-
Grilled marinated portabellas as burger alternatives. Great on a bun with all the traditional toppings!
-
Super Easy Baked Beans (also, a “from-scratch” recipe can be found in my ebook, Good and Easy Eats)
-
Barbeque Sauce
-
Grilled veggies– slice and marinate (or brush with oil) yellow squash, zucchini, onion, asparagus, eggplant, bell peppers, halved tomatoes, even pineapple! Then grill for a few minutes on each side. Easy and delicious!
-
Corn on the cob– in the husk. Wrap the whole unhusked cob in foil. Grill for at least 10 minutes. Allow to cool before unwrapping and unhusking. YUM!
-
Veggie Shish Kabob– described in my Everyday Wholesome Eating recipe book
-
Black Bean and Quinoa Salad (a great contribution to a potluck- everyone loves this one!)
-
Need a dessert contribution? How about Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler!
You are right on. No one wants to be preached at. I believe our food choices are a part of our testimony. Live it out and people will ask questions. Share info from a place of love. Healthy food can be very tasty. Our food (and lives) should be delicious enough to entice others. Eventually, they will want what we have.
Great post!
I think you said that more wonderfully than I did! Yes, our living-it-out should draw people more than anything we might say.
I have been doing the paleo diet for a few years, and I never preached it to anyone. When people ask how I lost the weight, I just tell them I am eating Paleo. The results speak for themselves, and people are interested because they see that it works.
