On January 18th 1958 the world changed forever a man that we have grown to No One Love known as healthy dad my father was Born hello if you’re new here hey I’m healthy Emmy I’m nutritionist and the creator of the slimon starch program if you are interested in joining the slimon starch program and being coached by me then click the link in the down bar today’s video is going to be what I am
Eating today as well as what my family is eating as we go over to my parents house for lunch to celebrate my dad’s birthday 66 years young he is turning and the coolest part is that this is the healthiest I’ve ever seen my dad in my entire life what I have witnessed is
That as we get older our health goes one way or it goes another way nobody stays the same you either actively pursue better health or you let your body deteriorate and my dad he started this Lon starch program when he was 58 he started the slon starch program
He’s 66 now that’s crazy maybe he was 59 in any event his health has steadily improved he went from being obese to now he’s in a healthy weight range it’s just tremendous and today we are celebrating that by having an SOS friendly lunch he probably will have some potato chips
It’s his birthday he can have some potato chips when it’s your birthday but I’ll bring you along first and foremost first thing that enters my body every day and if we want to talk about swaps this is where you talk about swaps so my vitamin B12 supplement let’s do a little
Side by side comparison of What vitamin B12 looks like if you are not having my supplement normally supplements are disgusting especially B12 they usually have sugar and oil and animal products and when my clients my beloved clients who I treat like family were wondering what they should be using for B12 I
Couldn’t find find it in my heart to recommend any of the ones I was Finding they were disgusting so I had to make my own vitamin B12 supplement which I was so happy to do but this is always the first thing that goes into my body on a
Daily basis to make sure that I’m getting a critical vitamin vitamin B12 to make sure I have enough energy and to prevent things like anemia fatigue memory loss there are a lot of neurological implications of not getting enough vitamin B12 so this is always the
First thing that goes into my body and I will not take any of the other gross ones the link for this is in the down bar you can subscribe and save so that it’s delivered to your door every month you don’t have to worry about it when I
Was in college I studied abroad in London and aside from the fact that I made it my entire personality for a few years I also learned that my UK Honeys have beans on toast anybody who’s from the UK drop a comment let me know can we switch places we could do a little
Holiday situation and although I cannot provide Jude Law as who you’d be living with I can provide a really really great set of cats all of this to say my boyfriend and I were down on Long Island recently visiting his parents and on the way home his mom said I don’t have use
For these do you and I said is the pope Catholic you give me a can of beans I’m going to find some use for it and while under normal circumstances this would go into my chili recipe I thought it would be fun for a video to give you an
Alternative breakfast recipe for anybody that’s in your world that you’re trying to get to eat healthier and might have a little bit of a fixation on protein this is a great breakfast for them I’ve got my blue light glasses on so you know I mean business because throughout this
Video what I’m going to be doing is talking about healthy swaps that you can use for your family now before I do that the ultimate healthy swap is my new cookbook the healthy fames cookbook is live this cookbook is kill alert it is perfect if you have family members that
You are trying to get to eat more nutritious meals and the way that I design The cookbook is so that you can batch cook a big recipe of one of the casseroles or one of the breakfast recipes or a big side dish they are perfect for sharing amongst others these
Are crowd Pleasers they’re ones that I’ve made for other people before and they’ve asked me for the recipe and the people that are asking me for the recipe are not your typical plant eaters so to say so if these people enjoy these recipes they are omnivore approved the
Whole book is plant-based oilfree Whole Food based we’ve got meatballs we’ve got Sloppy Joe’s we’ve got Mac and chili we’ve got baked ZD casseroles we’ve got meatloaves we’ve got breakfast recipes we got protein pancakes french toast casserole it is abundant this cookbook and your family is going to to love it
Now let’s do some makeshift beans on toast because traditionally you don’t use kidney beans for baked beans traditionally you’ll use Great Northern beans but uh some call me a rebel under normal circumstances I would highly encourage that you rinse these beans if you have gastric distress then you definitely
