\"Millet<\/p>\n

When a book\u2019s manifesto begins like this, you almost can\u2019t help but love the author:<\/span><\/p>\n

There is no ideal diet. <\/span>
\n<\/span>I believe you can benefit from a cleaner, greener diet. But that doesn\u2019t mean you need to eat exactly what I eat. While there are some precepts for a clean, toxin-free eating…there are many ways to eat healthy. <\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m not into labels. This isn\u2019t about being a vegan, vegetarian, or flexitarian. If you want to come up with a name for what this is, knock yourself out, but the most important thing is to eat foods that make your body feel good. <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That is from my friend, Amie Valpone\u2019s, new book, Eating Clean: The 21-Day Plan to Detox, Fight Inflammation, and Reset Your Body<\/a>,<\/span>\u00a0and it perfectly expresses who Amie is: compassionate,\u00a0gentle, and genuine. She wants the best for you and me. Eating Clean<\/em>\u00a0is both cookbook and eating clean guide. In the first half, Amie dives into clean living: what ingredients might be causing you unwanted symptoms, why gluten, caffeine, dairy, and soy are problematic for many people, which household and beauty products might be negatively impacting the way you feel, and more. She shows you, in as loving a way as anyone can, how to clean up your diet and lifestyle and rid both of toxins.\u00a0Her focus is on how much your health can improve once you get\u00a0your body working <\/span>for you<\/span><\/i>, not against you.\u00a0<\/span>The second half of the book is filled with over 200 delicious and detox-approved vegetarian and vegan recipes–free of gluten, dairy, soy, peanuts, eggs, corn, eggplant, white flour, refined sugar, and any ingredients that come from a can.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Millet<\/p>\n

Amie believes in eating clean because she spent almost 10 years struggling with chronic illness. Her journey to just to feel well in the most basic sense has involved about a million tears, a near-death bed experience, dozens of specialists, false diagnoses, endless frustration, and years spent not knowing what exactly was wrong or how to treat any of her pain.<\/p>\n

The only way she began to heal was when she focused on cleaning up her food and the environment around her–from her water to the cleaning products she used to her personal care and beauty products (and more).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Reading Amie\u2019s long journey to slowly heal herself inspires me and reminds me just how much the food I eat impacts the way I feel. There comes a point for all of us when we recognize that the old adage, \u201cIt\u2019s what on the inside that counts\u201d applies to our health, too. Food can heal us and it can harm us, and either way, we\u2019re responsible for our choices.<\/p>\n

\"Millet<\/p>\n

These Millet and Veggie Breakfast Tacos are straight from Amie’s\u00a0book! They’re from\u00a0the breakfast chapter, but I’d eat them\u00a0anytime. The ingredients are pure, simple, and just about perfect when all together–a reminder that eating clean doesn\u2019t have to be boring. In fact, it\u2019s so vibrant, so fresh, and when the ingredients aren\u2019t overpowered by a million layers of other things (like cheese, which I\u2019m totally guilty of smothering everything in)–you can really taste them, and that\u2019s pretty lovely. The millet is hearty and kind of grounding if you know what I mean. It\u2019s chewy, warm, and satisfying because it gets a little sticky, like rice. The bell pepper is always so nicely sweet, and especially perfect with meaty slices of portobello mushroom. A little bit of flavor with cumin, chili powder, and fresh cilantro, and that\u2019s all you need!<\/span><\/p>\n

Amie\u2019s book is such a charmer, full of incredible insight, and just gorgeous to look at. Go pick it up in stores today or order online here:<\/span><\/p>\n
