I do eat lots of raw food.
I’ve been watching cooking shows and have adapted recipes to my healthy eating. Thai food with lots of veggies is good (but too salty).
In a big bowl, put in a lot of spring salad mix. Use scissors to cut to compress the salad so it doesn’t take up that much volume, and so you can eat more without thinking you’re eating too much.
Garnish with protein such as grilled chicken, steak, fish. Pre-slice for ease of eating.
Add sliced in-season fruit, avocado, red radishes, whatever you have…
Infuse light salad dressing with some interesting flavors, such as wasabi, Thai lemon grass, ginger, etc…
Top off with some Ikura or real caviar for a luxury touch.
Presentation is key for enjoyment. Always use nice dishes.
Think of a Chipotle bowl but with lots of raw veggies and well presented. You are what you eat!
Throw everything in the dishwasher and run. Done!
September 9, 2014 at 12:32 PM #777925FlyerInHiGuestThe single salad bowl concept is very versatile. You can vary it for different flavors.
Couscous and lamb for Mediterranean, kimchi and bulgogi for Korean, Salsa for Mexican, Teriyaki for Japanese, noodles and spring rolls for Vietnamese, etc…
For health, you need a lot of salad so your meal won’t be authentic but it’ll be healthy.

September 10, 2014 at 10:01 AM #777941FlyerInHiGuestI’m actually a terrible cook. People have told me to that my food is not fit for human consumption, haha.,.. so I order out when there’s company.
I cook out of necessity only. If I were rich, I’d hire a personal chef, would not have an open kitchen, and would never set foot in the kitchen.
That would save so much time for other things.

I love cabinet door dampers. Old cabinets without them are so last century.
They need to engineer better house doors.

Your kids are very up to date! Even today, lots of people don’t know what that is.

Plenty of men and women have done great things while their personal lives were a mess.
Scientific data tells us what we should eat. Is a doctor a bad person if he tells his patient what they should do while he gorges on fried chicken? Maybe the doc is a depressed alcoholic too.
I’d say doc is doing a lot of good telling his patients what they should do. If he quit doing his job, we’d all lose because there’d be one less person advocating healthful habits.
