    Carrots and Zucchini

    Recipe from Austria! This Gluten-Free, Vegan Gnocchi with Pesto Carrots and Zucchini is full of flavor and so easy to make for dinner.

    Carrots-and-Zucchini
    I got this recipe from a friend in Hungary after she got the famous Viva Mayr cookbook. Now I was impressed because Viva Mayr is the all renown place to go and get a boost into a healthy life without compromising on tasty foods.

    The menu is all alkaline to help heal the body of inflammation. It is the main elimination to help to stop disease from attacking the body.

    Inflammation in the body, come to find out, is what makes us sick. I know this because of my spine and the minute I eat anything that is not alkaline my whole world becomes painful. Yes, when I am in pain everything seems to stop.


    It feels like a heaviness that I don’t seem to be able to move around. I know when this happens because my rings are  tight in the morning. Before I didn’t quite understand this inflammation in the body but the minute my rings are tight I get my water and start drinking as much as I can to flush the body.


    I’m hoping one day I will be a guest at the Viva Mayr but it is really expensive so right now I’ll stick to my cookbook when I want to detox or heal my body from not eating right.
