Cow-abunga! Almond Milk Cuts Into Dairy Profits
Jan 13th
It seems that enough dairy-alternative advocates like Hallelujah Acres are finally getting the message through. According to market research, sales of commercially produced almond milk were up 13% in 2010 after flat sales in 2009.
This news was music to our ears! We know the positive impact that reducing dairy can have on one’s health. Thousands of people tell us how their health improved when they gave up dairy and adopted alternatives like almond milk when they switched to The Hallelujah Diet.
Almond milk, hemp milk, hazelnut milk, rice milk, and even coconut milk are all making headway in the milk-alternative marketplace. However, one milk alternative you should avoid is soy milk. Soy contains estrogen-like chemicals, called phytoestrogens, and heightened exposure to estrogen has been linked with increased risk of breast cancer.
There are also healthy alternatives to other dairy products like cheese, yogurt, and butter. There are great non-soy cheese alternatives made with almonds or tapioca; there’s a new cultured coconut yogurt product on the market (Turtle Mountain brand); and Hallelujah Butter is a great alternative to dairy butter – and many say it tastes even better!
In fact, making Hallelujah Butter is just as easy as making your own almond milk. Homemade almond milk is a better option since commercial products include unnecessary ingredients like cane sugar and thickening agents. Here’s an almond milk recipe.
Who needs dairy when you can make your own alternatives?
Make Life Simpler With A Salad Box
Nov 3rd
When you come home from work the last thing you want to do is chop up a bunch of veggies for a salad. We feel the same way, which is why we invented “The Salad Box.”
The salad box is a simple concept we created so that we could have pre-cleaned, pre-cut veggies ready to go whenever we wanted – and it’s all in one handy box that fits in our refrigerator. It brings the convenience of a salad bar into your own home! You know everything is fresh and cleaned… because you did it!
All you have to do is get a large, clear, plastic under-the-bed style storage box and several smaller boxes to fit inside. All your veggies will fit into the smaller boxes, one type of veggie per box. Put them all in the larger box and you have a mini salad bar ready to go in your own refrigerator.
We searched high and low for boxes that would fit inside an average refrigerator. The best, large box can be found at Target stores, and the little boxes that go inside are available at Walmart. Watch our salad box video for details.
Here’s how it works. Simply buy 4-5 days’ worth of veggies, seeds, nuts, water chestnuts or anything you’d normally put in salads, stir frys, or pita wraps. Designate an hour on one evening to wash and prepare all the ingredients and put them in the smaller boxes within the large salad box and you’ll have everything ready to go whenever you wish for several days and even up to an entire week!
The salad box saves a lot of time and makes dinner prep a lot less stressful. Watch part 1 and part 2 of our salad box videos for all the details! We also demonstrate this concept during our 60 Days to Reclaim Your Health program.
