- Why are there so few places to get a healthy inexpensive plant-based meal near Princeton? I stumbled upon a new restaurant in Bordentown called Properly Fueled. It's beautiful inside, rustic and hipster feel. They offer high vibrational foods - tons of whole food vegan options! Check it out if you're nearby: https://www.properlyfueled.com/
- After watching Dr. Greger's latest video series on arsenic in foods, I'm very concerned about consuming rice. Apparently, nearby Blue Moon Acres farms grow their own and their soil is almost completely free of arsenic. https://nutritionfacts.org/video/which-brands-and-sources-of-rice-have-the-least-arsenic/

15-Minute Quinoa-Millet Mushroom Bowl made with @shibumifarm 's incredible Lion's Mane shrooms, @honeybrookorganicfarm 's supersweet corn, other local assorted greens, and our homemade kitchen sprouts. I steam sauteed everything together and mixed with a sauce made from pureed roasted plantains, cashews, and garlic. I'm really loving the combination of quinoa and millet, and they cook so quickly in the InstantPot. #buddhabowls #yogafood #wfpb #amazingmushrooms #lionsmane #wholegrains #wholefoods #plantbased #localfood #instantpot
