I didn’t really like to cook until the last couple of years. I only did it out of necessity. We didn’t have the money to eat out but maybe 3 times a year. So most of my recipes came from asking for them at church dinners or friends houses, finding copy cat recipes on the internet, asking for family recipes, and changing them all to suit my tastes. Don’t pass up a recipe just because it may have something you don’t like in it. Just eliminate the offensive ingredient. It could end up being one of your favorites! Check out my recipes blog. All the recipes posted are tried and true. My family likes them or they don’t make it on the blog.
I was having a discussion with my friend today about eating on a budget. It occurred to me that I have a system for eating on a budget, but don’t have it organized on paper. So, here’s my attempt to get all my thoughts and habits down…for my benefit and yours. Don’t get overwhelmed reading it. Its much easier to do than it was to write. Start with the first step and work into it. You’ll find your own niche with it….things that work for you all while eating healthier and cheaper.
1. Make a menu. This is the most important step. Get out your cookbook and weekly grocery ads. Scan the ads for sale items for the menu. Jot down 5 or 6 main dishes and sides on an index card. Eat from your freezer for 1 or 2 meals.
2. Make a shopping list. Using the menu card think about each dish and decide what ingredients you need to make it. Write everything out in a notebook…noting which items are on sale at which store. Then organize the list onto another index card. Start with the first place you need to go…usually the bank for me. Note everything you need to get at that location. Don’t forget about the library, dry cleaners, thrift store…etc. Put each stop in order so you aren’t criss crossing all over town. As you make the list, categorize the items by where they’ll be in the store. Produce should all be listed together, dairy should be together, etc…so you aren’t wasting time criss crossing the store. NOTE: In warm weather, freeze a clean half gallon jug 3/4 full of water. Keep a cooler in the trunk and stash the frozen water in it when going out for groceries. Frozen and perishable foods will stay fresh that way. You’ll also have water on hand to drink when its hot out…so you’re not paying $2 or more for a soda at the drive-thru which makes you more dehydrated anyway.
3. Pay cash. Estimate how much cash you’ll need to purchase everything on the list. I add about $5 to the total to buy marked down meats for the freezer. Paying cash keeps you from overspending. Take a calculator with you if you’re worried about running out of money at the register.
4. Shop alone when you’re not hungry. I always spend at least $10 more than I plan to when I have any member of my family with me shopping. So I try to go alone when I can. When the kids were smaller I usually had to take them. I learned early on that its better to train children to be patient in the check out line than it is to bribe them with goodies or money. I got them involved getting the food off the shelves and looking for the next item. I always tried to have something on the grocery list they would like. Sometimes it was cookies but mostly cereal or crackers. Then, when they’re begging for candy in the check out line I could remind them of the good food we could eat when we got home.
Scientific studies show that shopping when you’re hungry causes you to buy more junk food.
5. Only shop once a week. Scientific studies showed that walking into a store more than once a week would cause you to spend 10-20% more than you budgeted for.
6. Prep everything when you get home. This is where a little self discipline will save you gads of time later in the week. Plan on putting away groceries and prepping food for about 30 minutes after you get home. Wash and cut veggies. Store them in bowls or baggies in the fridge. (Don’t cut cucumbers, tomatoes, or avocados until right before using.) Lettuce can be cut for salads and mexican food. Celery and carrots will stay crisp when stored in water in a covered bowl. Onions can be pre-chopped and stored in tightly wrapped tin foil until needed. Broccoli and cauliflower will keep well in baggies too. Invest in a food processor with grating and chopping blades. A 5lb block of cheese can be grated in a food processor in about 3 minutes. Add a little cornstarch to keep it from clumping up and store in a baggie in the fridge or freezer. I mix my cheeses in the bag too. Cheddar, provolone, mozzarella, parmesan…etc. We eat salads at dinner every week just by pulling out all the prepped veggies and letting everyone create their own salad straight from the bags. Divide up meat to be used in different dishes. Cut chicken breasts into tenders for faster cooking. Place a meal’s worth of meat in each baggie and add marinade or other seasonings. Make and season hamburger patties with a bit of waxed paper in between each patty in a baggie. Keep in the fridge until time to cook.
7. Cook “big” once a week…preferably the day of or day after shopping. I cook big once a week. This means I cook or combine all the meat and veges for all the meals for the week. I can start most meals and have them on the table in 10 to 15 minutes during the week by doing this step. Most foods will stay fresh for a week or more if kept at the proper temperature in the fridge. Plan on working in the kitchen for 1-2 hours when cooking “big”. Some of that time will be waiting for things to cook or cool. I find that cooking around lunch time works best for me. Its pretty quiet and I have the time to get everything done. If you work during the week, do this step on a Saturday or Sunday. I’ll make meatloaf, sloppy joes, meatballs, taco meat, baked potatoes, banana bread or muffins, broccoli or potato salad, etc. Any convenience foods you’d normally buy in the frozen or deli sections can be made ahead at home…without the food colorings and additives….and a lot cheaper too. Some things I plan for later in the week can be cooked and frozen so they’re still super fresh and soft….like baked goods.
8. Freeze foods for future use. When I can get something on sale I’ll buy it in bulk and freeze it. I do this a lot with meats and milk. I’ll buy 15# of hamburger to divide up for future use. Here’s an example…For meatloaf..using 1# of meat, line a bread pan with foil. Spray it with pan spray. Season the meat, place in the foil and freeze in the pan. Remove the foiled meatloaf from the pan and wrap tightly. Label and date. Thaw and bake as usual. For meatballs, using 5# of meat…place meatballs on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes or until barely done. Cool and freeze on a baking sheet. Move to a baggie, label and date. For tacos, enchiladas, beef quesadillas, beef burritos, taco salad, etc…using 5# of meat…cook hamburger with 2 onions until done. Drain off fat and add taco seasoning. Cool and divide into meal size baggies. Label and date. Using the remaining 4# of burger…for sloppy joes, hamburger gravy and biscuits, hamburger macaroni and cheese, chili, etc, place enough raw burger for a meal in a baggie. Label and date.
Poultry can be frozen in a brine to make it more tender and juicy. All meats can be frozen in marinade too.
9. Plan portable or quick foods for busy evenings. We have 3 evenings a week where we’re in the car during the dinner hour. Most of the time I pack wraps or sandwiches. I can make these ahead of time and put in a cooler in the fridge. I add a couple of refillable water bottles and a bag of chips or veggies and dip. Then I put a note on my purse to remember to take it with me. When you’re going to be home right around dinner time the crock pot and microwave are your friends! Its super easy to throw a roast or chicken on the crock pot in the morning. Then you aren’t tempted to grab fast food because there’s food already done at home. So many foods reheat well in the microwave too. Cook lasagna, enchiladas, slimies, or any type of casserole dish during your big cooking day and reheat when needed.
10.Find recipes for your favorite restaurant foods. I found that when I craved dishes from my favorite restaurants I’d spend more money eating out. Instead I’ve found suitable and much cheaper alternatives to make at home. For example, I can make General Tso’s chicken using chicken breasts, veggies, and a bottle of General Tso’s sauce. The sauce costs about $3.00 on sale…so, the whole dish costs about $6.00. Considerably cheaper than the Chinese place. The same is true of all Mexican and American foods, & most Chinese and Italian foods. Look for name brand sauces from some restaurants too. Taco Bell sells their sauce and refried beans in the grocery store. I used to buy my sweet and sour sauce from my favorite Chinese restaurant. They would sell me a pint of it for $3.00. Then, I could buy frozen egg rolls at Costco or Sam’s Club, and make the rest of the dishes. We could have 4 or 5 full Chinese dinners at home for the cost of one dinner at the restaurant. Google in something like…”Olive Garden fettuccine alfredo copycat recipe” and see what you come up with. Then, don’t be afraid to try a few recipes.

