Wait a second. Back up. You eat junk? 😕
Junk food is like having sex with a pretty prostitute. Makes you feel really good while you're doing it and satisfied right after. But the next day you feel bad and start to worry about the physical repercussions. 😕

Here's the recipe for one of my favorites dishes of late. This one is really tasty and chock full of both fiber and super nutrition. It's so good it's addictive!
Broccoli Slaw
1 Pkg Broccoli Slaw (I’ve been using Mann’s Broccoli Cole Slaw – Hearts of Broccoli, Carrots and Red Cabbage)
½ Cup Sunflower Seeds (unsalted, raw)
½ Cup Almonds, Slivered (unsalted, raw)
1 Pkg crispy Chow Mein or Rice Noodles
Green Onions (optional, to taste)
Mix the above ingredients in a bowl.
Mix ¼ Cup Bragg’s Apple Cider Vinegar, 3 Tablespoons Raw Honey, ½ Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
Pour over Slaw and toss. Serve and enjoy.

with a prostitute. A prostitute is a human (most often) and it's only natural
having sex with another human, but eating junk?.. 😲

I want all my food fried in grease with lots of salt. Lots of sugar for dessert and lots of snack food for those in between moments. Wife won’t let me though and I get tired of eating healthy all the time. Yeah, I know apples are good for you but I WANT COOKIES!!!

Also, isn't 3 tbsp of honey and half a cup of olive oil a bit much for one salad? 😕
