Korean Cooking and Cuisine

Do you know the power of green veggies? It's called enzymes, folks! Ever since I was diagnosed with cancer, I've been on a quest to find a way to incorporate better nutrition into my life. I doubt I will become a vegan or a vegetarian, because my love of meat is too great. =P HOWEVER, I have reduced my intake of meat by a lot.

Yesterday was the first time I had red meat in over four weeks. For a person who used to eat beef at every meal...this is quite an accomplishment. =P



I went and purchased a juicer and have been juicing fresh GREENS daily. I force everyone to drink it. =) What do I juice? Everything I can think of! I just go to the grocery store once a week and stock up on as many organic veggies as I can fit into my fridge. I forgot to buy some garlic and ginger, but I plan to add those as well in the upcoming weeks.



A little wheatgrass...I'm going to try and find a way to grow this off our balcony because it's a pain trying to store all this in the fridge and I don't feel like going to Whole Foods each and every day. It's REALLY difficult (near impossible) trying to juice wheatgrass using a standard juicer, so I'm debating whether to purchase a wheatgrass juicer.



Some celery and carrots!



Spinach!



Lots of cucumber and broccoli!



And beautiful leafy kale~



Try it! I promise it doesn't taste bad. Throw in some blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries if you want some sweetness. ;)

Budwig Diet - This DR was nominated for seven Nobel Peace Prizes.

Note: Dr. Johanna Budwig lived until she was 93 years young and she followed her own diet. She has been quoted in numerous publications as saying that DR's in the US came to meet with her in Europe, but when she refused to help them work on a patent for her diet (how in the world do you patent cottage cheese and flaxseed oil???) these DR's huffed and went back home. No money, no publicity?

The recipe below is supposed to be eaten every day. I'm going to try my BEST to do so for at least a few years.

Please note that this is only a part of her diet. The rest of her diet plan is pretty strict on what you can and cannot eat, as are most of the Anti-Cancer diet books I've read.


Mix it in a bowl and then stick it into a blender. I was later told that this mixture needs to be thoroughly blended together.



I use a bullet mixer.



I spread it on some gluten-free bread to make it easier to eat. =) Sorry, I forgot to take a picture before I took a bite!
