Epsom Salt- And It's Many Uses

Do you keep epsom salt around the house?  Yes, me too!  But did you know just how many uses there are for this salt?  I typically use es when I'm aching, itchy, or swollen.  Check out the link below from Wellness Mama,  http://wellnessmama.com/ , and I think you'll be surprised.  Be sure to purchase es the next time you're out, if you haven't already done so.  It's fairly cheap, easy to find, and completely natural.  http://wellnessmama.com/8509/21-uses-for-epsom-salt/

Veggie Stir Fry

Colorful carrots, cabbage, brown rice, garlic cloves, scallions, and seasoning.   Toss ingredients in a skillet/wok with oil and lightly brown. So simple and meatless.

Vegetarian Chili

Another simple dish- meatless chili.  Your choice of beans (I used three kinds), scallions, green onions, cheese, and sour cream. 

Vegetarian Living

7 weeks, 2 days with no meat! It has been easier than I thought.  I'll start posting my favorite vegetarian dishes.  This is a super simple and fast creation.  Just throw whatever you like on your crust, and toss it in the oven for 20 minutes or so!  I must say that I feel noticeably different- increase in energy level and a cease in stomach issues which included bloating, discomfort, and constipation. Too much information, I know.  Just being open in case you too have been contemplating making the switch.  Please share your experiences and thoughts.
