Drastic changes in the weather, being closed up indoors, and generally feeling rundown can all lead to a serious case of the sniffles. If you run the other way when you see someone sneeze, or hide out when you hear a cough- it’s time to arm your body against cold and flu bugs from the inside out. Don’t give the flu a fighting chance by powering up with immune boosting foods. Even though it seems most people get sick during the fall and winter months, Mother Nature is (like always) one step ahead of us. Vitamin A: Studies have found that Vitamin A can reduce both the incidence and seriousness of infection by improving the body’s antibody response1. Vitamin C: Probably the most popular immune booster, vitamin C enhances immune cell activity and strengthens connective tissues which keep infections from spreading throughout the body2.

Feast on the Cheap avocado strawberry + goat cheese sandwich I am about to show you something that is way too much fun. And amazingly delicious! Maybe sandwiches aren’t what you call fun but this may change that. Remember last week when I was talking about how I only like avocado mixed in things or made into guacamole? After our Sunday bike ride, gardening, house cleaning, and still being wiped from Saturday’s hike, all of a sudden I needed food fast! I mashed up an avocado with salt, threw 2 slices of bread in the toaster, and slathered it on. I know a million people have made avocado toast before. But today we take avocado toast to the next level with a few simple variations. But then I’ll just move to the next berry that is. Two variations are hot + two are cold. I melted a rich + creamy goat’s milk mozzarella over top. Open-faced sandwiches used to be a childhood favorite. But you always have the option to smash it into a sandwich. Print this!

Soft Buttery Pretzels and Pretzel Bites I love soft pretzels, but I hate having to go to the mall to get a good one. I always wanted to make them at home, but assumed they were really hard work. I’d heard about how they need to be steamed or boiled before baking and that it’s a touchy process, so I just steered clear and hit up the pretzel joint whenever I was at the mall. A few years ago, though, the hubster decided to give them a shot. …and there was! All you need is yeast, salt, canola oil, all-purpose flour, sugar, and warm water (around 110 degrees). Once the dough is doubled in size, turn onto a clean, dry surface ( dust with flour, if necessary) and divide it into 12 equal pieces (about three and a half ounces each). Roll each piece into a rope, about 18 inches long. To shape the rope into a giant pretzel, lay it on the counter in a “U” shape. Wrap the right side of the “U” down, pulling the end towards the right and laying it over the bend in the dough. Now for the best part! Ingredients Recipe by Darla
