Years ago every Indian household had their own special spice mixture, giving their family cuisine a unique characteristic flavor.

Commercial curry powders almost always contain nightshades like red pepper and cayenne. Many people ...

My favorite avocado snack is usually made with tomatoes, cayenne, and jalapeños. So here's a traditional Mexican recipe that'e easy on your digestion. Nightshade vegetables are a common allergen (tomatoes, peppers, white potatoes, eggplant). Many popular foods contain nightshades, like pizza, potato chips, and salsa.

This easy cranberry relish takes only 3 days to ferment! Our great grandmothers always fermented cranberry sauce. They knew it would keep for a long time, and was a delicious natural probiotic to promote healthy intestinal flora. If you're new to fermenting, it's EASY and tastier than store-bought! ...
Today's breakfast was a refreshing flavor treat of creamy, luscious papaya. I added tangerine, coconut milk, and strawberries for a WOW! Intensely luscious smoothie! Look for the healthy organic, non-GMO papaya with real seeds, as many papayas are genetically modified. (If they have NO SEEDS, how can they reproduce?) This papaya milkshake tastes like the papaya "batido" beverages I used to buy on the street in Mexico, except those are usually made with (uh oh!) sweetened evaporated milk ...
Simple and satisfying - this soup is prepared in the old-fashioned Japanese way. One of the major benefits of miso is that it is alive with friendly bacteria for optimum digestion.

Coffee is the biggest culprit that depletes Kidneys and Adrenals, and 85% of Americans use caffeine daily. In fact, we drink 400 million cups of Joe every day. Our coffee obsession is a roaring $30 billion industry! However, if you're an independent soul like me that wants to be truly healthy, here's a delicious alternative. I'll cut to the chase: Coffee is addictive. It slowly depletes the kidney energy, according to Chinese Medicine, which means it's VERY bad news for your creativity, long ...
The best meatballs I ever tasted! You don't have to be vegan to love them. Everyone goes crazy for these flavorful plant-based morsels.

You'll never guess there's no meat. This recipe is Paleo, vegan, free of many common allergens: gluten, eggs, beans, soy, grains, cheese, and breadcrumbs. Ha ha! Even better, they've got that "Mamma Mia" Italian flavor, ...
This uplifting beverage beats coffee hands down! Cacao is a top anti-oxidant that detoxes body chemistry and uplifts the spirit any time of day. It's an ideal antidote to modern bio-warfare. These days we need to bolster our immunity and resilience more than ever. Pure cacao is your friend, if it contains no sugar. Cacao is a medicine, non- addictive, and has no negative side effects for most people. Chocolate contains a bit of caffeine, but far less than coffee.
When you creatively mix ...
Oh boy! It's strawberry season! This healthy, refreshing mousse can be ready in 3 minutes. However please be sure to use organic strawberries, as these berries absorb nefarious amounts of pesticides. It's a great snack or dessert - all you need is five ingredients including a young coconut, strawberries, and a banana. Opening a young coconut used to be a chore, however my new Coco Jacktool makes it super-easy! See how it works below. I'm going to be using this a LOT! ...
Here's a tasty way to get your sea vegetables. Hijiki seaweed is a delicious nutrient-dense superfood, high in fiber, enzymes, amino acids, vitamins A, B, C, D, E, and K. Especially Vitamin K is critical, as it’s the single vitamin almost all of us are lacking!
Grated carrots, sesame, ginger and lime compliment hiziki's rich, nutty flavor. Serve this versatile salad alone, on a bed of greens, or over zoodles! Store for up to 4 days in the refrigerator. Serves 4.

Let's do something super-easy! If you have leftover brown rice and a few veggies on hand, it's a nutritious 5-minute meal. Breakfast, lunch or dinner, this is a great way to use leftovers. Start with 2 cups brown rice, preferably soaked or sprouted. Add a few sautéed veggies, and top with avocado. Egg and meat are optional.
"Brown rice" is just unpolished rice, so it is fully nutrient dense, and tastier. If you pre-soak it, then it starts to sprout, so it is supercharged with living ...

Sadly, the turmeric you're taking may not benefit you in any way. Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, can clear inflammation, pain, and ...
This is probably the best recipe I ever created. Since I LOVE Italian food, and I used to be allergic to cheese, I was HIGHLY MOTIVATED to recreate the flavor of Parmigiano Reggiano! This is basically coconut butter "cheese" with a ZING! Once you mix and chill it, you can use it just like parmesan cheese. Grate it, slice it, or cut into chunks. Instead of dairy, the ingredients are coconut butter, lemon, nutritional yeast, and optional Vitamin C for a sharp, aged cheese flavor.
BTW I ...

It's perfect for gatherings because it is so unique and it doesn't need refrigeration, since it CONTAINS NO MAYO! Try this ...
Everybody loves a slushy when it's hot outside! Blend them in just 5 minutes with whole fruit, which is WAY healthier than juice! Store-bought fruit juices are heat processed, stripped of fiber, acidifying, glycemic, tasteless, and low in nutrients. These thick slushies use whole fruit including fiber, blended all together with ice.
Commercial fruit slurpies are notoriously high in glycemic sugars. A good home blender is a great investment to keep everybody healthy and lower your ...