Want to rinse the beans before putting them on the skillet here but because I want this to be nice and creamy I’m actually going to use the aqua Faba to help cook it now I’m adding in this Primal kitchen ketchup this ketchup is unbelievable the ingredients are just tomato concentrate balsamic vinegar some
Salt onion powder garlic and spices and it tastes like traditional ketchup it’s unbelievable so I just eyeballed it but I’d say it’s maybe A4 of a cup some balsamic vinegar maybe a teaspoon or so for sweetener I’ll use a little bit of maple syrup some some garlic powder I
Love these containers they are linked on my Amazon storefront onion powder same amount little bit of black pepper totally optional some red pepper flakes if you like a little kick I’m going to bring this to a simmer and let it cook for about 20 minutes and a lot of this liquid will
Cook off for bread love love love this bread nooba Brook Bakery we get it at Whole Foods this is local to the Boston area unfortunately but the great news is that really great breads are easy to find I actually have a whole YouTube video where I talk about this this is
What the thumbnail looks like I’ll link up below so you can watch that video after this one to learn how to pick out the healthiest bread so I’m going to pop this in the toaster so here is my perfectly toasted bread not to brag oh my goodness these smell so
Good also going to add a little bit of sliced avocado on top and I’m put a little Greenery on top as well if I had some micro greens that would look nice but I don’t so just a little something what makes food look attractive is height so you want to
Build it up as much as possible so just a little Greenery on the top there you could also do a sprinkling of nutritional yeast but how beautiful is that so back to the swaps so when it comes to bread traditionally what I am seeing is individuals will choose breads
Without looking at the ingredients list and the ingredients list is fairly simple for bread it should be flour water yeast and salt when you buy it fresh from the bakery or when you make your own the problem is that we’re buying breads that are on the shelves
Within the center of the grocery store we want to be buying the bread that’s on the perimeter of the grocery store or that you are getting from the bakery or Ezekiel Bread which is in the freezer because on the perimeter from the bakery section of the grocery store that’s
Baked fresh that’s not not going to have the added oils and it’s not going to have all the preservatives so either go to your grocery store bakery and get a fresh baguette there some french bread or some sourdough that doesn’t have any oil added or any animal products or go
To a local bakery and they should have a French baguette or a sourdough or a rye or a whole wheat that just has flour water yeast and salt for the baked beans now this is going to be a big difference because traditionally what we see with baked beans that we’re getting from the
Grocery store is that they have added sugar oil and animal products you could eat these but you’re getting along with it a lot of junk that’s going to make weight release really difficult and weight maintenance really difficult and is going to make maintaining great health difficult you saw how easy it was
To throw together those baked beans easy peasy and guess what I wasn’t even following a recipe I was just taking what I had around the house so while you could go for convenience in the short term term and by those baked beans that have all the gunk added to them you’re
Inconveniencing yourself in the long term because of the health implications that come from repeated use of substances that aren’t great for us Amal products oil refined white sugar so make your own so that yeah it might take a few more minutes in the current moment but you are saving yourself in the long
Term from health insurance premiums from buying new clothes because your current clothes don’t fit anymore the time that it takes to feel unwell not feeling well sucks up a lot of your time and makes you unproductive so take a little extra time to make the swap here I’m going to
Touch up my makeup just a little bit because we are headed over to healthy parents for yanch as we call it if you saw the last Vlog you saw I was on the phone with my dad whilst deciding what it was that we were going to have for
Healthy dad’s lunch meal and you know traditionally these are an opportunity an opportunity to really indulge and you know make cakes and drink and and all that fun stuff and if you want to do that absolutely go for it something that we do in the slimon starch program is we form what’s called
Your signature system which is what allows you to have those indulgences if you want to on your birthday but what I also want to recognize is that the the reason why my dad is ringing in the 66th year in such tremendous Health the healthiest I’ve ever seen him is not
Because of beer cookie Cookies Cakes and Pastries it’s because of the SOS program so what better way to start off this next year than with something from the healthy dad cookbook so we’re going to be having his veggie wraps from the healthy dad cookbook which is one of my
