Why I am not losing anything?

“I eat buckwheat, but I’m not losing any weight. What am I doing wrong? I thought buckwheat helps with weight loss. ” I hear this question quite often.

The ways to prepare

Roasted buckwheat, unlike raw (green one), is very easy and fast to cook! It takes only 13 - 15 minutes to boil.

Where to get healthy protein?

Since 2009, 80-90% of my everyday dinner is a vegetable salad. I didn't copy anybody, neither I am a vegetarian. However, there was a cause for this.

Healthy lunch

Why do I eat roasted buckwheat groats kasha? Instead of rice, pasta, or potatoes, I choose roasted buckwheat — an amazing savory alternative! The best part?

Easy kasha meal

3 bowls, 3 spoons, 1 frying pan, and 1 pot.  No drama dinner for 3. It was a nice evening. Everybody was too lazy to bother cooking.