On May 16th, members of TMG (Luisa Spragg, Morgan Yam, Rusty Cook, Jack Piemonte, and Gia Parrott) and their families enjoyed Saturday’s sunny weather by volunteering their time at JK Community Farm‘s Spring Plant-a-thon.
The 150-acre nonprofit farm is designed to alleviate hunger and promote food education. JK Community Farm donates all crops grown to food pantries across Northern Virginia. The weather was beautiful, and the group worked hard planting rows of onions and corn.

Lemon is one of the fruits with high medical value in the world. It is rich in vitamin C, sugar, calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, citric acid, malic acid, high potassium, and low sodium, which are very beneficial to the human body. The nicotinic acid and rich organic acid in lemon have a strong bactericidal effect.
Orchitis is usually caused by bacterial or virus infection, so taking lemon juice has a certain auxiliary effect on orchitis. The high concentration of vitamin C is helpful in reducing cystine of protein in food to cysteine, promote the formation of antibodies, enhance the immune function of the human body, which is also very beneficial to the recovery of patients.
1. When cooking red cabbage, add a spoonful of lemon juice to make the color red.
2. When cooking shrimp, add a little lemon juice to remove the fishy smell of shrimp, and the taste is better.
3. When using edible oil, add a few drops of lemon juice to remove the smell of edible oil, especially the smell of fried fish oil.
4. When cooking meat, add lemon juice to the meat, which can eliminate the fishy smell and make the meat taste earlier.
5. Add a little lemon juice to the vegetables with a strong smell, such as onions, to reduce the peculiar smell.
6. Add a few drops of lemon juice into the egg white to thicken it.
7. Use lemon juice instead of salt to taste. Drop a few drops of lemon juice into fresh vegetables or meat.
8. When making the cake, add a little lemon juice into the protein, which will not only make the protein appear particularly white, but also make the cake easy to cut.
9. When lemon juice is used in cooking, it can not only effectively reduce the fishy smell of food and the peculiar smell of food itself, but also reduce the loss of vitamin C in raw materials.
10. Wash the lemon, slice it, and remove the seeds. According to the proportion of 1kg lemon slice and 2kg sugar, use the method of one layer of lemon and one layer of sugar to put it into a porcelain jar or bottle and seal it tightly. Drink it after one week (salt can be used for diabetics, the same method as sugar, salt consumption is 25-30% of lemon)
Although vitamin C also has some anti-inflammatory effect, its effect on orchitis is relatively weak, it can only play an auxiliary treatment role, and can not be used as the main treatment for orchitis. In addition, oxalic acid is the final important product of vitamin C catabolism in the body.
Oxaluria can be formed by taking too much vitamin C for a long time to form urinary calculi. Patients with orchitis can choose to take certain cephalosporin, penicillin, gentamicin, and other drugs for treatment, while keeping a balanced diet, ensuring the intake of fresh vegetables and fruits, and you can also take certain vitamin C.
However, in order to prevent patients from using antibiotics to produce side effects such as drug resistance, traditional Chinese herbal medicine can also be selected for treatment, such as the common Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill.
It has the effects and functions of diuretic, heat-clearing, and detoxification, promoting blood circulation and removing stasis, and killing bacteria It can play a stable and complete therapeutic effect on orchitis.

