AMBROSIA


Ambrosia is what Tal's mother called a bowl of Citrus Fruit and Coconut.

While I was sick with a head cold and Tal the flu, we both found this dish healing and refreshing. Fortunately, even in Romania, Oranges and Grapefruit are plentiful and tasty.

Cut up twice the amount of Oranges as Grapefruit. For the two of us, I cut up in small chunks:
1 Grapefruit
2 Oranges
1 Apple
Pecan
1 Banana
A handful of Coconut
No sugar please.


Another dish I crave when I am sick is CUCUMBER PARSLEY. So cleansng and nourishing.

1 English Cucumber chopped finely.
1 handful of Parsley, chopped finely.
Lemon Juice, Olive Oil, and Sea Salt

Also try this Liver and Kidney cleansing dish. You can juice these vegetables to drink in small amounts through the day. Beet/carrot/celery/apple juice replentish and rebuild your energy after a sickness, but you can also shred up 1/2 of a Beet and sprinkle with Olive Oil, Lemon Juice and Sea Salt. The Lemon Juice takes the earthly taste away from the beet. You can do the same with shredded Carrots or combine the Beet and Carrot. Eat two spoonfuls at a time, periodically through the day. This is the time to simi-fast. Leave meat, sugar, processed foods for another day.

Now try making a side dish for your meal. BEET APPLE SALAD

Shredded Beet
Chopped apple
Lemon Juice, Olive Oil, Sea Salt

Celery and Pecan may be added if you like.
