Hi! I'm Michael. I'm a *former* diabetic who had an A1C of 11.7. I eventually reversed my T2 diabetes through plant-based nutrition and walking 1 hour a day. Let's beat diabetes one bite at a time together! READ MORE

I'm starting a 30-day food reset along with Emily

I'm starting a 30-day food reset along with Emily over at @savvynomnom...just in time for soup weather! Tonight I made this roasted cauliflower soup from Emma's recipe at @elfoodielife (recipe link is in her bio...it was just featured on @thefeedfeed). I didn't deviate much from her recipe, except that I used a bag of frozen cauliflower from @wholefoods instead of fresh (so if you have a bag of frozen cauliflower and an onion you're good to go...it's a pantry meal!). I still roasted the #cauli for a 1/2 hour, I just defrosted them on the counter for an hour beforehand. BTW, don't skip the roasting part, it's what makes this dish rustic and toasty and rich. Comfort food at it's finest...I can't think of an easier way to eat an entire pound+ of healthy veggies in one sitting. Plus it was a great excuse to break out the camera and take some foodies photos (it's been a while). Warning though, it only makes like one big bowl, double the recipe if you're sharing. Thanks, Emma for the recipe! #foodreset #contrarycook #eatmoreplants #reversingdiabetes

Best part of the weekend…hitting the farmers market and noshing on this loaf of sprouted rye bread from @shewolfbakery for two days in a row. So good.💚 Rye bread in particular has a lower glycemic index which helps to keep the blood and insulin levels more balanced…it’s also rich in dietary fiber, rich in B vitamins, and is a source of manganese and magnesium. Now you know!

One benefit of waking up at 5:00 am…I got to experience this! The cats decided to chase each other around this morning at 5am…I woke up and wondered what all that red light was pouring into the living room. OMG, just beautiful watching the sun rise from the balcony. 🌞 The humidity broke last night so this morning was 67 degrees and cool. #sunrise #washingtonDC #DC #dclife #washmagphoto #igdc #thedistrict #dcstyle #acreativedc #travel #exposeddc #igersdc #fotodc #77H

My 1st time visiting DC’s Eastern Market (even though I only live 2 miles away!). I wish they had fewer meat cases and more plant-based eats…but I’m def not complaining about the vegan sausages I found. I also picked up 2 pounds of the most beautiful heirloom tomatoes!

Wherever you go, go with all your heart. —Confucius ❤️ I’m having a blast here visiting Santa Barbara. The weather is perfect and I’ve been wandering along these wonderful empty beaches re-reading Vivekananda’s treatise on Karma Yoga. So nice to go somewhere new with nothing to do but to walk on the sand and go with the flow.

“...the people who give you their food give you

“...the people who give you their food give you their heart." — Cesar Chavez

That’s so true, isn’t it? Have you ever noticed how much more wonderful food tastes and how much more nourishing it is to both your body and soul when a friend or someone you love shares their food with you? This 🍐 fed my heart.

BTW, pears contain particular flavonoids that can improve insulin sensitivity…increased intake of these flavonoids have been associated with decreased risk of type 2 diabetes. And the skin is even better for you, with nearly quadruple the phytonutrients, including beta-carotene, lutein, and zeaxanthin.

Who doesn’t love the smell of roasting garlic? Just cut 1/4 inch off the top and toss them in the oven….maybe with a drizzle of EVOO (I skipped the oil). 400°F for like 40 minutes. Mash with a fork and use as a spread or just squeeze them right out of the bulb and enjoy. This batch is for some roasted garlic cauliflower mashed faux potatoes I’m whipping up later. Whipping up. Get it? 😎 🌱
