Recently, I have been trying to eat more of a whole foods diet. That is, one not loaded with processed food of questionable origins and long trails to follow from farm to plate. Eating a diet based on whole foods is often more nutritious and more sustainable than eating processed foods (ex. bread, granola bars, chips, cookies, etc.) off of grocery store shelves. Of course, it is far easier to incorporate whole foods into your diet if you have access to fresh (and preferably local) produce. It should be noted that I don’t fully subscribe to, or wish to advise you to subscribe to, any particular diet; dietary needs are unique to every individual, and this fact cannot be emphasized enough. That being said, many diets, like the raw foods diet, whole foods diet, and ketogenic diet, offer good practices that can be cherry picked and modified to suit our needs.
In an effort to eat more locally and healthily, I recently tried my hand at sweet potato toast...and it was perhaps even more satisfying than regular toast! Filling, fun to make, and pretty to look at, sweet potato toast is a new favorite. Using locally grown sweet potatoes, nut butter, a banana, and a variety of toppings, I arrived at a unique and delicious breakfast; follow the recipe below to try it out for yourself! Ingredients:
