Today was my 58th Birthday, and this is what I had for dinner. Looks delicious and I can vouch for it that it sure was!
Dr. Tae Yun Kim has encouraged all of us Jung Suwon warriors to focus on our health this year, and that of course starts with a healthy diet.
This above warrior feast has all the good stuff in it – a mixture of veggies: brussels sprouts, broccoli, onions, garlic, red bell peppers, yellow bell peppers and mushrooms. Of course you can use a medley of whatever you have on hand, or whatever you like.
I started by sauteing the tofu with the onions and garlic first, added some gluten-free soy sauce, and added the rest of the veggies. I added a little water too, and covered and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, then topped it with 2 very fresh eggs and covered until the eggs were done – in this case done meant still a little runny inside.
If you either can’t have tofu or simply don’t like it, you could easily substitute boneless chicken for it, just make sure you cook it all the way through. Or, to change it all up, you could use any meat you have left over from another meal.
Dr. Tae Yun Kim has been encouraging my self-imposed weight loss – I set a new Year goal to get back down to 130 lbs, my ideal weight – and I enjoyed this meal without rice – although it would have been superb with some brown rice, or even noodles, for sure.
Go ahead and try it out – let me know if you like it!
I’ll go for the chicken version but, otherwise, I’m in! I think it can be healthy to focus on getting healthy and feeling great vs being set on a particular weight. Sometimes we find our ideal weight is no longer ideal for us. I’m off dairy again and limiting the sugar. (My body started screaming “No!” to me and I’m listening now.) I know that will yield results and I look forward to feeling better each day.
Spread the birthday goodness out as long as you can, Angela! xo,
Shirley
Thanks for your comments Shirley! I am with you on the weight thing….Since I started eating a lot healthier and moving more, I feel better, (and I think look better too), clothes fit better, and the muffing top is disappearing, but the weight, well it does have a mind of its own, doesn’t it? So yeah, I’ll keep with the eating healthy program, and not stress out about the actual weight..thanks for the love, Shirley! 🙂
