Every Wednesday this semester we will be posting about a new blog or cooking website that we love! The internet is filled with food websites, and our goal is to arm you with the “Best of the Food Web”!

“At its core, eating well is an act of self love which has physical, emotional and spiritual implications” –Sweet Beet

A firm believer in eating whole foods 90% of the time, Michelle started Sweet Beet to help others become educated about the foods they are consuming. The attitude of the blog is fantastic! Instead of saying “eat ONLY whole foods,” Michelle realistically states to eat whole, nutritious foods the majority of the time, but if a craving hits, don’t deny yourself completely – it’s all about balance. A photographer and a writer, Michelle has created a beautiful blog that is as enjoyable to look at as it is to read. The content includes a mix of recipes, nutrition education, and discussions on current health trends. Below are some posts that immediately grabbed my attention, but be sure to check out the blog yourself and see what you can find!

• The Edible Over-The-Counter Cold Remedy — Nope, not chicken soup: garlic!
• Sweet Potato Wedges with Sweet Pepper Flakes + Yogurt Dip
• Breakfast Muffins Minus the Muffin — great portable breakfast idea!
• Best Spaghetti Sauce
