Healthy Friday : A Veggie Rice Bowl :)

Happy Friday !

Are you trying to get healthy ? Now is always the right time to start . Don't cut out meat but you could always have one meat free day or two in the week . Getting healthy is a combination of things . Eating right . Making sure you consume alot of fruit and veggies . Having less sugar . A lot of people cut out sugar and go wild with the honey . Honey is just as bad . Just go easy with the honey as you do with everything in life . Over indulgence is bad . Getting the right amount of exercise . Going easy on the alcohol and drinking more water . Most of all being healthy is staying positive and looking ahead at your goals . Don't give up if it gets hard , the saying " Rome wasn't built in a day " comes to mind .

Today I would like to share a recipe of a rice bowl! The recipe is delicious and has a lot of vegetables. It's a great healthy choice! Healthy and good for our bodies. Enjoy!
