Recipes for a truly healthy lifestyle

Who says eating healthy can’t be fun? Not me. And not only can it be fun, it can be delicious and easy, too. Part of my expertise with food is making it both healthy and simple. Here are a few of my favorite recipes to get you started. I’ve organized them by type (breakfast, snacks, soups, etc.), but there are no rules. Maybe you want something under snacks for a meal. (Or vice-versa.) Or maybe you want a smoothie for dessert. Salads can be whole meals and soups work for both lunch or dinner. And I say trust your taste—it’s part of your instincts. Hopefully these recipes will help you think about how to discover what’s best for you. Part of the philosophy behind them is that they can be tweaked in any way you wish. Add your own favorite plant foods and spices. Reading these recipes will help you think about how to prepare your own favorites!

Smoothies

The Ultimate Smoothie – a Perfect Breakfast to start your day!

Blend:

1 banana, sliced and frozen (or a pear is a great alternative). If not already frozen then add handful of ice.

Salt to taste, if desired.

Salads

The Ultimate Salad (and it takes just 5 minutes!) This one is my favorite!

Large handful of baby greens into bowl. What is “large” is up to you. Your instincts rock. Use your fingers to crush/soften the greens up a little bit. This helps the greens to better absorb the salad dressing.

Add a handful of sauerkraut

A few sun-cured olives

Five cherry tomatoes

Add a sliced carrot

Quarter cup Infinity Almonds

1 Tablespoon ground flaxseed meal

Sprinkle of Celtic sea salt.

And why not a dusting of cayenne pepper

For salad dressing – Squeeze one lemon and add 1-2 tablespoons olive oil.

Give it a stir and voila!

Optional: Add some sliced wild salmon.

Take this one to work. Pack it in a glass Tupperware and off you go!

The Ultimate Salad (and it takes just 5 minutes!)

A couple handfuls of arugula into a bowl,

A few leaves of basil,

A handful of sunflower sprouts. (I prefer to crush them up a little bit with my fingers. This makes them tender.)

Add: sliced avocado, cucumber, pickle, a few sun-cured olives, and handful of raw sauerkraut.

Add 1 Tablespoon ground flaxseed meal, a sprinkle of Billy's Sprouted Almonds (for healthy fats with a crunch), dulse flakes, Celtic sea salt, and cayenne.

Pour on olive oil and the juice of one lemon

Give it a little stir and voila!

Optional: Add some sliced wild salmon.

Raw Cole-Slaw – Fun to Make and Tasty to Eat!

For this, you'll need a food processor as well as a blender.

Using shredder blade in food processor:

Add 1 head purple and/or green cabbage

2 carrots

1 red onion

Blend in the blender:

1/2 cup lemon juice

4 Tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon celery seed

1 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon dry thyme

Mix ingredients together in a large bowl and enjoy!

Here are a couple extra of my favorite salad dressings:

Tangy Ginger Dressing

Blend:

3/4 cup olive oil,

1/2 cup lemon juice,

2 Tablespoons honey,

2 tablespoons chopped ginger,

1 rounded teaspoon sea salt.

How could a dressing be so good? Apply liberally over a mix of organic baby greens, sliced avocado and tomato, sprouts, and sundried olives.

Simply Fabulous Dressing

Blend in blender:
1/2 cup olive oil,

1/2 cup lemon juice,

1 teaspoon sea salt,

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper.

Tastes amazing over greens, steamed veggies, or as a dip!

Or, you don't want a salad with dressing?

Then cut to the finish line and just eat a large handful of greens! Like we talked about, greens are vitally important. Who needs salad dressing anyway? Green food doesn't taste bad, so just go for it!

Meals (lunches and dinners)

Tamari Rice and Veggies

1/2 cup white rice (or brown if you prefer, but white rice has been in the human diet for thousands of years and is brilliant) and a little more than one cup water into the pot.

1 sliced carrot

3 sliced Brussels sprouts

2 leaves collard greens, chopped

Low boil until water is absorbed

Broil or boil 6 ounces of cod and add to pot after rice is cooked

Add 1 Tablespoon Tamari and juice of half lemon

Zucchini Pasta and Marinara Sauce

You'll need a blender and a food processor for this one.

Ingredients: zucchini, tomato, sun-dried tomato, onion, bell pepper, garlic, ginger, olive oil, dry basil, oregano, thyme.

Soak 1 cup sun dried tomatoes in 2 cups water for at least a few hours prior to preparation.

To make the spaghetti noodles for 2 servings: use shredder blade and run three zucchinis through the food processor. This will produce noodle-spaghetti-like pieces. Place in metal pot with pure water and add 1 teaspoon sea salt. Heat pot to warm temperature up to 105 degrees (you can just test temp with hand). This will soften the zucchini but allow it to remain raw and enzymatically rich.

For marinara, place the following ingredients in food processor (use blender if you prefer sauce to be smoother):

1 tomato cut in quarters,

1 red onion cut in quarters,

1 red bell pepper cut into quarters (seeds removed),

1 rounded teaspoon diced fresh ginger,

1 cup soaked sun-dried tomatoes,

1 cup soak water from sun dried tomatoes,

2/3 cup olive oil,

2 cloves garlic,

1 tablespoon dry basil,

1 tablespoon dry oregano,

1 tablespoon dry thyme,

1 teaspoon sea salt.

Strain zucchini pasta and press to squeeze out some of the extra water. This gives it more of a traditional pasta texture. Place pasta over bed of greens of choice. Pour sauce over zucchini pasta and garnish with sun-dried olives and avocado slices.

Dang this is good!

Snacks

Zingity-Bling Pesto Dip

Blend:

Big handful fresh spinach,

1 ripe Roma tomato,

Juice of 2 lemons,

2 round tablespoons pine nuts,

2 tablespoons olive oil,

Enjoy with flax seed crackers. Blue corn chips that have been cooked in coconut oil and seasoned with sea salt are an acceptable option! These products are out there. Just read the labels!

Best Guacamole!

Select avocado of perfect ripeness and scoop into bowl.

Add juice of one lemon and sprinkle of sea salt . . . and maybe a little cayenne!

Mash together with a fork.

Serve with flax seed crackers or celery or cucumber slices.

So easy, so good.