Boyfriend’s favorites so he is very much excited for this and also what I’m going to be doing to make it special is I’m actually making a little trivia quiz about my dad I well I made it already I have to go print it before we leave I
Was cracking up making this quiz I’ll share with you some of the questions dad currently refers to his car as chick magnet and just so you know it is not the chick magnet no no no no no it’s just chick magnet what is dad’s favorite holiday a Memorial Day B Columbus Day
Than Thanksgiving National Talk Like a Pirate Day one of these things is not like the other and it’s the same thing that is the correct answer so I was crying laughing making those would I rather us eat a bunch of cake and feel sick afterward or would I
Rather engage in this and these are not mutually exclusive by the way but I just want to say where does my energy go my energy instead of being put into making a cake is going to be put into making a fun trivia game for us and and I’m going
To pick up a lottery ticket on the way there so that whoever wins can win a little scratch ticket bada bing bada bang let’s let’s get out of here oh dad you got the you got the Pea you’re so good I’m not good on the best so for
Healthy dad’s birthday we are doing wraps everything is set up and I’m so impressed he remembered that I told him a while back that this was great pea because it doesn’t have any oil at to it fantastic ingredients so we have this George’s Bakery pea there’s also these
Tortillas which I would not recommend for slimon starch but for other individuals we have corn tortillas plates the forks and knives lettuce bean sprouts roasted red peppers pickles condiments mustard I think Dad this is your dressing right that’s in the from The cookbook from the healthy dad
Cookbook sweet and sour sauce would not recommend for slimon starch hot sauce which is okay for slimon starch and then there’s leftover Mexi from last night and then what’s going in the wraps dad well we have red onions and sweet onions they’re in there trust me uh we have
Sliced mushrooms we have water chestnuts and those were all just um water sauté there’s no there’s no oil and just I just dowed them or garnished them with uh garlic powder really if you had smell of f it would really smell good and then we have spicy rice uh that’s made with
Just brown rice and chipotle powder and the tofu which will be garnished with ginger has 2 minutes left so it’s just about time to rock and roll here’s my wrap look how beautiful she is Dad will you show us what you’ve made well the bad news and I did put potato chips on
There but it’s your birthday I made wrap with the tofu which is garnished with ginger the spicy rice onions mushrooms water chestnuts and Sprouts uh roasted red peppers and lettuce thanks garnished with the homemade uh sauce the uh dressing that’s in the cookbook healthy Mommy you’re on okay um I start with my
Caba oil fre hummus slather it on there nice and good bit of lettuce sprouts and I like mustard ma oh I’m going to have some pickles I’m going to put some pickle slices in my wrap now you need the real fixings rice mushrooms I didn’t realize there were Sprouts in the
Mushrooms and tofu tofu beautiful done we are back from healthy parents I’m uploading I’m about to upload the footage that I just shot so that we can talk about some healthy swaps so first looking to the tortilla wraps I showed a great option for PAB bread that doesn’t
Have any oil added to it and that is fantastic another great one that you can buy online that I’ve purchased that I love is by the the Company atoria bakery they have a great op uh for a lavache bread that you can use and I do know the Trader Joe’s around
Here doesn’t sell it but I do know that there’s a Trader Joe’s lavage bread that doesn’t have any oil that people seem to enjoy Ezekiel food for life also has a tortilla that I recommend and you can also use corn tortillas those are fantastic options for wraps all the
Other wraps that you’re going to find at the grocery store are usually very high in fat or they have lard in them so they end up being a very high calorie item so I wouldn’t recommend those then for the fixen as you can see everything that my
Dad had for the fixin was water sauteed vegetables and he’s gotten really great at caramelizing these and in the cookbook in the healthy dad cookbook you can see how exactly he does it but this makes it so flavorful he uses great spices a great combination of spices to
Really make it tasty as opposed to traditionally when people are making wraps or sandwiches is they’ll cook up animal products and cheese and butter and oil very calorically dense so that sure you could have some vegetables in there but if they’re doused in cheese and oil and butter well now it’s become
Very calorically dense so you do want to make sure that you are steaming or baking or water sautéing so that you don’t have a bunch of added oil with calories that bypass satiety also for the Fixins you will notice that we had rice and we had tote tofu now tofu is a
