# 7 - Healthier Recipes
Created June 2012
In an effort to "lighten" my recipes and eat somewhat healthier, I have combined some of my recipes along with several recipes from some great cooks who are gracious enough to share their delicious ideas. Thanks to all.

1- According to Dr. Joel Fuhrman, if you can eat 90% plant foods and only 10% from animal sources, you will reap the best health benefits for the heart, and also lose weight. That means you can have a LITTLE cheese, Lynn! Oh, joy!
2- ORGANIC cheese is even better for you, because the cows are grass-fed and not grain-fed, which makes the fat in organic cheese have more Omega-3 healthy oils.
So maybe there is light at the end of the tunnel for us cheese-lovers!
Yeah, Lynn, I just got out of the hospital Tuesday after my 7th heart stent implant and am really going to try harder to lighten my recipes. I will also be watching on here for any new recipes that will be a little easier on the body.
It's hard to change a lifetime of eating habits but I am really trying.
