Vital Choice Featured In Everyday With Rachael Ray Magazine
Posted by: | CommentsIf you have been to my website or get my newsletters, I have been telling ya’ll about Vital Choice. Guess what? They are featured in the May issue of Everyday With Rachael Ray Magazine on page 94. Even though there are a few misquotes, Vital Choice is getting great exposure. Good for them. People need to know about the top of the line products they offer. Vital Choice is an online retailer specializing in wild sustainably harvested seafood and many of the other super foods I love and recommend.
You haven’t tasted good salmon until you have tried the Wild Salmon from Vital Choice. It really does taste like it was just caught by Randy Harnell, fisherman and president of the company. Ladies and men, he knows salmon!
Not only, can you get fantastic seafood, but they have organic EVOO, Nuts, Berries, Teas and of course, CHOCOLATE. You can do all your shopping right here without having to leave your home. How good is that? This is what I call GOOD stuff.
Don’t take my word for it or Rachael Ray. Click the Vital Choice image below and see what Randy has to say and try it out yourself. You will thank me later.
P.S. I LUV the salmon sausage. Who would’ve ever thought of that? Somebody up there in Washington State must be from the SOUTH. I need to check this out.
Livin’, Luvin’ and Feelin’ GOOD!

The Hormone Lady Meets Paula Deen
Posted by: | CommentsGot your attention didn’t it? Unfortunately, I haven’t gotten to meet Paula in person but I watch Paula Deen’s Home Cooking about everyday while I am on my elliptical burning off the pounds I gain just watching those mouth watering, lip smacking dishes being prepared with an extra slab of butter. It reminds me of all the good cooking I grew up with that contributed to my nickname, Fatnin’.
Every Paula Deen recipe I have made has gotten rave reviews. Just recently I made her Spinach Bacon Quiche for a special birthday breakfast for 3 of our Club HORMONZTM members. They said it was the best quiche they ever had and wanted the recipe. Because they loved it so much I figured you would, too.
If you know Paula’s cooking, you are probably wondering how in the world can you be promoting food that is so unhealthy. My philosophy on food is: eat healthy the majority of the time and when you don’t eat small portions. Plus, you can always adjust the recipe to make it healthier.
Normally, I would have made healthier substitutions but hey it was a celebration!
I did change a few things and put my little spin on this recipe. I added the nutmeg and substituted ½ cup of smoked gouda cheese instead of 11/2 cups of Swiss cheese. In other words, I made it more fattening. Here’s my version.
Spinach Bacon Quiche
Ingredients
6 large eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
Salt and pepper
Dash of nutmeg
2 cups chopped fresh baby spinach, packed
1 pound bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
½ cup Smoked Gouda cheese
1 (9-inch) refrigerated pie crust, fitted to a 9-inch glass pie plate
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Combine the eggs, cream, salt, pepper and nutmeg in a food processor or blender. Layer the spinach, bacon, and cheese in the bottom of the pie crust, then pour the egg mixture on top. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes until the egg mixture is set. Cut into 8 wedges.
Healthier Suggestions:
Substitute skim or lower fat milk for the heavy cream
use turkey bacon, salmon, or no meat at all
Reduced fat cheese
Eliminate the crust
It’s Up To YOU. Enjoy! Let me know what you think.
