Asparagus with Chana Dal
I love asparagus, it cooks in just a few minutes and it’s the best source of Folate (one of the most important nutrients especially for women). I tried mixing it with some Chana Dal (my new favorite lentil) and I am addicted. Chana dal is simply a split chickpea without the skin and you can buy it at any Indian grocer. You only need to fry it for a short time and it becomes crunchy and edible. It’s now a staple in almost all my vegetable dishes. Don’t get hung up if you don’t have all the spices I’ve listed – add your own blend.
coconut oil
chana dal
split urad dal
mustard seed
cumin seed
asafetida
asparagus
salt to taste
Avocado Cabbage Spring Rolls and Carrot Ginger Miso Sauce
Blackberry Balsamic Vinaigrette and Candied Walnut Spinach Salad with Goat Cheese
Breakfast Parfait
Packed with probiotics, protein, Omega 3‘s, and cancer-fighting ellagic acid, this simple, tasty, satisfying breakfast also makes a great snack or dessert. I like to use frozen berries for this. Make the parfait, then take a shower or get dressed. This gives just enough time for the berries to begin thawing so their lovely juices mingle with the yogurt and hemp seeds. Then eat the parfait. Delicious!
raw shelled hemp seeds
organic plain yogurt
berries
dash of cinnamon
walnuts
dark agave nectar
Butternut-Ginger Bisque
Creamy, satisfying, and rich in beta-carotene, this brilliant bisque is actually dairy-free. It freezes well, so you may want to make a double batch (using both halves of the squash) and freeze it for later.

Date Syrup
When the recipe for Kabocha Squash & Tahini spread called for date syrup I thought it would be easy to find. It wasn't! I found it available to order online but I didn't want to wait so I found this recipe online instead, after typing in 'date syrup'!
Medjool dates
water
vanilla
cinnamon
Egg Flowers
Visually stunning and simple to prepare, this lovely dish always brings a smile. Use Omega-3-rich organic eggs from pasture-raised chickens if available. Any color of bell pepper will work, but try to select 4-point bell peppers instead of 3-point. They taste better.
bell peppers
olive oil
eggs
sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
fresh herbs
Garlic Cabbage Salad
Green Lemonade
A bright and restorative juice full of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients.
green apples
kale
celery

Grilled Pineapple
Happy Water
This idea was inspired by a refreshing foot bath at a lovely spa in Vietnam, and by the water containers in a hospital cafeteria in Hawaii. The variations are endless and really add a special touch to "ordinary" water.
thinly sliced fruits or veggies
mint or basil leaves
raspberries or sliced strawberries
ginger root
filtered water
Honeydew and Avocado Salsa
Indonesian curried bean stew
Fascinating flavors and festive colors characterize this hearty high-protein, high-fiber stew. This gets even better with time, so make extra and freeze it or use it the next day in another way or form.
onion
bell pepper
garlic
celery
fresh turmeric
fresh ginger root
coconut oil
kidney beans
diced tomatoes
chickpeas

Sesame Sand
Sprinkle this savory seasoning on salads, vegetables, whole grains, stews, noodles, beans, wraps, sandwiches or soups for a healthy flavor boost. It's packed with calcium and vitamins, including B12. This recipe yields about 1 cup.
unhulled sesame seeds
nutritional yeast
sea salt
Sesame Sugar Snap Peas
Smoothie Recipes During and Post Cancer Treatment
This recipe includes two different versions of smoothies. The steps are essentially the same, but the ingredients will vary depending on whether you're undergoing treatment or have completed it. The notes below include details on how I came up with each combination.

other seasonal fruits
whole milk
yogurt
ice cream
almond butter
protein powder
apple
banana

fruit smoothie blend
almond milk

other dry or wet ingredients
Soy-Lime Ahi
During my son's junior year in college, he suffered from terrible physical and mental health. He had terrible headaches, severe allergies, constant respiratory infections, poor digestion, and had many days when he couldn't get out of bed for his classes. He also had anxiety and depression. After lots of doctors, meds, he was finally diagnosed as severely gluten intolerant (and the college fast food and beer diet really ravaged his body and mind). He is still working through how to take care of himself as gluten is EVERYWHERE! His journey has taught our family how important diet is...you are what you eat!
soy sauce
lime juice
olive oil
garlic
ginger
brown sugar
ahi tuna
cilantro
Spicy Lentil and Bulgur Soup
This heartwarming soup is so delicious and simple to make that you will want to make it all the time. I learned how to make this soup at a cooking class in Turkey.

A delectable dip for vegetables, naan, pita, and chips, tzaziki’s complex flavor enhances most savory foods. Make sure you use only the best quality cornstarch-free gelatin-free yogurt (check label).
