PSK mushrooms and astragalus

Anything brown: rice, bread

olive oil and lots of salad with red wine vinegar

Wyo, it is not super-virtuous, but once in a while Inneed a noodle fix. I make a tomato sauce starting with finely chopped onion, garlic, celery and carrot. saute that a bit in olive oil, add half cup red wine, let wine bubble off, add 3 cans crushed tomato, sal, pepper, big handful of chopped parsley, zest of one orange. while that simmers, cube 4 large portobellos and saute them quickly. add to tomato sauce. 

Then trim and clean a pound of oyster mushrooms and saute them. set aside. 

make a quart of bechamel. let it cool a bit and beat two eggs into it. 

Put a little sauce in a tin, add a layer of noodles (no boil), thick layer of sauce, half the oyster mushrooms, dots of ricotta, repeat, top with noodles, pour over bechamel and bake 45 minutes. Top should be set and nicely browned. let sit for 15 minutes before serving. 

We had a slaw of cauliflower and carrot with a coriander/lemon dressing and black cumin seeds as our side.

Yes Karen!!!! More red wine!  I find it compliments my healthy diet. It is the nectar of the g*ds. 

Yumm Momine..I can taste that lasagna just reading about it...full of shrooms and veggies...and that slaw...sounds really wonderful!

thanks, Momine!!! Sounds like a treat.

Momine, if you ever open a restaurant I will fly to Greece. The tomato sauce with portobellos over quinoa sounds really good, too. And that slaw sounds great! (I plan on attempting a version of it.)

Falls, the slaw is super-easy. Slice cauliflower thinly. Grate a carrot or two coarsely. Then take a bunch of cilantro, juice of half a lemon and a clove of garlic and put it in a blender with some olive oil. Pour that over the veggies. Toss and sprinkle black cumin over the top. It looks pretty, tastes good and will keep 1-2 days in the fridge without getting yucky. You can also sprinkly shopped nuts over the top. I do this a lot with various cabbages and root veggies. Experiment and see what you like.

Fall, red cabbage would work. If your food processor has a mandolin blade, you can cut it in there. You can grate carrots into it, but beets or parsnip are nice too. You can also thinly slice or grate a few radishes in a salad like that. The possibilities are many. For the dressing you can use other herbs or a mixture of different ones.

I just started the Mushroom pills, I've been reading alot about them and decided to give it a try.  There are so many companies selling them, but I opted for one of the more expensive ones because of it's ingredients, and it's popularity within the Chinese community.  It's a ViCare Product called Vi-Reishi.  I'm still researching other mushrooms with high PSK and PSP values.  I also ordered some organic Reishi and Turkey Tail mushroom to grow at home, but I heard it's hard for the body to extract the so called cancer fighting ingredients by just grinding and eating in pill form.  A reputable company can do that, but I guess it reflects in the price.  I'm going to make it a project to try and extract via boiling and alcohol. I also purchased 5 lbs of organic wheat grass and the Hurricane juicer that help squeeze out all the nutrients.  It grows within a week a read, so that will be another fun project.  If anyone knows any other immune system boosters please share!

Thanks Abigail! I'll look him up! 

Momine, just wanted to say I used your recipe to make red cabbage/carrot/beet slaw and it was very tasty! I will definitely be adding that to my repertoire (and I look forward to trying different versions). Thanks!

there are juicers & juicers, the expensive kind uses presure not spin to extract the juice which oxidizes far less & less soon.  )I don't have one of these.)

I made smoothies with broccoli or kale as one of the ingredients, and usually a little flax seed meal. Fruit (fresh and frozen) adds sweetness and I use unsweetened coconut milk or yogurt. That way you get all the fiber and nutrients. I've started adding in a greens powder with chlorella as well, as one of my practitioners wants me to remineralize more with the greens.

Has anyone heard of quark or cottage cheese and flax oil? I was advised that it is very nutritionally healing.

RE: milk, raw and otherwise.  I read this book:  

Your Life In Your Hands: Understanding, Preventing, and Overcoming Breast Cancer Hardcover

by Prof. Jane Plant (Author)

the author had breast cancer - was a scientist - worked in china where breast cancer is very rare and decided there was a link between dairy products and breast cancer because of the growth factors in milk.  She stopped eating all dairy - also went conventional route - and is cancer free. 

I don't know what to believe.   I used to drink raw milk, use butter, cheese, yogurt.... now I use a little butter on occasion and a little cheese on occasion and have stopped the other dairy products.