Fast & Easy Roasted Veggies
I absolutely LOVE roasting veggies like this. You can grill them too, but I live in PA, where the weather is wacky half the year and freezing for much of the rest of the year, so grilling isn't always fun. This way, I can munch year-round!
TOTAL TIME: 10 minutes prep, 20-30 minutes roasting
SERVING SIZE: depends on the amount of veggies
Easy-to-Make, Easy-to Adapt Chili
So I'm terrible at planning ahead and following recipes to the 1/4 tsp. I just don't often make time for it. Thus, I end up with a lot of meals that are easy to adapt to whatever stuff happens to be in my pantry.
This chili is incredibly fast AND easy AND adaptable AND was kid-approved - and my kids are not always non-green bean fans. They also don't like a lot of spice, so I just add as much as they'll handle, but feel free to add as much as you like! It's a fairly thick chili, so you could use it for nachos, taco salad, tortillas, etc.
TOTAL TIME: 30 minutes
1. Cook ground meat until no longer pink in the middle. Drain off as much fat as possible, and crumble meat.
2. Stir in remaining ingredients (tomatoes, beans, pumpkin, seasonings).
3. Serve over rice or pasta or with cornbread, if desired. If you want to make as a nacho dish, serve over tortilla chips with your favorite toppings (lite or fat free sour cream, hot peppers, lettuce, salsa, etc.), if desired. Could be used as a tortilla filler or on a salad with corn, rice, salsa, sour cream, etc. Enjoy!

-In UERJ the project integrates the research line “Policies, knowledge and practices in Food, Nutrition and Health” Program Graduate in Food, Nutrition and Health NUT (PPG ANS) that develops the academic Master's courses and doctoral recommended with concept 4 by CAPES.
-In ULisboa the project integrates the Research Group on ‘Systems and Policies, Practices and Rationalities of Health’ in CAPP / ISCSP.
Project Main Goals:
The aim of this Project is the construction of conceptions on healthy food in contemporary societies where global change occurs in a fast pace. It concerns specifically Brazil and Portugal.
It aims to understand the polyphony of the multiple messages disseminating conceptions of healthy food and its relation with identity codes and food habits, in the scope of food, public Policies and culture.
Hypothesis is that the production of conceptions on healthy food follows a strategy of food ‘bricolage’ contributing to consumption, to identity codes and also to public policies.
It covers three lines of research under the theme of healthy food:
- Meanings constructed through food habits;
- Managers perceptions on promotion of healthy food and food safety;
- Dissemination of healthy food conceptions through marketing and publicity.


How Food Testing Plays a Huge Role in the Food industry
Today more than ever, the food industry needs a solid quality management system, unbiased information as well as food testing that gives accurate results. Food testing is one of the most critical steps in the food manufacturing process as it indicates the confirmation of safety for use. It is this that plays a huge role in the survival of a food business in the long term as well as keeps it safe from legal scrutiny.
In this blog, you are going to discover the many answers to:
- What is food testing?
- Why is it necessary?
Let’s get started!
What is Food Testing?
Food testing plays a vital role in the production of good, valuable and harmless food products.
The food industry today is in dire need of an inspection as adulteration is a prevalent phenomenon in the food industry and testing ensures that good quality food products are produced to protect public health as well as the safety of consumers.
Therefore, food testing becomes crucial and plays a significant role.
Why Does Food Need Testing?
Food testing and analysis helps in providing food manufacturers with traceability in their industry and also be sure that their food products are safe, do not contain any contaminants, residues or bacteria as well as provide accurate nutritional information to consumers.
Here is how testing benefits the food production business:
- Customers: Protects and guaranteed prevention to customers from food-borne diseases.
- Manufacturers: Assures product safety, approval to enter the market, and aids in brand reputation which in turn, leads to an increase in business ventures.
Techniques that take place in a food testing laboratory:
- Analytical chemistry testing: This helps to identify, separate and even find the quantity of the chemical components of natural and artificial materials in the food product such as pH, additives, nutrients, preservatives, contaminants, minerals and much more.
- Microbiology testing: This food testing helps food manufacturers identify the microorganisms that inhabit the food and understand the safety of the raw materials used in food production, ingredients as well as the final product. This is also used to test and examine spoiled pathogens to prevent food poisoning outbreaks that are generally caused by the products and the ingredients used in the products. This is also a necessity otherwise the whole supply chain can be contaminated and disrupted in the process of food production, leading to not only a danger to the general public but also a hefty loss of money.
- Food allergen test: Food allergens are proteins that appear in huge quantities. It helps to find the main target allergen in the ingredients and finished food product. Normally allergens are tested in food products such as peanuts, gluten in grains, eggs, nuts and milk, etc.
- Nutritional analysis: This area in food testing provides accurate information on the nutritional content of food products. This gives manufacturers the required details to include it on food packaging and ensure that they are following all compliances and labelling regulations.
Note: Another important thing to remember is that different countries have different compliances and regulations, so it is crucial for food manufacturers to be fully aware of these before they initiate distribution there.
Why Green Solution for Food Testing?
At Green Solution, we have both the management and technical expertise as well as use effectively-calibrated and the most advanced equipment for reports that provide consistently reliable and accurate results.
What sets us apart from the rest:
- Commitment to quality testing
- Certified and highly skilled laboratory technicians
- Every test is under strict confidentiality, honesty and is a value for money.
- Customer-focused and impeccable reputation
Remember, if any food business is caught violating FSSAI regulations of food safety and hygiene or even making any false nutritional claims, the law levies upon them either a huge fine or stripping away their business license. Thus, rigorous food testing is the best way to ensure the quality and safety of a food product before it hits the market and is the only certain way your business can succeed in the long run.

