My Favorite Breakfast Parfait

Healthy food can be easy and delicious. Just layer in a glass and enjoy! Yep, this quick breakfast is from Dr. Johana Budwig's famous anti-cancer protocol. However, it's a favorite meal or snack anytime! Dr. Budwig was a brilliant German doctor with a 95% success rate healing cancer. Wow! Nominated for the Nobel Prize seven times, she discovered that when unsaturated fats and protein are exposed to sunlight, it activates vital healing solar electrons in the body. Hmmm... tell me more. The food industry did not take kindly to her discovery, which was hidden in the hype promoting modern processed vegetable oils. I've been following her amazing book: The Oil-Protein Diet Cookbook. ...

Cauliflower Risotto with Lentils & Mushrooms

This delicious risotto is a snap to make, and will rival anything you'll taste in an Italian trattoria. I made this low-carb cauliflower risotto for my recent cooking workshop in Italy, and it was a huge hit.

Riced cauliflower has an al-dente texture just like Arborio rice, but without the carbs. Yay! To "rice" the cauliflower, you can grate by hand, or spin in a ...

Fluffy Buckwheat Pancakes with Apple Butter

The easiest, healthiest, fluffiest pancakes I ever tasted. If you have whole buckwheat groats, an apple, and a blender, you've GOT this! The night I invented it, I lay wide awake staring at the full moon. I had just discovered that fine ground "flour" as we know it is neither healthy nor Paleolithic. I mean, how could they hand grind wild seeds on a stone on the floor of a cave? Suddenly I had a vision of fluffy buckwheat pancakes without flour. Yep, sounds impossible. Immediately I got up to soak some buckwheat groats. Next morning, the results were the sweetest, fluffiest, tastiest pancakes ever! We were eating them with apple butter within 15 minutes! A major discovery! ...

Flourless Almond Blender Bread

A super-easy bread with unbelievable flavor, this high-protein loaf is Paleo, grain-free, and gluten-free. Even better, it's FLOURLESS, so it cleans your intestines as it nourishes your body. Yep, all flours are perishable (even almond and coconut flour) becoming stale or rancid a few weeks after grinding. Flours tend to get stuck in the intestinal wall as mucoid plaque, a gluey substance that creates bulges and belly flab. We don't want that! ...
