Eating lots of fruits and vegetables is a way of life with us, but the Publix bakery calls out to us....too much.
I am glad you reposted the elements of this diet.

You are now an adopted Italiano Grecian French Turkish citizen of the world and enjoying your food, which is the most important thing, in the company of your loving family members in TV. Did you enjoy the spinach?
I hate to say this, but all the vegans and vegetarians think they are onto something "new" when in reality the people of ages ago did NOT consume so much meat at all...........beans, lentils, legumes in general, were very much consumed. My Ukrainian mom made lima bean soup which I wish I could find a recipe for......but all it was was lima beans, celery, some type of crushed tomatoes.........? My Polish mom in law made beet soup.....my Ukrainian grandmother made cabbage soup and potato soup. They ate veggies before they were even popular..........and my Italians made minestroni soup with all the veggies.........
I use strictly olive oil. My dad used to buy it in the large gallon size.
We don't use that much of it at all, so I buy a medium sized bottle.