This recipe for Loaded Vegetarian Nachos is something meat eaters and vegetarians can enjoy together. No matter who they’re rooting for. So, your Meatless Monday can still be meatless. Even if you’re knee deep in basketball games and party guests.

Pronto On Flinders Restaurant Website
I’ve been buying my coffee twice a day at Pronto On Flinders for the last few years, and because I’m such a coffee nut, I’ve been doing it because Ele and his team simply make the best coffee in Melbourne. I know that’s only an opinion, but they make it just the way I like it. Consistently.
Somehow the topic of websites came up in conversation, and before I knew it, Ele was asking me to build a site for him.
Not only did he want the standard type of restaurant content – menus, food images, the ability to book tables and functions easily etc, but he also wanted a way to allow customers to easily order their coffee and food, to be ready to pick up at a designated day and time.
And he wanted the system to be easily used by his busy team using an iPad interface.
So that’s what we did – now you can order coffee or meals from your mobile, and they’ll be ready when you walk in the door.
You can see the website here: http://prontoonflinders.com


Pomegranate lovers know it's hard to eat. You can overcome this difficulty while still gaining health advantages by drinking pomegranate juice. This juice tastes great alone or in cocktails and teas.
Fresh pomegranate juice may aid type 2 diabetics, according to studies. In diabetic males, pomegranate juice and aerobic exercise reduced type 2 diabetes risk.
Pomegranates are a source of potassium, which is one nutrient that is important when supporting heart health.
Pomegranate juice contains an antioxidant called anthocyanin, and consumption of this antioxidant is linked to a reduced risk of developing certain cancers
Staying hydrated is crucial. Hydration is essential to health, according to Nutrients, and research links it to cognitive, renal, and weight control.
There's another potential outcome that can come from pomegranates having such a high antioxidant content—they may help fight against inflammation.
More recent research shows that a glass of pomegranate juice may slow visual memory declines in older adults, but did not improve other memory and cognition markers compared to a placebo.

I like baking, as it can be something that does not involve any computers. Please have this recipe for cornbread, based on buttermilk and baked in a skillet. As for baking goes, this recipe is quite forgiving and you don’t need to watch ratios as closely as with others.
This is for a 20cm (8") skillet, which gives you enough bread for you and one other person to enjoy over a weekend. For a 25cm (10") skillet - double the amounts. It’s best to use a cast iron skillet as it has enough thermal mass to take pouring cold batter into it and still be reasonably hot afterwards. Flour and cornmeal volume measurements are for flour poured into a cup.
1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil
150ml all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons melted butter
- Put the veggie oil in the skillet, put the skillet in the oven, preheat to 200C. This takes a while and gives you time to prepare the batter. The oil shouldn’t smoke.
- Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl, mix well.
- In another bowl whisk eggs and then melted butter into the buttermilk. No need for any extensive whisking, just to combine well.
- Make sure your oven came to temp.
- Pour wet ingredients into the dry, mix well. Acid from the buttermilk will start to react with bases from the baking soda and powder leavening the mixture. Do not overmix and work reasonably quickly, to not lose the bubblage. The resulting batter should be thick, barely pourable.
- Take the hot skillet out of the oven, make sure the oil is spread evenly.
- Pour the batter onto the hot skillet, most of it should pour but the last of it you may need to transfer using a spoon. Even out the surface, but don’t be too pedantic about it.
- Put the skillet back into the oven, reduce heat to 185C
- Bake for around 20-30 minutes, it does not burn easily, you can put it under a broiler for few minutes at the end if you want more brownage. The time needed does not change as much with the volume.
- After baking you can keep it in the skillet, or take it out. It does not need to release much moisture, but also should come out pretty easily when fully baked.

Batkid Saves San Francisco
A boy’s wish to be Batman inspired thousands of volunteers to help turn the streets of San Francisco into Gotham City today.
Five-year-old Miles, aka Batkid, has been fighting Leukemia since he was a baby. The Make-a-Wish Foundation helped organize an entire day catered to the caped crusader. Miles, whose cancer is in remission, rode in a Batmobile, rescued a damsel in distress and helped police capture the Riddler and the Penguin. San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee even gave Miles a key to the city.

So Much Parsley, So Little Thyme Burger
All beef burger served rare dressed with a mixture of garlic, olive oil, tomatoes, gruyere cheese, and of course PARSLEY! Served with a time salad…
Okay, I know. I screwed up! It’s supposed to be so much Fennel, so little Thyme. But I messed it up and was hungry. Deal with it.
I diced up some parsley garlic and tomatoes and mixed them in some olive oil and pepper. Then I added a few small bits of Gruyere for color. I cooked the burger on high heat till and added some long Gruyere slices. Growing up with my moms french onion soup - I developed a serious love for Gruyere cheese. I threw the parsley mix on top and voila! Delicious
Absolutely great flavor to this burger. Needed nothing else at all. The parsley was potent and the gruyere gave it that unique earthiness.

