Beiler Broth

Serves 1-2 Beiler Broth is a simple fasting or cleansing broth that is high in the minerals needed to support a liver or cellular detox. Drink it everyday if you like. I substitute spinach for the original recipe’s green beans, as I do not promote beans and legumes on a detox. Dr. Henry Beiler was [...]

Chocolate Scream (with variations!)

Makes 1 quart For chocolate lovers only, this dairy-free, sugar-free delight has a much lower impact than commercial ice creams (even the dairy-free varieties). Using raw cocoa powder insures you can even take advantage of its famed anti-oxidant properties. 2 cups cashews or macadamia nuts, soaked in water to cover 30 minutes, drained 2 cups [...]

Galaxy Shake

Serves 1 adult or 2 kids This high energy, high protein smoothie keeps ‘em going for the long haul. Great for breakfasts, afterschool snacks or a pre-game power boost. Rich carob, almond butter and a splash of mint will get them on their way! 1 cup whole milk, soy milk or nut milk 1/2 cup [...]

Vanilla Scream (with variations!)

Makes 1 quart This is my basic dairy-free ice cream recipe. It’s rich and satisfying… but better yet… YOU decide how much sweetener to use. Experimentation with maple or brown rice syrup is encouraged. I’ve found that a combination of cashews and oat milk make the richest and creamiest dairy-free ice creams without starches, gums [...]

Honey-Mustard Tempeh in Zucchini Baskets

Makes about 18 appetizers These delightful little appetizers make a pretty presentation for summer parties. Crumbled tempeh is blended with a tangy mustard dressing with hints of caraway and dill. Shredded chicken, boiled egg or canned tuna can be substituted for the tempeh, if desired. DRESSING 6 tablespoons grapeseed mayonaisse or olive oil mayonnaise (in [...]

Strawberry Scream

Makes 1 quart A variation on my basic Vanilla Ice Cream recipe, this fruity frozen cup brings a smile to anyone who loves sweet, fresh berries in the summertime. Of course, any kind of local, fresh and seasonal berry (or a combination) can be used. 2 cups cashews or macadamia nuts, soaked in water to [...]

Curried Wheat Berry and Lentil Salad

Serves 6-8 Wheat berries are a delightful, chewy grain that have ample amounts of protein, especially when combined with beans. This is a mildly spicy summer salad with sweet undertones of honey and cinnamon. It get better over time, so make sure it has at least an hour (up to overnight) to soak up the [...]
