General kitchen advice

Buy Seasonal Food : Most food, from fruit to fish, has a season -a time when it is abundant and at its best. Knowledge about food's seasons was once essential to survival and became culturally ingrained over the centuries. Today, we have all but lost this accumulated wisdom, but it still matters! Buy local and seasonal to guarantee the best quality food you can get.


Kitchen Tip : Using a pressure cooker saves up to two-thirds of the cooking time, saves energy, and preserves the goodness in your food.


Try Eating Raw Food : You need a balance of three basic food groups as most of your diet:
  • sweet fruits (apples, oranges, berries, melons, etc.)
  • green leaves (dark lettuce, kale, collards, spinach, etc.)
  • raw plant fats (avocados, olives & their oil, coconuts & their oil, nuts & seeds, durian)
  • Eat lots of sweet fruit, lots of green leaves, and some fat (as dressing, pâté, hummus, etc.). Add vegetables as desired, and sprouted grains and legumes occasionally. Try fruit for breakfast and snacks; greens, veggies and fat for lunch and dinner.

Ingredients And Procedures
Ingredients
3tablespoonbutter, or margarine
1shreddies, cereal
1eachapple, granysmith or macintosh, cored
1tablespoonbrown sugar
1teaspooncinnamon

Directions:

Measure as much cereal as you want in your bowl (about 2 cups). Crush to fine crumbs in blender, or place in a plastic bag, hold it shut, and crush with the heel of your hand. Pour into medium mixing bowl. In a one-cup measure, microwave the butter on 100% power until melted; work butter into crumbs until mixture is moist and crumbly. Slice apple into thin, even slices, then place in microwave-safe, shallow baking dish. Spread cereal mixture evenly over apple slices. Microwave on 50% power 3 minutes, or until heated through and apple is tender. Sprinkle with cinnamon and brown sugar; microwave on 50% power 2 minutes longer. Serve hot with a little milk, a pat of butter or jam, or some fresh fruit.

Variations: Try banana slices in place of the apple. Also, substitute 1 tb your favorite jam for 1 tb of the butter. Stir the jam into the butter in the cup immediately after butter is melted. Try using an uncooked hot cereal, such as Cream of Wheat or Quaker Oat bran in place of the Shreddies, for a deliciously different porridge. Serve with whipped cream, ice cream or yogurt for dessert.