Legume tofu is going to promote satiety it has a good source of fat and protein it’s going to give you that M to your meal so that you you feel like it’s sticking around for a little bit I would definitely recommend this as opposed to something like an animal product where
You you know you throw some chicken in there you throw some steak in there where you’re not getting the fiber that you’d get from having the tofu Tofu for example it can give you that sense of fullness because it does have the protein it does have the fat it hits
That satisfaction Factor but you also have the fiber same with beans or peas whereas when you have animal products you don’t have that fiber which is going to make digestion a little bit more difficult it’s going to make passing bowel movements a little bit more difficult so I would recommend that
Instead of an Animal product you use a something like a tofu or a Tempe or a Satan or a legume chickpeas beans peas lentils to give it that M and make it really sad satisfying without sacrificing fiber and then for the sauce as you can see we had tons of condiments
There we also had the Cava hummus which doesn’t have any oil added this is the Make It or Break It really is the sauce so we had mustard hot sauce my dad’s dressing from The cookbook oilfree hummus these are all great options because they add flavor without adding a
Ton of calories whereas if you take something like a ranch or a thousand island dressing that’s a really heavy dressing that has a lot of calories in it which once again are going to bypass satiety so you want to make sure that you’re choosing condiments I actually
Have a whole video I have two videos where I talk all about really great condiments that I would recommend here’s what the two thumbnails look like and I’ll link them below so you can watch those too pickles by the way pickles give a nice salty crunch so traditionally people will have potato
Chips with their meal or they’ll put potato chips into the sandwich or into the wrap but pickles is a really great way to get that crunch my dad also had water chestnuts which were within the wrap which gave a really nice satisfying crunch too we are back from healthy
Parents we had the best time we were crying laughing over the quiz for my dad and the food was delicious it was just awesome a great way to bring in his next year now I have been making a lot of recipes because the healthy family’s cookbook has just gone live so I was
Making them I was testing them and I’m ready for a little bit of Simplicity one of my favorite meals I could eat Plain Jane for the rest of my life and the meal that I’m about to eat well actually not yet but I want to show you before
The sun goes down and the lighting gets bad I’m going to eat it a little bit later the meal that I’m going to have I could eat every day for the rest of my life without a doubt however I just made the healthy family’s cookbook and so I
Was doing a lot of recipe Tes in this that and the other so I’m going to eat this and I already prepared these is which this is a key to success my clients know if you’re a slim OnStar client of mine you know that a key to
Success is to always make sure you have food prep I baked up a bunch of Hawaiian sweet potato pucks I get these online Hawaii by farm.com discount code me5 don’t get the off-grade ones sometimes the offgrade ones come moldy they’re a little bit cheaper but it’s not worth it
Get the get the normal ones I buy the 19 lb box whatever I’m going to make I make and what I’m not going to make I put them in the freezer they freeze beautifully and then when it’s time for me to cook them I’ll wrap them in
Parchment paper and tin foil and put them right in the oven directly from the freezer at 450 until they’re cooked through I have baked these pucks so I’m going to have these with lettuce don’t knock it till you try it usually when people have baked potatoes or when they
Have french fries we’ll just do a little side by-side comparison here of french fries which are going to be deep fried in tons of oil are going to be very high in fat very high in calories versus when you bake your potatoes on parchment paper you don’t have to add any oil you
Don’t have to add anything just use parchment paper or you can use non-stick tin foil and you just these were just baked at 450 until they looked like they were ready and I can tell that they’re ready um as you can see they they break up nice and easily again don’t knock it
Till you try it a nice warm potato made into a lettuce boat it’s so good it’s so good one of my favorite ways to eat the wi sweet potatoes is to bake them whole and then add cinnamon on top but sometimes I want them like this if you
Made it to this point of the video comment happy birthday healthy dad cuz I would love to show him all the comments and all the support make sure to get your copy of the healthy fames cookbook I’m so excited about it you’re going to love it your family is going to love it
Most importantly I love you Honeys and I’ll see you in my next video I
