Mission accomplished: my 14 year old little sister Karrie is OFFICALLY on board with the SuperFood eating plan! Last week, James cooked “Super Suey: our new most delicious super food recipe to date! My sister reluctantly tried the meal and said: “WOW! This is delicious!”
The next day, she planned to leave for the entire day and she asked me: “hey sis, will you pack me snacks, lunch, and dinner?” Of course, I said: “CHA!!”
I packed her the following lunch:
9 o’clock snack: plum
Lunch: peanut butter & blueberry jelly sandwich on 100% whole grain bread & 1 apple
3 o’clock snack: 1 cup of carrots with home-made guacamole
Dinner: 1 serving of Super Suey & 1.5 cups steamed broccoli
Drink: water
I showed her the lunch and explained the times she should eat each food. I explained that you need to feed your body small meals throughout the day to maintain your blood sugar and energy. Our bodies are most efficient when we provide them a steady supply of super nutrients!
At the end of the day, she stated that she ate her foods as instructed; she loved all of the food with the exception of the guacamole, she said: “that was WAY too spicy for carrots, Kelley!”
Why do I care so much that my 14 year old sister eats super foods? Because I love her, and when you love someone you want the very best for them.
