How it Started

Shelly Schultz Arizona Softball

I've always led an active lifestyle: motocross, bmx racing, softball, volleyball, hiking, running, camping, water skiing, and snowboarding.  So when my doctor at the Mayo Clinic said my cholesterol was high I was dumbfounded. "But I excercise at least 5 times a week! How could I have any medical issues at all!?!"... The next question from my doctor started me an a quest and that question was..... "Well what are you eating?" 

Shortly after that visit I was introduced to a documentary that would change the way I look at food for the rest of my life. Check out "Forkes over Knives" on Hulu. 


Since transforming my diet I've experienced a drastic increase in energy, I sleep better, and I'm able to concentrate longer. I've noticed my workouts are easier and getting ready for bathing suit season was a breeze. 

This year I began a journey to transform my life and live happily, and changing my eating habbits has been a huge factor in attaining my goal. I've eliminated animal products from my diet almost completely. moderation is key, so if I feel like a quesadilla on the weekend I go for it. My body and my mind are only as healthy as what I put into both of them. 

Reducing animal products isn't as difficult as it sounds. I wanted to share a few simple recipes I really enjoy and are easy to make.  HAPPY EATING!!

These recipes are simple and designed for people on the go. Who says you can’t make healthy food fast! I hope you enjoy the dishes and there will be more coming soon!