Carlsbad is an old village that dates back to the 1880s. That’s why it is so inspiring to see that it has remained true to its quaint, village roots while also welcoming some modern additions.
Baba Coffee (2727 State St.) just opened its doors to village locals and visitors alike. With a steel garage door front that rolls up to bring the exceptional Carlsbad weather inside, the new coffee outpost, complete with Spanish tiles and open-beam ceilings, is bright, open and spacious. Yet somehow, amid the modern technology and innovation, it all feels quaint, like it has been part of the village from the very start.
The Carlsbad Farmers’ Market, like an old friend, has been an integral part of the village since 1994. For more than 20 years, fresh produce and artisan foods have been part of the village fabric. To keep it relevant, though, the market now offers specialty items fit for the times, such as kimchi, kombucha, vegan croutons, gluten-free pasta, and greenhouse-grown, hydroponic vegetables. The market now also offers a quarterly “Shop with the Chef Dinner” for the most discerning foodies who want to learn how to bring the treasures found at the market right to their dinner table.
Several new restaurants will soon be calling Carlsbad home. Barrel Republic, Campfire, Succulent Cafe and the Blue Water Grill will all be opening this fall, with Campfire possibly opening in late September. They are all meeting a niche in the village by offering innovative food and drink and creative open spaces, but they are blending into the village tapestry as if they’ve been here forever, with plans to stay a very long time. The future bodes well for the village.
From beaches and theaters to fine dining and taco shops, Carlsbad Village is worthy of being called your North County destination of choice.


“Let them eat cake” is the most famous quote attributed to Marie Antoinette, the queen of France during the French Revolution. As the story goes, it was the queen’s response upon being told that her starving peasant subjects had no bread. Because cake is more expensive than bread, the anecdote has been cited as an example of Marie-Antoinette’s obliviousness to the conditions and daily lives of ordinary people. We can’t prove if Queen Marie Antoinette really said that centuries ago, anyway today the question is similar.
It is becoming more and more apparent that fibre is probably the most critical macro-nutritional gap in the world. As a result, customers and manufacturers are looking for products with increased levels of dietary fibre to deliver commercial benefits and health outcomes. It has been proven that increasing the intake of dietary fibre by individuals, in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle, will help reduce the incidences of diseases such as diabetes, obesity and some cancers, so how can we increase the fibre in our diet without upsetting the body’s natural balance?
Breads and baked products are a staple of many diets across the Globe. In the recent years, an upward trend in bakery products with increased nutritional value, such as fibre-enriched products, has been observed. Examples of baked goods that can benefit from the addition of fibre are as far reaching as pizza and bread to chapatis and parathra. As a major component of so many diets, a small increase in fibre across a range of bread products could deliver a significant health benefits and easily deliver and extra 5 – 10g of fibre into the diet.
In addition there is a burgeoning interest in healthy diets to try and address GI concerns. Two prime examples of are the low FODMAPS diet developed by the team at Monash University Melbourne, and gluten free diets. This is an area where Five10 fibre can play a significant role to deliver high fibre low FODMAP bread solutions.
Sugarcane is probably the largest crop in the World, with global production now estimated to be in excess of 1.5 trillion tons per year. Sugarcane bagasse is the main by-product generated during the processing of granular sugar, and currently has limited use in value add applications. Five10Fibre is a naturally-occurring source of dietary fibre from sugar cane. This functional food ingredient is derived from the fibre-dense parts of the sugar cane plant, using a proprietary production process. Sugar cane fibre is prized as a form of nutrient-rich, insoluble, non-fermentable fibre with a high fibre content, and the clinical work being varied out by the team at Tamu is starting to uncover just how beneficial sugar cane fibre can be.
In its natural state, it is neutral in colour and mild tasting, and it can be milled into a fine flour to suit customers’ requirements. Five10Fibre is suitable for a wide range of food and beverage applications, but is particularly well suited for high fibre bread applications where avoiding gluten and maintaining a low FODMAP product is key. It can also deliver functional benefits around shelf life extension and fat replacement of up to 50%, due to its optimal water and oil binding capabilities.

