Hari Kaur's Vegetable Stew

My meat eating friends can't believe there's no meat in this stew ... it's so delicious! For the times when I'm asked, "Well, if you're a vegetarian, what do you eat if you don't eat meat?", I share this recipe.

Fill a large stainless steel pot (not aluminum) 1/3 full of water, place on stove and begin heating the water to a boil while you prepare the following:

Add Salt and Pepper (about 1 Tablespoon of each) and 1 stick of Butter or more if you wish.

Add a handful each of these chopped raw veggies

Broccoli
Cabbage
Cauliflower
Carrots
Celery
Onions
Potatoes.

Then add a handful of these veggies (some are found easier frozen)

Brussels Sprouts
Corn
Green Beans
Lima Beans
Peas
Okra (if you like it).

Cook on LOW (simmer at #4 or #5) until tender (about 20-30 minutes). Test with a fork to see if done.

Add 1 small can of Tomato Paste (2 cans for more Tomato taste) and stir gradually into the clear broth, one Tablespoon at a time. This will take about 2-3 minutes.

Serves 10 to 12. Enjoy!

Notes: Freeze if you want to save for quick meals. You can add other veggies if you like, or eliminate any of those you don’t relate to. Add some Bragg's Amino Liquid or salt to taste. Try adding a little bit of Honey or Maple Syrup for a slightly sweeter tomato taste.

The Cauliflower, Broccoli, Cabbage and Brussels Sprouts are anti-cancer foods. This stew/soup is good for cleansing and purging the body of toxic wastes. Ten days of this stew only, along with drinking lots of water, will accomplish many wonderful things for the body and mind.

The Water Cure

My Favorite Casserole
Beet, Carrot and Cheese Casserole

6 fist-size beets.
1 lbs. carrots.
2 lbs. sharp cheddar cheese.
Bragg's Liquid Aminos.

Boil beets and carrots separately until tender. Grate beets first in the bottom of a baking dish. Grate carrots and spread on top of the beets. Grate cheese and spread over the top of carrots. Bake at 350 degrees until cheese is crispy. Remove from oven. Add Bragg's Amino Liquid or salt to taste. Enjoy.

Hari Kaur's
Sinful Salad

For 15-20 people.

4 small cans of mandarin oranges, drained
2 regular size cans of pineapple (unsweetened) in it's own juice, drained
16 oz container of sour cream
1 regular package of coconut (The sweetened version helps sweeten the sour cream.)
3 hand-full's of marshmallows - the miniature size works well
3 hand-full's of walnut pieces
3 regular jars of drained red maraschino cherries (or frozen cherries, or strawberries, or raspberries and any other fruit desired. (The red adds a festive color.)
add sliced bananas only at time of serving

Note: If you add marshmallows, you may not need the sweetened coconut. Enjoy!

  Friend Dorothy's        
Cowboy Cookies

2 cups melted butter (4 sticks).
2 cups brown sugar.
2 cups white sugar.
4 beaten eggs or egg substitute.
1 teaspoon baking powder.
1 teaspoon baking soda.
1 teaspoon salt.
2 teaspoons vanilla.
4 cups flour.
2 twelve ounce packages chocolate chips (4 cups).
3 cups rolled Old Fashioned oats.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Melt butter in large microwave-safe bowl or on stove.
Add sugars and let cool a bit.
Add eggs and stir.
Add baking powder, baking soda, salt, and vanilla.
Stir some more.
Add flour and stir.
Then add chips and oats and mix everything really well.

The dough will be quite stiff. Don’t worry, it’s supposed to be that way.

Use a teaspoon and drop onto a greased cookie sheet by the rounded spoonfuls, 12 to a sheet. Each spoonful should be only about the size of a walnut or a small egg.

Bake at 350 degrees for about 12-15 minutes.
Let cool on cookie sheet for 2 minutes.

Remove and place on rack. This step is very important, it makes them crispy on the outside and moist on the inside.

These will keep well if you roll them in foil and put them in a freezer bag. That is, if they last that long.

Good combinations include: Lime or orange with cottage cheese and pineapple, Lime or orange with cottage cheese and pears, Orange with mandarin oranges (canned), or without cottage cheese, if desired. However, the cottage cheese adds protein. Let your imagination run wild!

SOPA (Spanish Rice) - Put about a cup of Uncle Ben's Converted Rice in a saucepan and cover with oil. Cook for about 5 minutes, LOW HEAT, or until the rice is lightly browned and expanded about 3-4 times it original state.

Add 1 large can of whole tomatoes "smashed" in a food processor or blender so the tomatoes are in small pieces. This provides the liquid needed for the final cooking of the rice. Cook until tender.

The next day is actually better for this rice, since the garlic and onions are stronger and the rice has absorbed more of the flavor the second day.

The Benefits of Yogi Tea

Yogi Tea is a delicious ancient Eastern recipe and remedy. It acts as a tonic for the entire nervous system. It reduces tiredness and helps restore mental balance. Yogi Tea is a remedy and preventative measure for colds, flu and sinus problems. The peppercorns are a blood purifier, cardamom is for the digestive system, cloves are for the nervous system, cinnamon is for the bones, ginger is an aid in strengthening the nervous system, as well as energizing the entire person, and the black tea acts as a catalyst for the other ingredients. Milk aids in the assimilation of the spices and helps avoid irritation of the stomach and colon. And the mucous-producing qualities of milk are greatly reduced by boiling the milk. Most folks love the aroma and taste of Yogi Tea!

Ancient Yogic Formulas

For the immune system ...
Blend five jalapeno peppers in one glass of milk for 30
minutes. Drink this blend and repeat daily as necessary.

For the blood ...
Include liberal amounts of raw onions, garlic and ginger
in the daily diet. Cooking or processing these herbs will
somewhat weaken their effectiveness and should be
avoided, but is recommended in some cases.

Raw onions can be eaten, immediately after peeling, with
salads and in sandwiches. They can also be used in
many cooked dishes. Mix one cup of fresh onion juice and
one cup of fresh mint tea and drink.

Raw garlic can be chopped and eaten, immediately after
peeling, on toast, in salads, on pizza and may be added
to many cooked dishes. Drink fresh garlic juice mixed
with almond oil or mint tea.

Raw gingerroot can be sliced and boiled to make a tea.
Boil four to five slices of fresh gingerroot in three cups of
water, add honey to taste and drink as often as you like.

All three of these herbs can be sautéed together until
lightly brown. Then add fresh black pepper and cook this
mixture with mung beans and rice and may you be ...
