Cabbage and Tomato Stew

By Jen Paleracio | May 23, 2017

Rushing to get dinner done? No worries I got you covered today. This easy recipe is going to be the family’s fave. I used a ready canned tomato sauce, but I made sure there’s no sugar or artificial flavorings in it. Remember, clean eating is not a strict diet, we all have busy lives, so minimally processed foods sometimes is the best choice we have. This is why it’s important to read the label and get yourself familiar with the right ingredients.

It is about making the best choices to empower ourselves. Don’t beat up yourself if you mess up one day – you can always get back on track the following day and just make the most of what you can. Clean eating is not a standard way of eating based on somebody else’s needs. It’s not defined by anybody but yourself.

So let’s start cooking!
