Falling into
winter
Eating with the seasons helps keep
our bodies in balance. The ingredients in this juice are typically
fall or winter fare. Find your favorites to juice. We had a garden
in Arizona and could choose from three types of kale, curly leafed,
purple, or the dark green. Most people can find these varieties
in farmers' markets.
Fat Melt Down Juice
This juice helps reduce fat from the
places we tend to store cellulite - arms and lower body. Plus, the
ginger warms and stimulates the blood to circulate while we are
slimming down.
Finaisely Juiced Delight
The contrast of the sweet pineapple
and the salty celery, tweaked by the unexpected licorice flavor
of the anise makes this drink a pleasant surprise.
Fruit Crapes and Roll-Ups
These desserts are only the natural
fruit. I enjoy making these for a sweet snack when I am about to
go on the road. It seems odd to take a dry fruit, add water, and
reform it again, but the mixture of some of these flavors is worth
the time invested. These recipes are simple to make. Simply soak
the dried fruit, blend in the machine, pour onto a teflex or wax
sheet and dehydrate until dry enough to roll up and enjoy as a fruit
roll. The more frozen fruit you add the thicker the fruit roll.
A fresh banana makes it thinner, creamier and sweeter.
Garden Delight Juice
This bright beet juice is both refreshing
and cooling. A delight on a warm afternoon or as an evening cocktail.
Gourmet Gerson Carrot Apple
Juice
Grainy Cookies
Here is an alternative cookie recipe
for those folks with sensitivity to wheat. Kamut is a large grain
that is quite tasty, and can be found in most natural food stores.
Green Goddess Soup
I was so excited when I discovered
this taste combination. Avocado is a fruit and as such combines
perfectly with the sweet nectar of the orange, and is contrasted
by the sourness of the grapefruit. Delightful!
Green Green Juice
This juice is loaded with chlorophyll.
Go easy on the kale, unless you like its flavor. Celery will make
the juice more salty. Anise will sweeten with a licorice flavor.
Cucumber and romaine are mellow flavors and apple is sweet. Try
"chewing" the juice in your mouth to experience the flavors.
Green Powered Juice
This is a four star juice. All the
ingredients are exceptional foods for cleaning the blood and strengthening
the river. The ginger is good for warming up the body on a cold
day. Even used alone, each of these ingredients does wonders for
our health.
Holiday Delight Soup
The festive colors of this soup make
it a holiday favorite for guests around my home. Strawberries have
a natural painkiller, salicylate, and so this drink helps relieve
any stress celebrating may create.
How Do You Spell Relief?
Juice
Relief is spelled: j-u-i-c-e. This
juice's rich digestive aids from both the apple and cabbage give
new meaning to the word relief.
How Sweet Anise Is Drink
Carrot and celery juices combined
are an electrolyte balancer in hot weather. Our bodies lose sodium
in hot weather, and this juice replenishes and rejuvenates us.
If We Cantaloupe Juice
Picking out a ripe cantaloupe is half
the fun. If it smells sweet where the stem would be (the soft spot
on top), feels reasonably firm and is evenly round, it is a tasty
cantaloupe.
In the Pink with Zinc Drink
Pumpkin seeds are high in zinc which
is good for preventing prostate problems and helping feed our immune
systems. Cranberries are wonderful for helping our bladders keep
in balance. Lemons stimulate the liver to make enzymes. And, apples
and bananas have a wide array of vitamins and minerals that support
health. This is one of the more satisfying drinks morning, noon
or night.
Island Paradise Soup
There is something wildly delicious
about this combination of flavor. The sweetness of the pineapple
contrasted by the saltiness of the celery just starts the flavor
carousel. Then adding the grapes and mango puree with pineapple
pieces makes a tropical paradise. The crunchiness of the grape,
the smoothness of the mango puree and the sweetness of the pineapple
- wow!
Italian Bread Sticks
I have always loved garlic bread and
bread sticks. This recipe combines the best of both.
Italian Eggplant Sauce
This recipe a great spread for tortillas
or pita pockets. It is thought that eggplant has to be cooked to
eat it, but this is not so. This sauce can be made entirely raw,
and it tastes great. It also goes well with other Middle Eastern
dishes like tabouli (a cracked wheat salad) or tahini (sesame butter).
This sauce's slightly bitter flavor makes it wonderful for salads. |