This blog is by Debra, we made a commitment to each other to improve our diets.
Mike and I are working to reform our diets. We think there is a lot more we can do to help lower inflammation in our bodies and in Mike’s case his brain. There are reasons that the Mediterranean diet is looking more and more appealing. Here’s why.
Some of the foods we are eliminating will be most of our red meat. Most of us have read articles written about why we should eat red meat. What I’m finding for people with Alzheimer’s is that red meat can cause iron to build up in the brain and might cause a good thing like myelin (fatty tissue that coasts nerve fibers) to be destroyed. I’m pretty sure that Mike needs his brain to communicate as efficiently as possible. We’ll be eating red meat once a week.
The Mediterranean diet uses more whole grains and beans to help fill in the protein slot. I think we will be seeing more nuts in our diet as well. Soy products, like tofu, which I love and Mike is so-so about, will be used a lot more. Cook books have been ordered to help with flavor and texture. I’ll let you know how it’s going as we incorporate this more into our every day eating!
Mike will be also adding pure DHA into his power beverages every day. There are a lot of reasons to add DHA to our diets and now with the addition of Alzheimer’s to the list of reasons we have a growing reason to add DHA into both of our diets. We’ve all read about Omega-3 fatty acids. The DHA we ordered is vegetarian DHA, straight from the algae that the fish eat which gives us our Omega oil. Think of salmon, mackerel, tuna, sardines, these are the fish that are rich in Omega-3. We are going to be adding more fish to our diet but we will also be adding DHA in its pure form.
Other foods we will be eating more of include fish of all kinds, whole grains, dark leafy vegetable, low fat dairy, peppers, tomatoes, beets, ginger, turmeric, garlic, onions, olive oil, berries of all kinds and tart cherries. Once I started looking at the Mediterranean way of cooking I could see that it incorporates most of this list. I’m going to love it and Mike is going to learn to love it!!!
We invested some money into a Vita Mix blender. We plan to start our day with a power drink. Today we started with pomegranate juice, a whole peeled orange, lime and a mango. Once we get the DHA we ordered I will be adding that to the drink. We can add protein power as well once we fully understand what we’ve got with this Vita Mix! Dark veggies will be added to this mix as well. I don’t think we can eat too much of the dark leafy vegetables.
Mike might struggle with the veggie part in the beginning so if I can disguise the flavor a bit he will eat it without too much of a fuss. I found a great recipe for garlicky white beans and kale. It looks good to me but Mike may have a different opinion! I think we will be making a dietary change over in baby steps!
We’ll see how he does but I’m thinking it might take a while to fully make a change over in our diet. I can see the benefits so clearly. Mike is very energetic about the change. Every day we will be adding something new into our diet. We’ll see how it goes! I am very optimistic! I will try to blog every so often on how we’re doing. Giving up hamburgers may be more difficult than we know. But we won’t know until we give it a try!
The cookbooks I’m using are authored by Paula Wolfert. She has written nine cookbooks on Mediterranean cooking. Paula was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s herself in 2013. She was on the National Early-Stage Advisor Group in 2014. I picked her books after watching a video in which she is featured. She is an inspiration to both Mike and me for her enthusiasm to learn as much as she can about Alzheimer’s so that she could better help herself and others who have the disease. I’m eager to get started!

Closest Underground Station: Oxford Circus or Goodge Street Station
Opening Hours: (Tues-Fri) 4 - 22:30pm, (Sat-Sun) 12 - 22:30
Tired of Asian food in Chinatown? For me, I have a knack for wanting to try different types of food and get to know people from all over the world. At the same time, being a student, I am always on the hunt for something reasonable to eat in London. Last week, I found a place that met my criteria. With a Kazakh and a Kyrgyzstani joining us, they led me to Assorti Delivery, for some mid-range “Russian and Central Asian cuisine”.
Set aside from the chaotic jumble of tourists and shoppers, this café is located on a quiet street off Oxford Circus. A pleasant-looking waitress welcomed us, her second customers on this sleepy Saturday afternoon. Unlike its grey exterior, the interior is simple and bright. For those who are particular, the Food Standards Agency UK has given Assorti a ‘Generally Satisfactory’ (3) rating on its hygiene.
We had tables closest to the little counter by the door. I was also sitting close to the big television screen where a continuous playlist of cheezy Russian pop played throughout our meal. On the walls were framed photos of the Astana (Kazakhstan’s capital), the statue of ‘Worker and Kolkhoz Woman’ in Moscow and the canals of St Petersburg. These photos served as small reminders of the dishes’ origins. Assorti boasts of its “mamma-used-to-cook food” and its “flag-waving national dishes” throughout the former Soviet Union. I didn’t think the interior conveyed homeliness successfully but I believed their priorities were on takeaway and delivery services.
The menu was not difficult to read as it was in English and each dish was described well. There were several starters and mains but only two desserts. In the end, I went for two starters. When it came to ordering food, the waitress knew very little English so my Kyrgyzstani friend had to order in Russian.
While waiting, we were given a plate of Russian bread, cut thickly and served. It was dark and sour-tasting, almost reminding me of rye bread but the Russian bread was slightly sweeter. Its crust was slightly tough but the rest of the bread was fairly dry and easy to eat. Complimentary pots of sour cream were given to us to spread over the bread like butter. The sour cream combated the dryness and added some flavour to the bread.
We didn’t have to wait long for the Starters. I had my Seledka Pod Shuboi (£5.95) - a traditional salad layered with herring, boiled potatoes, carrots, beetroot dressed with mayonnaise and topped with shredded egg. One bite and the tangy, fishy taste dominated the neutral taste of egg and beetroot. If you enjoy salmon roe or caviar, this salad is for you. The mayonnaise dressing on the beetroot also added a creamy texture to the salad. The deep red colour of the beetroot was striking against the shredded egg. As intended, this salad was made to look like a cake with its play with layers, shape and bright colours. Overall, the salad was cool and smooth in the mouth. For a smaller stomach like mine, one starter would have sufficed.

