Fall Roasted Veggies

3 yams

3 red potatoes
 
1 red onion

2 cloves of garlic

2 tablespoons of coconut oil, butter, or lard

1 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt

1/2 teaspoon of turmeric

1 teaspoon of cinnamon


Preheat for 425 degrees.

Chop all vegetables into sizable chunks.

Mince garlic.

Combine with remaining ingredients.

Bake for 50 minutes.

Your house will smell wonderful!! This dish is a regular on our fall/winter dinner table and it has many variations.




Breakfast Smoothie

1 cup of almond milk

1/2 cup of full-fat coconut milk

2-3 cups of spinach

1 banana

1 tsp of real vanilla

1 cup of frozen blueberries


Blend spinach and milks until smooth. Add banana and vanilla. I add the frozen blueberries last for a frozen smoothie texture. Be careful not to over-blend, especially if you have a high-powered blender like a Vitamix or Blendtech.
