Rainbow Coleslaw

1/4 large head green cabbage
1 medium to large beet
1 large carrot
8 dates, pitted and roughly chopped (not medjool) (Ken felt it could have used more dates, but I liked it like this)
1/3 cup raisins, roughly chopped
1/3 cup chopped macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
(You can also add shredded apple to the salad)

Shred the cabbage, beet and carrot, add other ingredients and blend.

This salad has a natural sweetness, and with all the different raw vegetables this slaw has to be loaded with vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and phytonutrients. Even the dressing has to be packed with nutrients. but Ken likes the creaminess of a coleslaw, so we made a dressing of 1/2 cup raw cashews, 1/8 cup of distilled water, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon agave nectar, and 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, blend together. It was very good and creamy for the dressing. You can adjust and add ingredients to this to make it more to your liking. Some balsamic or fig vinegar would probably be good also.

So, Ken will be home tomorrow and we’ll make some foods and post pictures!

Before I end this post on foods, I want to give you a link to go to to read about “natural flavors” in our foods. I think it is important to go here to read about this information and then do your due diligence and respond accordingly. The link is here at tangergreen.com.

Happy, Healthy Eating

Jackie V.

Two of the most important decisions I will make today is what I choose to eat and what I choose NOT to eat. If you have been reading Jackie’s FoodBlog, you have seen that we are incorporating NUTRIENT dense smoothies, juices, fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains, lots of greens, which are prepared raw to lightly cooked or saute’d.

To present the whole picture of my journey, I must also include our Biometics™ supplements. The Biometics™ supplements we have incorporated are basic nutrients, vitamins, and minerals that everyone needs. Part of the formulation process is called micellization. It is our understanding that this process causes these supplements to be ready for absorption when consumed and do not require our bodies to digest them.

It would be very pleasing to talk about how we researched, examined reams of scientific documentation, but the truth is a friend of ours insisted that we try Biometics™ supplements for at least 30 days because they were making a difference in how she felt. We tried Biometics™ for 30 days in February 2000 and have never quit.

All I really know is that when we began using the Biometics™ BioFue™, Aloe Plus™, and Get-Go-N™ Jackie’s weekly migraine headaches went away and have been gone since February 2000. I know that there have been many days since February 2000 that if it had not been for the Biometics™ supplements I would not have been able to get out of bed.

These products are just as much a part of my diet/lifestyle as any fruit or vegetable from the garden, so I felt it necessary to include them as a post. Every morning I have a smoothie or carrot juice, cup of coffee. . . Yes coffee but it’s organic! and my Biometics™ nutritional drink. On the days that I do not have my carrot juice or smoothie I still have my Biometics™ nutritional drink.

To me, a supplement is just that, an addition to or a completion of, my food. It is to insure (like insurance) that I get, at a minimum, the nutrients, vitamins, minerals my body needs. Biometics™ Supplements are NOT food, nor are they a replacement for food. They are nutrients, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and phytonutrients, derived from food sources.

Biometics™ supplements are the only supplements that have ever rocked my world and are the only supplements I choose to market personally.

Have a great day.
