Have you noticed that something has changed in the air? Spring is finally here and with it comes the promise of sunshine and warmer days. I also noticed a change in my appetite and food choices. Hearty winter dishes have been replaced by lighter meals, with lots of green vegetables and fresh herbs.
I am always amazed by the bounty and abundance of vegetables that we can actually eat on the autoimmune protocol. Such a variety ensures that we never get bored! I don’t know that I am eating #morevegetablesthanavegetarian, but I am definitely looking forward to my daily dose of colorful and nutritious fruits and veggies!
