Hey man, we had a lot of views to our little video on “popcorn”.
Thanks for all the nice comments.  Glad to hear that so many people are interested in eating more healthful foods.  Here’s a link to our video on how to make popcorn.

Anyone can be a healthy cook

Posted by Kristin Doyle on February 15th, 2009under Health Tips, Recipes

Glenn cooked me the most delicious, healthy meal last night for Valentine’s Day. And he did it all on his own, without recipes and without going to cooking school.  This is a man who when we first moved in together his idea of ‘cooking’ was to heat up a veggie burger, or maybe make some pasta with jarred tomato sauce. He has watched me cook a few things (like you can do by watching our videos -more coming soon-), and listened to me talk about which ingredients are better to use (like you will read here on my blog) and he has gradually transformed himself into a healthy cook.

Ok, so here’s what he made for me last night…

Basmati Brown Rice (no recipe, just cook 1 cup rice in 2 cups water with a 5-inch piece of kombu seaweed and a dash of salt.  we have a rice cooker, but otherwise on stovetop it takes 40 minutes).

Sauteed onion, green garlic, ginger, shiitake mushrooms, burdock, carrots and yellow squash.  Garnished with green onions.

Red Cabbage Salad marinated with Umeboshi plum vinegar and hot sesame oil.

Orange Juice and Mellow Miso Sauce (simply just whisk the two together until ‘gravy’ like).

Field Roast Seitan “Celebration Roast” – ok, this he bought and just reheated in a pan.

Homemade Kombucha (look for recipe beverage tag in another post).
