 FAQ’s

Q.  Do I have to cook the entire 30 days?

A.  NO!  You just need to devote at least one meal during each week, and prepare the healthy ingredient, using the recipe provided, or using one of your own.  Sharing your results with the group is highly encouraged!

 Q:  What if I don’t like (or are sensitive) to the ingredient of the week?

A.  I’ll provide 4 options each week, out of a list of 24.  You can use any one of the 4, or more if you feel fancy!  If none of those appeal to you, just choose one from the entire list.  The idea is to try new foods and new ways to prepare those foods.  Also, many of the foods may be familiar to you – but perhaps they are also food you have just steamed in the micro or sauteed and called it a day!!

Q.  Will you provide nutritional information for each recipe?

A.  Yes, recipes will contain nutritional information with calories and macronutrients, and the information sheets will contain micronutrient information and health benefits.  This challenge is a focus on health, not necessarily weight loss.  Weight Loss may come, especially if you take the 30 days to eat clean – but it’s not guaranteed!  Recipes may not all be low carb, but they will all be low sugar and free of poor-quality ingredients!

 Q.  Will I need to purchase other, exotic ingredients?

A.  NO!  The main ingredient may be unusual, but it will should be available at your local chain grocery store. All other recipe ingredients, will most likely be in your cabinet.

 Q.  What if I’m traveling during the 30-day period?

A.  No worries.  Once you enroll, you will be provided the entire list, all the recipes and access to the page.  I leave the pages up well after the challenge ends.  You are free to stop and start or choose your own dates.

 Q.  When is payment due and how do I pay?

A.  You can pay via me via Venmo, or through a link on this website before September 4th.  Encanterra residents may pay via check or cash.  Once paid, you will get an invitation to the private Facebook page and all the tools for the challenge.
