General kitchen advice

One of the best elements of travelling is sampling local delicacies, so please don't order a burger and chips when you are in India - not only is the meat likely to be of a poor quality (sometimes so poor that it will make you sick), but you are turning down some of the most wonderful food in the world - and possibly offending your hosts.


Buy Local Food : As an ‘everything in moderation’ kind of guy, I’d find a strict local food diet fascinating but obsessive and intimidating, says Peter Marks, program coordinator for the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project in Asheville, N.C. He suggests a more gradual approach: Every week or month, replace one food in your diet that’s provided by a big, faraway company with a locally grown food.


Trying Organic Food : If you are sick, you might feel sicker temporarily, as your body dumps stored toxins (heavy metals, drugs, cooked-food residues) that overwhelmed it and accumulated over a lifetime. This is called detoxification. Take it slow-eat more raw fat or cooked starch to slow down detoxification, if needed. Your body has tremendous healing power. Give it time (months or years) to fully recover from years of abuse.

1 Teaspoon Dried oregano

1 Teaspoon Garlic powder

1 Env. low-sod. ckn bouillon

1/3 Cup Low-cal Italian salad dsg.

1/2 Cup White wine

1 Teaspoon Worcestershire sauce -- **

Spray crock inside with Vegetable Spray. Place drained mushrooms, drained artichoke hearts and chopped green onions in bottom of crockpot. Sprinkle vegetables with a heaping Tablespoon of quick-cooking tapioca and 1 envelope of chicken bouillon (I use MBT brand of low-sodium chicken bouillon, but any will do). If you're using granulated bouillon, use about a heaping teaspoon. Place well-washed and dried boneless chicken breasts (all skin and fat removed). Combine remaining sauce ingredients and pour on top of chicken and vegetables. Cover and set crockpot on High. Cook 5-6 hours or until tender. The tapioca thickens the sauce while it cooks (you can't even guess the tapioca is in there later). I used Minute Maid fresh frozen lemon juice because I don't like the taste of Real-Lemon and I didn't have a fresh lemon on hand. ** I use Angostura brand low-sodium worcestershire