The other starter I ordered was the Borsch (£5.95), a traditional Ukrainian soup with cabbage, beetroot, tomatoes, potatoes, carrots, sweet peppers and onions slowly cooked in a beef broth. It came in a large soup bowl. The reddish-purple soup was fragrant and light in the mouth. Of course, sour cream was served alongside it. Adding in the sour cream made the soup creamier and more flavourful. I was struck by the Russians’ love of mayonnaise and sour cream. Seemed like a lot of their dishes used bland dairy like an addictive spice. The salad and soup were definitely enough for me. I even ended up sharing the Borsch with my housemate.
The Mains came in with the Starters as requested. As expected, the mains were considerably bigger. If you are a guy, the mains should be enough. My boyfriend ordered a plate of Manty (£10.95), a traditional Central Asian dish. The plate had five huge dumplings like oversized chinese wantons! Each dumpling was stuffed with shredded beef and onions, apparently handmade and steamed. The dumplings did resemble wantons but they were made thicker and harder. I tried half a dumpling and its skin tasted more like chewy lasagne sheets but the beef and onions complimented the flat-tasting skin. However, the flavour could be enhanced yet again by adding sour cream or paprika-based adzhika sauce.
|The inside of a Manty is filled with beef and onions|
Another main dish ordered was the Kotleti (£9.95). This dish comprised of baked beef, ground and shaped into frikadeller. This was complimented by buckwheat and mushroom sauce over the beef. Given the plainness of the buckwheat, the beef acted to brighten the dish as a whole. I frequently noticed this little push-and-pull between savoury and plain tastes in Russian food. Sour cream seemed like the crown of toppings, even used like ‘whipped cream’ on a sweet mini dumpling dessert filled with cherry compote (served at Mari Vanna)! When we were looking at the two desserts served at Assorti, the descriptions of the Honey Cake (£4.95) and Napoleon Cake (£4.95) came over too deadly sweet for our tastes.
|Kotleti with its beef and buckwheat|
Overall, the prices were very reasonable compared to the expensive Russian restaurant Mari Vanna at Knightsbridge. If you would like to try something unusual, inexpensive and tasty, Assorti would be able to beat the hunger pangs. For someone who isn’t keen on sour cream and mayonnaise, Russian and Central Asian food just might not be for you. Luckily at Assorti, they may separate out the sour cream or mayonnaise depending on the dish. Other than that, I would definitely go again if I ever get bored of Chinatown food. I highly recommend the Seledka Pod Shuboi, for those who love the strong taste of fish.
Until next time!


Disclaimer: I am no chef! haha
But I love making healthy delicious meals for my family, and you already know I adore photography! So when I took my sweet littles to our local U Pick, I couldn’t resist documenting some of our yummy dinner creations with my trusty ole camera.
In case you missed it, here is the blog post from last Thursday when I took my sweet babes to the 710 U Pick in Indiantown, Fl. We picked so many GORGEOUS veggies that day, and they are still beautifully fresh and vibrant after a week. I’m pretty sure my kiddos believed that veggies bloomed fresh from the supermarket shelves before this introduction to where things really come from.
To me there is something so special about showing my children the hard work and tender loving care that comes with growing your own food. My (now) 4 year old was amazed at the eggplants and tomatoes. He was so excited to place them in our bag as I told him what we were going to make at home.
He actually ate the egg plant parmesan because he remembered how he picked them himself. I also utilized his cheese spreading skills as we made this super yummy dish. I love seeing him proud of himself as he helps me in the kitchen.
Enjoy the photos below, and check out those gorgeous farm fresh egg plants that we picked! Yum! See recipe below!
3 egg whites
3 tablespoons water
1 cup fine dry breadcrumbs (I love to use the 4C brand bread crumbs, unseasoned)
½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, divided
½ teaspoon salt ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
¼ cup slivered fresh basil leaves
3 cups tomato sauce. I add about 2 tbs of italian seasoning and one diced tomatoe to the sauce for extra
texture and flavor
¾ cup grated part-skim mozzarella cheese
Heat oven to 400 degrees, coat baking sheet with small amount of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Thinly slice eggplant, about 1/4 inc thick. Wisk egg whites and water together, then dip eggplant slices in the mixture. Combine breadcrumbs, ¼ cup of the Parmesan, salt and pepper, then coat eggplant slices. Arrange the eggplant slices onto baking sheet in single layers for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. I usually bake mine for about 20 minutes, because I love the extra crunchy and extra golden!
Stir basil into tomato sauce. Spread about ½ cup of the sauce in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Arrange half of the eggplant slices over the sauce, overlapping slightly. Spoon 1 cup of the remaining sauce over the eggplant and sprinkle with half of the mozzarella cheese. Add a layer of the remaining eggplant slices and top with the remaining sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan. Bake, uncovered, until the sauce bubbles and the top is golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
Some of these suggestions I got from Eating Well and their healthy eggplant parm recipe. I like to make little ‘tweaks’ when I’m cooking. It always makes it better and I can customize it to my families’ taste! Happy Eating!


