Need a quick place in American Fork for nutritarian or vegan meal… or in any area dominated by fast food? Paradise Bakery’s Mixed Greens salad is easily customized. First, start with large size, add sunflower seeds and edamame for protein. Have it tossed with red wine vinegar and grab extra lemon slices near drinks for extra pop of flavor. Not a bad alternative… and you’ll fill your stomach with low cal, high nutrient lunch. Much better for the body and mind than most places in the area. Great spot for business lunch, family gatherings and they offer free wifi.

Recipe: Seasoned Black Beans
Seasoned Black Beans… a can of cooked beans kicked up a couple notches! If you’re staying in rental house, or back at home, beans are great way to eat healthy and get enough protein for playing and working. I like beans with a little extra somethin’, so try this recipe:
In a medium size pot on medium high heat, water saute for about 3 minutes 1/2 white onion and 2 clove garlic, both diced
Turn heat to medium low and add to pot:
1-20oz can black beans with water from can
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried cumin seeds
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Simmer for 15 minutes. Enjoy as you would any beans! (I ate mine with fresh tomato and cilantro and chips)
