  • Essentially, I was giving up. I believed that what was happening was what happened to most people: every few years add a new, chronic disease, and a handful of new medications, while giving lip-service to diet and exercise. It was the story of getting older in America.

Simple Stuffed Manicotti

I think that once you have made this dish–which seems complicated but really isn’t–it will become a favorite and you’ll see how easily it can be used for guests and pot-lucks with just a little dressing up. You can add fresh basil, chopped mushrooms, broccoli, cubbed butternut squash, or any other ideas you have.

The Corinne Nijjer Podcast

Just in case there are some who are not already following The Corinne Nijjer Podcast, you should have a listen. Corinne released an interview with me on her show this morning, and I think it turned out pretty darn well. You can listen on iTunes, on Spotify, or directly from her website. I hope you like it! I feel famous!

Healthful Living Coaching

For most of his life, Joseph had the goal of being healthy; of finding a way to be thin and physically fit… and this goal was part of the problem that kept him morbidly obese and made him sicker. Even as an expert Registered Nurse, nurse educator, and nurse scholar, Joseph continued to gain weight and develop chronic diseases. After he took up a whole-foods, plant-based lifestyle, Joseph began to realize that it wasn’t an arbitrary end point like become healthy or lose 150 pounds that would help him to become the person he wished to be. It was the process; a Healthful Living Practice that he uses every day, from moment-to-moment. Once he understood that living healthfully was a better goal than reaching a particular weight, fitting into some size of jeans, or being able to run a marathon, everything changed. Joseph has lost over 200 pounds, completely reversed type 2 diabetes, eliminated a series of life-threatening infections, and recently completed the Leadville Trail Heavy Half, a 15.5-mile trail race on one of the toughest courses in the world. Today, Joseph continues to make progress toward the person he wants to be, through his own Healthful Living Practice.

Joseph’s Very Famous Rapid-Fire Hummus

Hummus makes a handy-dandy topper for a plant-based bowl. It makes a great salad dressing. It’s pretty darn swell on a potato, whole-grain toast or brown rice crackers, carrot & celery sticks, or just out of the blender all on its own. Hummus is…

Unbelievable Sweet Potato Cornbread

“Honey, I invited Lucas and Scott over for dinner tonight,” began the evening’s drama. We were waiting for the service person to come fix the air conditioner on the hottest day we have seen in three years, it was 6:30 p.m., and I was…
