This is really too good to be a detox salad but it This is really too good to be a detox salad but it is a bit hard core. The cruciferous veges - shredded broccoli and cauliflower- are among the worlds healthiest foods for their vitamins, minerals  and phytonutrients. Then I added shredded carrots and jicama for sweetness, sunflower seeds, dried zante currents, unsweetened bing cherries (dried), lemon juice and chopped parsley (so beneficial) Braggs Sea Kelp seasoning and salt for good measure. 😃😃

So fresh and light and -100% vegan 🌱.. good for you and good for the planet.. 

This amazing recipe can be found #ohsheglows

Walking through La Rioja along The Camino de Santi Walking through La Rioja along The Camino de Santiago or the way of Saint James. 

The most popular route I of this pilgrimage (the Camino Frances) starts in France at the foot of the Pyrenees and stretches across Spain nearly 500 miles. The route has a history that dates back to year 814, so even if you aren’t religious, you will have a spiritual experience. It’s just embedded in the path. 

It has now become a popular and social destination as well as a UNESCO world heritage site that attracts people/pilgrims from all over the world. 

Originally, pilgrims walked  to reduce the punishment of their sins but today people walk for a variety of reasons. For me, it’s as simple as I love to walk and enjoy the rhythm of walking daily towards a new destination. 

If you love to walk or want an amazing experience this is a great trip to consider.