Top 10 coffee brands on the market in 2019
Coffee is one of the most popular drinks in the world, mainly due to its caffeine content which has a stimulating effect. Many studies show that coffee improves your memory, mood, alertness, mood, and energy level, just to name a few. There is no evidence of long-term health benefits of coffee consumption in humans yet, though. The drink is prepared from roasted coffee beans. Coffee plants are primarily cultivated in the equatorial regions of the world, with C. arabica and C. robusta as the two most typically grown. Dried coffee seeds (commonly referred to as “beans”) are roasted to varying degrees with each degree resulting in a distinct flavor. With one-third of the world total coffee production, Brazil is the key player in the sector. Coffee, green and unroasted, is among the most traded agricultural commodities in the world. As coffee cultivation progresses and extends rapidly to developed countries, it raises concerns over the coffee production impact on the environment, regarding the clearing of lands and water use. All these concerns create markets for fair trade and organic coffee, which is particularly visible in the USA coffee market. In our list, we will include information about certificates as well. 1. Introduction

They grow and process their own coffee beans in Colombia, but also closely monitor the production of coffee grown on nutritious volcanic soil in South America, and smaller coffee farms in prestigious regions of Asia, Indonesia, India, and Africa.

2.4 Peet’s Coffee
logo owner: Peet’s Coffee Peet’s Coffee is an American coffee roaster and retailer founded by Alfred Peet. Peet learned how to roast and grind coffee from his father who owned and operated a coffee bean grindery and coffee wholesale. In 1966, Peet opened the first “Peet’s Coffee, Tea & Spices” in Berkeley, California, initially selling just coffee beans. In 2012, Peet’s was sold to JAB Holding, a German investment group. Over the years, Peet’s has acquired three subsidiaries, Stumptown Coffee Roasters, Intelligentsia Coffee & Tea, and Mighty Leaf Tea. In 2007, the company opened a roasting plant in Alameda, the first LEED Gold Certified roastery in the United States. Dark roasts have been Peet’s signature since its early days. The brand offers the best dark roast coffee in the world since Peet’s still roasts coffee by hand. Arabica coffee roasted this way gives a richer and deeper taste with smoky notes. Peet’s offers various coffee roasts, grinds, types, and brewing methods, as well as Bottled Cold Brew, and then also a nice selection of teas. Peet’s coffees are also sold in as many as nine different pack sizes! That way, every coffee lover will get the exact amount of coffee beans they need. Another smart move is that Peet’s provides the roast date on the package which guarantees the coffee’s freshness. Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not display any certification on its packaging.

2.5 Kicking Horse
logo owner: Kicking Horse Kicking Horse Coffee has been making delicious coffee “that kicks ass” for over 20 years. Not only that, their coffee is certified as Organic and Fairtrade. The company is also committed to being sustainable and socially responsible for future generations. These might be the reason why they were named Canada’s #1 selling Whole Bean coffee.

Country of origin: Canada Year of foundation: 1996 CEO: Elana Rosenfeld Owner: Lavazza Sector: Coffee
2.6 Death Wish Coffee Co.
logo owner: Death Wish Coffee Although being around for only seven years (!), the Death Wish brand does not need to be introduced these days, and it is all because of the skillful marketing. The brand claims to be the World’s Strongest Coffee, promoting itself with a skull and crossbones logo, and it has worked! The name says it all; the Death Wish Coffee contains an excessively high — about four times higher — caffeine content than regular coffee does. And so, the brand is here to serve those who appreciate extra strong coffee. For their Death Wish coffee, they use carefully selected, mostly the Indian and Peruvian coffee beans in their coffee. Besides their best-promoted coffee, the company also offers a weaker Valhalla Java blend from the volcanic soils of Indonesia and nutrient-rich soils of Central and South America. The brand has all the right certifications, including FairTrade and USDA Organic Certificate. Death Wish Coffee strives to produce a bold, highly caffeinated coffee blend without compromising the flavor. So sit back and enjoy a smooth, never-bitter taste with subtle notes of cherry and chocolate, while the clarity and focus that comes with a cup of world’s strong coffee will keep you going through the day.

This year, in the January issue of Men’s Health, Asprey was described as a “lifestyle guru.” The first Bulletproof coffee shop opened in 2015 in Santa Monica, also serving high-fat foods, which are the key elements of the Bulletproof diet. Asprey’s coffee lifestyle brand quickly took off. The company built its foundation on longevity, while it is also actively pursuing the improvement of quality. Asprey uses its platform for bettering the world, and always puts the interests of communities first.

Their beloved Blueberry Cobbler blend inspired by a classic country dessert delivers fruity notes and hints of spices. The intriguing names of blends, like New England Breakfast, Pumpkin Spice, decaf French Vanilla or Hazelnut Crème, sound very appealing and taste heavenly, and these are only a few of the blends options. The New England Coffee Sustainable Cup Project promotes long-term, environmentally friendly products and implements new solutions to combat climate change. The results provide a better future for the farmers and the environment. Country of origin: USA Year of foundation: 1916 Owner: Reily Foods Company Sector: Coffee and tea
2.9 Eight O’Clock
logo owner: Eight O’Clock Eight O’Clock Coffee has been around for well over 150 years, but its best whole bean coffee never stopped being relevant. The brand was introduced in 1859 by The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company, which was just established in that year. Since 2006 the company is a subsidiary of Tata Global Beverages. Eight O’Clock makes its beans only from top-quality 100% Arabica coffee which they then roast themselves in Maryland, USA. Since the acquisition by the Tata Group, the coffee brand has expanded to other types of Coffee like 50% Decaf, French Roast, Dark Italian Espresso, or 100% Colombian Peaks which has the Rainforest Alliance seal of approval. EOC Barista Blends collection is a pretty recent addition, and on top of that, the company is just now introducing Flavors of America which is a special edition of distinct coffee themes each representing a different American state.
