Meatless Monday. A Healthy Breakfast.

It's 2015 and like many others with New Year's resolutions healthier eating is a goal this year.

This morning's repast was a cup of old fashioned oatmeal cooked down with a chopped Macintosh apple then sprinkled with two teaspoons each of raisins and brown sugar.

Along with a half cup of orange juice that's 341 calories (thank you SparkPeople for your free calorie counter).

YES. I count calories. I also look at the ratio of protein, carbohydrates and fat content of the food I eat. It's one of the ways to maintain a healthy BMI. Along with eating as close to the earth as possible. Fresh fruits and veggies whenever possible (in season or on sale). Frozen fruit and veggies are the next choice. Organic when it's in the budget. Home-canned as much as possible.

Are you eating healthier this year?
