Salba Salad

1/16/10

Salba seeds are so nutritious, in fact, that Dr. Vuksan claims that just three ounces of Salba contains as much omega-3 as eating 28 ounces of salmon, as much calcium as drinking three glasses of milk, as much fibre as eating a cup of All-Bran, as much iron as 5 cups of raw spinach, as much vegetable protein as a cup of kidney beans, as much potassium as a banana and as much vitamin C as eating 7 oranges!

Combine

Steamed Quinoa
Salba seed
Mung bean sprouts
organic salsa
avocado
grape tomatoes

Mix and put Udo's oil on top.

Yummy Yummy lunch or breakfast

Try Sprouts

01/14/10

Try Sprouting. You can get great tray sprouters at Good Earth or any health food store. Today we put mung beans in our sprouter. You first soak your desired seeds overnight in water in the fridge and then rinse them morn and night for 2-3 days until they sprout. You can sprout all kinds of seeds and grains. We love to sprout our wheat for mana bread, sun seeds, quinoa, sunflower and there is also a good multi seed bean mix you can buy. Sprouting adds like 10 times the nutrient value. We love to snack on them and put them in our salads, soups and just as a side dish.


Another great grab snack we make sure to have is soaked almonds in the fridge. By soaking your almonds you increase the Oxygen content making them easier to digest. You can also make spreads, sauces and dressings with them. Many recipes in all the Ph Miracle books and the Back to the House of Health books.
