Vacation Is Over

Hi all, for various reasons I have taken a longer vacation from the blog than I had planned. 

I feel it is time to have some others post comments besides me. 

If you listen to a call and it is not reviewed, please send me some notes in an email to:  webmaster@lifestylesupport.org

Please include contact info, name, address, email, phone numbers, text numbers, etc. 

I am being forced to work extra hours of overtime during the call time.  I will not be able to be on the calls or listen to all of them.  

Please Help, Please.  If I don't get help I will forced to stop making posts to the blog.

Thanks,

Steve

Listen to June 5, 2013 Call   Betty moderated   Today we began the call talking about Monsanto and the marches that took place over the weekend and the lack of coverage in most areas.  We also mentioned that Dr. Fuhrman had been on the Dr. Oz show and that June is Men's Month at Dr. Fuhrman's.  In Dr. Fuhrman's newsletter he wrote about the benefits of lycopene as an extremely potent antioxidant.

The Nikken kick-off call was discussed and we were all delighted that the KVB promotion of selling 3 and get 1 free was extended until the end of 2013 and that the Joint has a new formulation for the U.S.

Today we started the call talking about the sourdough bread we've been making adding a few little tweaks to change flavoring such as Italian Seasoning.

Discussed a few recipes we have made and enjoyed such as the Vegetarian Times recipe for Chickpea Salad with Fennel and Artichokes,Mango, Avocado and Jicama Salad with Lime Dressing and Lemon Creme for topping on fruit, cake or pie.

Last but not least we spoke about Oregano being a very healthy culinary choice having powerful antioxidant and antibacterial properties. Char mentioned that she took Oregano oil capsules for a particular issue and was amazed at how quickly they worked. Jeannie gave us a website for a recipe for Tomato, Avocado, Quinoa Salad with cumin and cilantro.   michelledudash.com

Mango, Avocado, Jicama Salad with Lime Dressing

6 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 

4 1/2 Tablespoons fresh lime juice

1 1/2 teaspoons honey or agave

1/4 tsp. salt and pepper to taste

Shake vigorously in a jar until completely combined.

Taste and adjust if needed.

Store in fridge until ready to use .... Shake before pouring

 FOR THE SALAD

1/2 head dinosaur kale

6 oz. baby spinach

1 avocado

1/2 lb. jicama

2-3 mangos

1/2 lime, juiced

3-4 Tablespoons green onion, chopped

black sesame seeds, optional

Stem and chop kale and place in large bowl

Roughly chop the baby spinach and mix with the kale

Peel the jicama and slice into 1/4 inch matchsticks

Cube or slice mango, removing skin

Slice the avocado and toss with a bit of lime juice to prevent browning.

Right before serving toss the greens with 1/2 to 2/3 of the dressing coating well.

Top with avocado, jicama, and mango and drizzle more of the dressing over top.

Top with green onions and black sesame seeds and serve.

LEMON CREME

1 12.3 oz. pkg. reduced fat, extra-firm silken tofu, crumbled

1/3 cup light maple syrup or agave

3 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 Tablespoon grated lemon peel

I used a fork to kind of shred the tofu out of the container and into the bullet adding the rest of the ingredients and blending until completely smooth.

Refrigerate until chilled.
