Vegan Beefy-Mushroom Stroganoff Recipe

Vegan Beefy-Mushroom Stroganoff

Don't you just adore the earthy taste of wild mushrooms? I love the chewy and satisfying texture of all mushrooms. 

The beefy, earthy and creamy texture of this East-European dish is unbelievable! The original recipe is made with chicken or calf (sad face), but you won't miss the authenticity of Stroganoff! 

This vegan Mushroom Stroganoff is the perfect dish for a Dinner-Date or a family supper!

The Great Coffee Hoax

Mmm... the smell of freshly roasted coffee beans in the morning. Don't you just love it?

To be honest, coffee was never my preference! But we all agree that there’s nothing more comforting than a nice hot cup of… well, anything!

Since I can remember, coffee gave me sugar cravings for the day, a sour stomach, and digestive problems. I couldn’t help but think that there was something wrong with me. As it turns out, there’s something wrong with coffee!

Despite popular belief, coffee isn’t a health food. It’s actually no food at all! Coffee is a drug!

What’s wrong with Caffeine?

Home-Made Pedialyte - 5 Delicious Gatorade Recipes For Smart Moms and Athletes

When your infant or child is having chronic vomiting or diarrhea, perhaps due to intestinal flu, there is nothing more important to you, than giving her/him some fluids.

What's the first thing that pops into your mind? Pedialyte! Is Pedialyte really the best solution? Let's evaluate.

"Pedialyte, a miserable chemically loaded twin of Gatorade marketed to the American Mothers as something revolutionary new and healthful. Well, I have done my best digging for it. And? And I have found nothing, zero value!" - Nick, PhD in Organic Chemistry - DyeDiet Blog

Electrolytes in Pedialyte and Gatorade are important because they are what your cells (especially nerve, heart, muscle) use to maintain voltages across their cell membranes and to carry electrical impulses (nerve impulses, muscle contractions) across themselves and to other cells.

Your kidneys work to keep the electrolyte concentrations in your blood constant despite changes in your body. For example, when you exercise heavily, you lose electrolytes in your sweat, particularly sodium and potassium.

These electrolytes must be replaced to keep the electrolyte concentrations of your body fluids constant. But what about all the sugars, additives, dyes and chemicals that are added to Pedialyte and Gatorade?

Do you really want to add toxins and chemicals into your sick child's little body?

Of course not!

If it comes to running the household smoothly, I take any help I can get. This list will do just that, take the small burden of coming up with snack ideas, lunch ideas, as well as remembering what you prepared recently.


The project is quite simple really and this is what you need

Welcome to Baechler Vitality - Where Confusion Ends and Health Begins

Health and Energy or the destruction of Health and Energy results from what we eat, drink, breathe, put on our skin and from what we think and feel. These are the six ways we either make ourselves healthy and vital, or sick and weak!

If you found BaechlerVitality, you must be unsatisfied with the information and support you received concerning your health, weight or your energy level. I completely understand how frustrating it is to find all the necessary and true information if it comes to health and well-being  I understand how frustrating it is when you treat a symptoms but your overall health doesn't improve!

I'm a Nutrition Specialist focusing on Holistic Health and the Juicing Lifestyle, dedicated to providing you with the principals of

• Degenerative Disease-Prevention and Reversal
• True Naturopathy (Detoxification)
• Healthy Family Lifestyle
• Naturally Balanced Weight Loss (NO PILLS)

Naturopathy is the purest form of healing. At the core of Naturopathy are alkalization and detoxification.

Imagine if you could reverse degenerative diseases and prevent premature aging! What if you could reverse obesity, lose weight easily after pregnancy and say goodbye to all your nutrition worries, just close your eyes and imagine it. How would you feel? How would your family feel? What would you do with your new life?

I'm not going to bore you with counting calories in carbohydrates, proteins and fat. Instead, let's learn about the importance of whole foods, living foods, supplementation and detoxification. If you apply all the principals of health and balance, weight loss will undoubtedly follow. Enjoy simple foods like banana, beans, and broccoli again without the bloating, discomfort or food sensitivity. The best thing, lose weight without even trying.

Conventional diets are boring, hard, they make you miserable and leave you feeling deprived of not only food, but life!
