I won the "Against the Grain" e-book in an awesome blog giveaway and it was accompanied by Kate's other three e-books. I can't wait to try out some of her amazing and healthy recipes so I can review them and her e-books for you all! For now, if you have interest in eating healthy, losing weight, and learning about these subjects, I encourage you to check out her amazing blog full of recipes, resources, and knowledge on these subjects!

So perhaps you have been curious about what I serve for snacks, especially if you too have young children. As I am beginning a trend toward more organic veggies and fruit (top 12 for now), high quality coconut oil, and good quality eggs (milk and meat eventually), I am cutting out more and more processed foods including gluten free pre-made snacks, candy, juice, and pop. We are cutting back but not eliminating our pop and candy consumption for now (the kids don't have any pop and very little candy but we had way too much candy around during Christmas and I want it out of the house except on rare occasions and in small quantities), and we don't drink juice at all. I am serving mainly fruit and cheese for snacks. I am searching for more variety to serve for snacks and hopefully I can share more soon!
