Green Hijabi


From The Eco-Muslim writes on Green Hijabi:
Green Hijabi shares quick tips on introducing green veggies into your palette. She's written a seriously satisfying and sweet pumpkin smoothie recipe for the autumn season (fall for my American readers). And my personal favourite - a photo essay on her environmentally alert Eid.

Green Hijabi has a literal life-guide we could all take a leaf from; she believes in:
"investing more on the inside than the outside
that the 5 pillars are the means to aligning our physical and spiritual selves
God answers all sincere prayers; to receive them, we must be open
His creation - everything and everyone - is ultimately interconnected

in bio-individuality: each one's path to optimal health is unique
the body is designed to thrive on foods found in nature; all else is questionable
food is not a religion, but is a relevant part of it"

What also makes Green Hijabi yum is the oozing wholesome personality. It's just fun to read and learn from her, and I'm thinking of contributing to her commonly used phrases:
