It's that time of year when transition is on the horizon, the time when we reflect on the past with hopes for a better future. At this time of year, many people seek to live a better, healthier life. Nutrition is the gateway to that change. This hearty and healthy winter side dish fuses heart and hearth in the home this winter.

Bright and vibrant, the sweet potato and kale color scheme is like an artistic painting to the soul. A mix of warm and cool hues, this is energy directly from the earth. Now that the sun is in Capricorn, a practical earth sign, we can fuel our bodies with root vegetables and produce pulled directly from the earth.

I used purple kale to add a bit of color and flare to the dish. However, any type of kale works for this side dish.  Bring some color to your soul and home this winter with this dish. I encourage you to use your intuition and adjust spices and ingredients as needed. Adding caramelized purple onion to this dish is another excellent addition of flavor.

"Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside
the fire: it is time for home."

I'm Angel Castor from the US. White Caucasian Female. I'm 43 years old and I got married at the age of 25, I have only two children and I am living happily.

Five years ago, my husband's behavior became so strange that I didn't really understand what was going on. He packed out of the house to another woman’s house and I love him so much that I
never dream of losing him, I tried my best to make sure that my husband got back to me but all to no avail, I cried and cried seeking help. I discussed it with my best friend Alison and she told me she can help me. She told me of a man called Dr. Odunga, she told me he is a very great man and a real man that can be trusted and there is nothing concerning love and Pregnancy issues he cannot solve and she told me how he has helped her and countless number of people in

restoring their relationship. I quickly contacted his email address at [email protected] I explained all my problems to him, he told me that I should not worry that all my problems will be fine. Presently, I am very happy I got my husband back to me with the help of Dr. Odunga and we are living happily with so much love for each other. What-app message/call him at +2348167159012 to help you
