farmers market this week. You should be able to make it in 10 minutes. I hope you enjoy it!
