Common Sense Vegucation

Grow, Buy, & Eat organic veggies

  • Non-GMO a must. Look into heritage varieties.

  • Gently cook so veggies still have vibrant color and crisp texture. Yes, gone are the days of mushy, washed out colored veggies.

  • Grow your own? Keep your soil organically, bio-dynamically healthy. Skip the Miracle Gro® and other non-whole gardening additives. Whole foods & whole food vitamins feed your body’s “soil” best. Only feed the Earth’s soil with whole fertilizers, compost, etc.

  • Pull a carrot. Wipe the obvious dirt off. Eat without washing if your soil is chemical free / toxin free. Soil microbes (think probiotics) are in the soil.

  • Vibrant Soil = Vibrant Food = Vibrant Body Cells = Vibrant Whole Health

  • Prep veggies just before you are going to eat them or cook them. This preserves nutrients.

  • Steaming or light simmering veggies (remember, NO mush)? Use as little water as possible to retain nutrients in the food. Drain the cooking / steaming water into a mug, let cool, & drink. No more pouring nutrients down the drain. Don’t want to drink it? Save it for your house plant watering. Their soil needs nutrition too.

Summer Veggies & Cheese

July 28, 2016 Paula Youmell, RN

Summer time and the living (cooking & eating) should be easy. Produce is abundant everywhere. I advice growing your own or buying from your local farmer who gardens without the use of any chemicals. Summer enjoyment of the bounty needs to be fresh and in simple preparations so we can get back outside ASAP.  Grating and quick stir frying veggies is easy and a speedy way to get dinner on the table.

For last eve's quicky, get back outside dinner:

Signs of Fall in the Kitchen

October 17, 2014 Paula Youmell, RN

Some signs of fall, in my kitchen, are:

  • Squash, squash soup!
  • Root veggies of all shapes, colors, and flavors... yummy beets!
  • Brussels Sprouts (Create a soup with b. sprouts using the Kale soup recipe, roast the b. sprouts before pureeing into soup.)
  • Cabbage!

 

  • Sauerkraut... the crock has come out of its summer hiding spot:

          To make the first batch of fall sauerkraut, cabbage from the Martin's Farm Stand.

                           

                           

The close up, below, displays the green bits of parsley from my front yard herb garden, the green bits of stinging nettles harvested from my yard (I am assuming the sting will leave during the fermentation process much like it leaves during the cooking process), and the chunks of local apples from the Martin's.

I make sauerkraut because:

  1. Sauerkraut is good for gut microbes,
  2. I can use local cabbage and preserve it for weeks,
  3. It is quick and easy to make a batch that will be about 3-4 quarts (takes me about 30 to 40 minutes including clean up),
  4. and, after sitting for 10 to 14 days I have 3-4 quarts of food that will enhance meals and fall root veggie salads for 2-3 weeks.
  5. I have just enough time to ferment another crock with different goodies added to the cabbage: beets, carrots, celeriac, grated (raw) squash, parsnips, turnips, rutabaga.... before the current batch is gobbled up!

For a kraut recipe, click here. No crock to ferment in? No worries, use wide mouth ball canning jars.

Enjoy!

PS  I confess, I no longer use the hand grater (see my grating picture in my kraut recipe blog post that I linked above) to grate my veggies. I use my food processor. It cuts the prep time in less than 1/2!
