Profile of a Healthy Eater: Tina of Carrots ‘N’ Cake

Miss Tina is kicking off my new weekly feature with her Profile of a Healthy Eater. Since she’s a long-time healthy eater, I was very curious to hear her answers. Tina’s a big fan of finding a healthy balance in her diet and it definitely shows in her answers:

1. What’s the best thing about healthy eating? The way you feel! I always seem to have more energy when I eat well.
2. Do you give your eating a label (e.g., vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, high raw, etc.)? Balanced.
3. Favorite method of cooking and why? Fast and simple!
4. Favorite versatile herb/spice? I love fresh basil! Fresh ginger is another favorite!
5. Best healthy sweet treat? A big oatmeal raisin cookie on Cookie Friday. It’s good for the mind, body, and soul!
6. Your go-to five-minute meal? Scrambled eggs with lots of fresh veggies cooked in.
7. “Healthy” food you avoid like the plague? Water chestnuts. They’re probably the only healthy food I don’t like.
8. Who’s the person in your life that is the most baffled by how you eat? My husband sometimes thinks that my “kitchen experiments” are a little too creative!
9. What’s your healthy power/comfort food (the one food you know will get you through the day)? Oatmeal and peanut butter!
10. If you could change anything about your diet, what would it be? I’d like to add more fresh fruit and veggies.
