15-Minute Green Goddess Detox Soup

Pamper your taste buds with this rich, detoxifying soup! "Only the pure in heart can make a good soup." said Ludwig von Beethoven. This satisfying soup is the perfect nourishment AND detox medicine, using the magic of pure vegetables. The recipe makes a big pot, and it’s very flexible - feel free to use any veggies on hand. I love green beans, asparagus, and zucchini. (But, if you don’t like asparagus, just use another veggie!) For a beautiful green color, I used mostly green ...

Zoodles in 1-minute flat

How to make zucchini noodles? Zoodles are a guilt-free, no-weight-gain solution to authentic Italian dishes like Pasta Alfredo. Way better than rice, corn, quinoa, and other high-carb, processed noodles, nothing beats fresh vegetable spaghetti! Once you try zoodles you'll never go back! ...

Zoodles with No-Tomato Sauce

I love Italian food, especially pasta with tomato sauce. However it's tough on my body, which prefers this amazing recipe with Zoodles and No-Tomato Sauce (or your favorite pasta sauce), and Vegan Parmesan Cheese. Why eat spaghetti that's high in carbs and nutritionally empty? I react to the acidity in tomatoes, a nightshade, like many other Caucasians. And nightshades are tough for some members of my family that have arthritis inflammation. If this isn't an issue, just use your favorite ...

Zoodles with Butter, Garlic & Herbs

This 5-minute meal that Italians call "Spaghetti con Burro e Salvia" or "Spaghetti with Butter and Sage" is a standard everyday favorite. My adapted recipe is even more delicious, and super-low in carbs, so it won't go to your waistline - Hooray! Zoodles are a favorite 5-minute veggie - much quicker than spaghetti, gluten-free, and grain-free. The easy herb sauce is just butter with your favorite fresh herbs. Sage is traditional in Venice, but feel free to use any herbs you like, such as basil, thyme, tarragon, or oregano. Grass-fed butter is packed with nutrients...

Kung Fu Chicken with Fermented Natto Anti-viral

I call it Kung Fu Chicken, meaning Achievement of Man, which describes this sauce perfectly. A yummy superfood! It turns out the world's highest concentration of Vitamin K2, may also be an antidote for the spike protein. A study published in the journal ‘Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications‘ holds that extract of Natto breaks down the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. OK, what is Natto? Natto is a fermented soybean dish in Japan. It's a serious superfood and will boost your health to the moon. However, I need to warn you, the flavor is strange. Since it is very healthy and greatly needed in our time, I invented this recipe to "cover" the taste. But it will take most Westerners some time to develop a taste for Natto. See resource links below. ...

Wild Salmon Zoodles alla Veneziana

Tonight I was craving a favorite dish I use to love in a trattoria near the Fish Market in Venice, Italy - Spaghetti al Salmone con Panna.

It uses zucchini noodles and coconut milk, skipping the wheat pasta with gluten and heavy cream. The flavor is every bit as delicious. "Zoodles" are easy to make on a ...

Turkey Curry Stew with Pumpkin

A delicious stew with an exotic twist. Inspired by Asian peanut curry, instead of peanuts it uses almond butter - Yummy! I serve this in bowls without rice or noodles, for a high-nutrient, delicious low-carb meal. A key ingredient is turmeric in the curry powder. Turmeric has powerful anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. ...

Zoodles alla Carbonara, Paleo style

Everyone loves Spaghetti alla Carbonara! This easy 15-minute meal is high in protein, low in carbs, Paleo-adapted with zoodles, or zucchini noodles! We think of this as a traditional Italian dish, however it's actually a 1944 adaptation of US Army rations. Spaghetti alla Carbonara was invented by a smart Italian refugee woman during WWII. It seems American troops shared powdered eggs and bacon with starving coal diggers who had fled to the hills around Rome to escape the Germans. ...
