cholesterol lowering diet 4
I woke up today to hear the birds chirping and see the sun shining in my windows. This is going to be a great day. I feel great. I am beginning to wake up more refreshed. I am not so tired. So, I will make my smoothie and go to church. Now, on with cholesterol lowering diet 4.
maple syrup in my breakfast
Pure maple syrup is the most tasty sweetner I know. It is so good for you. I always buy grade B, but grade A is also good to use.

breakfast with judith
day 4
fruit and veggie smoothie
This smoothie contains one banana, one whole orange, one whole apple, a handful spinach, 1/2 cup frozen strawberries and1/2 cup frozen grapes (any type). I added a teaspoon and a half of maple syrup and 1 T of freshly ground flax seeds. Please add 1 T chia seeds. I ran out and so did my local health food store so this smoothie is without chia. Blend it and enjoy.
Add more of the ingredients you like, and less of ones you don't like. Just be sure to taste fruits and vegetables before you blend to make sure they are sweet enough.
Relaxing by the bookshelf with my breakfast and a good book.

lunch with judith
day 4
steamed veggie sandwich
Lunch is lovely steamed veggie sandwich. I have broccoli, cauliflower and carrots lightly steamed. Drain them on a paper towel for a few minutes so they don't make your sandwich soggy. Spread a little coconut oil on the bread, add some tomatoes and onions or cucumbers if you like. Put on top bread and voila, a veggie coconut sandwich. Yummy.

dinner with judith
day 4
chicken dinner salad
Tonight I took half a bag of field green salad mixture and added cucumbers, tomatoes and sweet onions. I had some baked chicken which I cut in cubes and mixed in. For dressing, we used olive oil and balsamic vinegar. It is fast and easy. The whole family enjoyed this. They had linguine and shrimp with theirs, but there was plenty of chicken in the salad for me to be satisfied.

Using Maple syrup
There are so many ways to use maple syrup.
- Topping for ice cream
- flavoring for milk
- Replace sugar in recipes
Use 1/3 less maple syrup than sugar called for in recipe. Reduce liquid in recipe by 2 tablespoons for every 1/2 c of maple syrup used.
- on pancakes, waffles, toast
- topping for rice with cream and butter added
- topping for oatmeal as for rice but sprinkle on some walnuts
Use sprouted grain bread and small amount of maple syrup for a snack on cholesterol free diet.
Don't eat ice cream on cholesterol free diet, but your family might like it. When my family eats ice cream or pie or cake, I go read a book. sighhh.
For purpose of lowering cholesterol, I use small amounts of maple syrup to sweeten smoothies.
I also use it in a lemon drink with cayenne pepper similar to the "Master Cleanse recipe"
