My husband and I are trying to cook more often at home to save money and stay healthy. We eat organic and whole foods as much as possible. It is a lot of work when we try to cook everything from scratch. But we are learning easy and cheap cooking right now.
We made an oatmeal breakfast yesterday. It was totally gluten free and 99% organic. I am planning to write how to make mashed potato and oatmeal in separate entries.
We made:
- Oatmeal with an apple banana, strawberry jam and celtic sea salt
- Mashed purple potato and sweet potato with virgin coconut oil (already made the day before)
- Sliced orange and tomato
- A basted egg with avocado oil
It took about 30 minutes.
It was all organic except for celtic sea salt and avocado oil. The apple banana, purple potato, and eggs were from farmers markets on Oahu.
It was tasty and filling! It was my first time eating sweet oatmeal. In Japan (where I grew up), oatmeal is considered to be baby food, and adults do not really have a chance to eat it. I was surprised when I first found out that people in the US put milk, fruit, and honey in it! But I love sweet oatmeal now;)
What do you normally put in your oatmeal?
Thank you for visiting my blog;) Have a nice day!

Noni Fruit and Noni Juice
Hey guys! How are you doing?
Have you heard of noni juice before?
Noni juice is extract from noni fruit which normally takes 2 months or so to get fermented under the sun. We first saw noni fruit at a farmers market and had a sample of the fruit. It was not a form of juice, but actual fruit. It was stinky, like blue cheese. Kind of disgusting, isn't it? But when the woman at the vendor started explaining about all the health benefits that noni has, I became really interested. I have heard of the name before, but I didn't know what it was. Now that I know, I started looking for noni at markets.
And here it is. The vendor "Samsha" has noni juice:
Noni juice infused with cocoa and stevia, $17 for a month supply.
My husband and I have been taking 1oz of noni juice every morning. There seem to be no drastic effects yet though. But keep drinking it. It is supposed to lower blood pressure, burn fat, and control cholesterol level. Also good for digestion and skin.
I actually got noni fruit for free at a market and am making noni juice on my own. I don't know how it is going to turn out, but I will let you know later;)
