Ming, Ming is a typical Pug. She loves her food! I feed her a very nutrient dense, clean, meat based diet. She also loves fruit as occasional treats and carrots. She is my Paleo Pug. She is two years old, and when my husband gave her to me for Christmas when she was a puppy, she fit in the palm of my hand. I am her person. It is humbling and infinitely wonderful to be loved with such devotion by Ming. I want her to live a long, long life and be healthy as she ages. She loves chicken, and when you say “chicken” her eyes get very large and she tilts her head to the side listening intently. It is a buzz word for her as well as “liver”. When I have a crock pot of chicken bone broth going in the house she hangs around the pot just to smell it. Pugs have a tendency to the plump side, so she walks every day with me and we keep her treats small. In this photo, Ming is waiting patiently, but seriously, for her dinner.
About Me
Sandra Shields, Food and Wellness Blogger, Health Coach, Healthy Living, Food Intolerance Recipes, Well Rounded Living
Hello! I am Sam. I am a foodie and a Health Coach who likes being in the kitchen creating healthier versions of favorite foods, especially for those with food intolerances and restrictions, or those who are looking to incorporate healthier eating habits. I have had an obsession with baking since I was ten! I started this blog to share recipes I was making for myself after finding out I had several food sensitivities, including gluten. I had no idea what I was going to eat and how I would feed my hungry family. I went to school for Health Coaching as a second career at Institute for Integrative Nutrition, the world's largest health coaching school. I wanted to have recipes I could eat, and the whole family would enjoy, that were healthy, delicious and made with ingredients that promoted overall health. So this is in essence my food diary. Taking real food and creating delicious recipes is something I am passionate about. From experience, I believe nutrient dense food gives the body the best fuel and building blocks to be vibrant, healthy, prevent disease, and maintain great energy as well as heal. I am excited to share delicious food recipes and tips!

She looks a bit like a fluffy bear in this picture. This is her patiently waiting sit!

At least she is patient. She looks concerned that you might forget to feed her.
