Get excited about your food. As in get excited about your healthy plate.  Todays lunch was an assortment of "goodies."  The trick is to add the small details that make a big difference.

Today's plate included fresh sliced carrots, and cucumbers (topped with kosher salt to bring out their flavor) for dipping.  Hummus topped with roasted grape tomatoes and garlic olive oil, garlic stuffed and marinated olives, and toasted pita brushed with the same olive oil.

Adding a little flavor to olive oil is easy.  In a sauté pan pour 2-4 tablespoons of olive oil, and heat with garlic cloves (2-3) and a little sprinkle of kosher salt.  Just heat until you can smell the garlic.

These small details make a big impact.
