Food and cooking tips

Try Eating Raw Food : Your body needs time to adjust and clean itself. Start including more fresh fruit, green salad, and green juice in your meals. Cut back on meat, dairy products, and cooked starchy foods. Try eating all raw one day per week, then two days. Or eat only two cooked foods per meal, then only one. You'll feel the difference.


Microwave Tip : Use your microwave as often as possible in the summer. You'll be more comfortable and save on air conditioning costs.


Buy Local Food : It’s easy to take locally abundant foods for granted when they’re in season, but you can enjoy many locally produced foods out of season by stocking up. Storing big baskets of hazelnuts (in the Northwest) or pecans (in the Southeast) will come naturally if you start thinking like a squirrel. Look for foods that keep well, such as nuts, honey, winter squash and sweet potatoes and stock up.


Kitchen safety

Don't cook if you're affected by alcohol or prescription drugs.
If a deep fat frying pan catches fire don't move it (it could give you terrible burns).

Ingredients And Procedures

2 c Whole wheat flour

1 t Salt

1 t Baking powder

2 c Corn kernels, fresh or

Frozen 2 Chipotle chili peppers,

Diced 2 Cloves garlic, minced

4 Scallions, diced

1 c Lowfat soy milk

These delicious pancakes make a terrific dinner when served with a bottled salsa for topping. I use chipotle chili peppers that are canned in adobo sauce, but you can also use dried chipotles. Let the dried peppers soak in warm water for several minutes before you dice them. Mix whole wheat flour with salt and baking powder. In a separate bowl, mix corn, chipotles, garlic, scallions, and soy milk. Gently blend wet ingredients with dry until well mixed. Spray skillet with vegetable cooking spray and preheat until it is moderately hot. For each pancake, use about 1/4 cup batter. Cook 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
