Know someone thinking about going plant-based? Bring them into the group! You can swap recipes together and support each other along the way. Had a lovely chat with @Venus Usher on Coffee with me. I thought I hit record; apparently not. My apologies. If you missed it hopefully we will see you next week.

🎉 Let’s congratulate our Top 3 Leaderboard winners three weeks in a row! Jenny remains undefeated... 👏 Jenny Rader-Bakos 👏 Sally Crawford 👏 Venus Usher Thank you for your outstanding contributions, encouragement, and participation in this community. Your presence helps make this space stronger and more inspiring for everyone. Who will be in the Top 3 next week? Go for it — your name could be next! 🌱✨ Yesterday, I made some flavored beverages. I do that sometimes when I don't want to drink plain water. I cut up some cucumbers and put them in a jar of water. In another jar, I add a couple of strawberries and half a banana and water. I also made water and put mint leaves in it. Do you ever flavor your water? I meant to take pics, but forgot and drank it. 😀 Mark your calendars for Monday - Coffee with me. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!!!

The majority of you voted for the second video—thank you so much for your feedback! I’ll be using that one. 💚 Yesterday, I meal-prepped for the week, except for the quinoa, which I’ll make today. I also stopped by my local farmers market and picked up some fresh okra. I turned it into three different dishes: baked okra, fried okra, and okra gumbo—three meals from one vegetable! I also picked up an eggplant and made eggplant Parmesan. Then I baked sweet potatoes, prepared a fresh salad, and roasted onions, peppers, carrots, and mushrooms. Then I pulled out my juicer and made some apple juice, carrot-apple with ginger juice, and Kale, spinach, and apple juice. I drank a lot yesterday, and then put those in the freezer. For dessert, I made Key lime ice cream with a Raspberry sauce. I got my alfalfa seeds in yesterday, started soaking them, and my microgreens won't arrive until Wed. Take a look at my clover; I've been sprouting them for a couple of days. They are almost ready. If you are interested in learning how to sprout, let me know in the comments. Do you plan your meals ahead for the week, or do you usually wing it each night? Let me know in the comments! Don't forget to post your community today with links. I hope to see you tomorrow for Coffee with Marilyn and, if you’re a Premium member, on Tuesday for our cooking class. 💚
