Light like spring. ✨ Japanese zucchini. I’m trying to do a lot more plant-based meals. Working with my autoimmune is an up-and-down process; the food I eat really dictates not only my moods but energy levels. The things I am trying to stay away from are dairy, processed foods, and caffeine. I’m going to keep adding more plant-based recipes like this. Wishing you all a healthy rest of the week.
