Menu Suggestions

Menu suggestions are interchangeable for any meal. Shelley Young’s recipe book, Back

to the House of Healthã, is a great source for new experiments in the kitchen. It is full

of energizing, delicious recipes for Alkalarians to enjoy.

BREAKFAST:

Hot Millet Salad is a satisfying, tasteful combination of hot and cold. For each serving, bring one cup

of water and ¼ cup of millet to a boil, then cover and simmer for 25 minutes. Remove from pot and

place in a soup bowl. Cut ½ a tomato and ½ an avocado over the top of the millet. Add Bragg’s

Aminos, Flax Seed Oil, sliced almonds, and spices as desired.

Vegetable Soup can be made with green beans, celery, zucchini, yellow squash, carrot, bell peppers,

leeks, onions, garlic, cabbage, etc. Simply heat vegetable broth or water, add chopped vegetables, flavor

with spices (oregano, basil, parsley), and simmer until vegetables are slightly cooked/soft. Add Bragg’s

Aminos or Real Salt for flavor. Garnish with flax seeds, almonds or sunflower seeds.

Buckwheat Cereal with almond milk is quick and filling on a cold morning. Buckwheat groats, cracked

buckwheat, and cream of buckwheat are available at most health food stores.

Steamed Broccoli is a very energizing choice for breakfast. Lightly steam broccoli for 5 minutes. Add

chopped onion, slivered almonds, or sunflower seeds on top. Top with lemon juice and olive oil, or

Bragg’s Aminos if desired.

LUNCH:

Salads are a wonderful choice for any meal. Spinach or dark, leafy lettuce is best for salads. Be sure to

add lots of delicious, alkaline vegetables like: avocado, tomato, sprouts, cabbage, jicama, green or

purple onions, cucumber, celery, bell peppers, etc. For taste and variety, try salsa, hummus, or the

following dressing.

Basic Salad Dressing can be made ahead of time in a cruet, and stored in the cupboard. Mix 1/3 cup

fresh lemon juice, 1 cup virgin olive oil, ½ tsp. oregano, ½ tsp. cumin, ½ tsp. garlic powder, ½ tsp.

cayenne or The Zip (by Spice Hunter), and 1 Tbsp. Bragg’s Aminos. This is great on wraps, salads,

steamed vegetables, or as a dip for plain tortillas.

Veggie Wraps make a quick meal that is filling. Alvarado Street Bakery has a nice wrap made of

sprouted wheat. Begin with pesto or hummus spread, add sliced avocado, tomato, cucumber, spinach,

sprouts, black beans, or any vegetable of choice. Top with Bragg’s Aminos, garlic powder, The Zip, salsa,

or other spices as desired.

Madrid Gezpacho Soup can be made in the blender. Mix 3 large tomatoes, 2 cucumbers, 1 red pepper,

and 1 small jalapeno pepper. Add 1 quart of water, 3 Tbsp. Olive Oil, juice of 2 lemons, 1 tsp. ground

Cumin, and 2 tsp. Real Salt. Add garlic to taste. Blend in portions until smooth. Chill in refrigerator until

ready to serve. Garnish with celery, green onion, and avocado.

DINNER:

Stir-fry can be completed in 20 minutes, start to finish. Boil one package of Buckwheat Soba Noodles

according to directions. While cooking, stir-fry 1 chopped red pepper, 1 chopped onion, 1 cup broccoli or

asparagus, and other vegetables desired. Add a little Bragg’s and vegetable broth for seasoning. Stir fry

5 minutes, then add drained noodles. Add some olive oil, sesame seeds, garlic powder, and Stir Fry

Ginger by Spice Hunter. Stir together and eat!

Salmon, Trout, Sole, or Halibut may be eaten sparingly. Garnish grilled fish with sliced lemon and

serve with a generous portion of fresh vegetables or salad. Basmati or wild rice might be served on the

side, topped with sliced almonds.

Beans and Rice make a classic combo. Soak and cook dried pinto, kidney, garbanzo, lentils, or black

beans, and drain. In a pan, season beans with ground cumin, chilli powder, Real Salt, and garlic. Pour in

vegetable broth until beans are covered. Season with fresh parsley, chopped onion, pepper, and grated

carrot. Simmer until onions are cooked. Remove, then place each serving in a bowl with a scoop of

basmati rice. Top with fresh, chopped tomatoes and serve with salad.
