ROBUST BEET SALAD BY DR ANDREW WEIL



Robust Beet Salad by Dr Andrew Weil image

Found this online. My crowd is big on beets and big on things with a hot kick. This looks very promising. Hope to try it soon. If you don't like to boil beets, you can surely roast them instead (yum), or, if in a pinch for time, use canned beets.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 53m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 lbs beets
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup rice vinegar or 1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon wasabi powder (Japanese horseradish)
1 teaspoon mustard powder
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, sliced thin
salt

Steps:

  • Cut off the beet tops about an inch above the beet. In a large pot cover the beets with three inches of cold water and bring to a boil. Cover and boil over medium heat until tender, about 45 minutes.
  • Drain the beets under cool running water. Slip off their skins. Trim off stems and root ends and slice the beets thinly.
  • Combine the sliced beets in a bowl with the other ingredients, add salt to taste, and chill. Stir several times.
  • This salad will keep for a week in the refrigerator.

6 tablespoons Japanese soy sauce or 6 tablespoons tamari

CHINESE GREEN BEAN SALAD BY DR ANDREW WEIL



Chinese Green Bean Salad by Dr Andrew Weil image

from his website. He writes, "This bright green, crunchy salad is bursting with Asian flavors and is so easy to prepare. Look for fresh, plump organic green beans if you can find them. Cook them until they are bright green and still crunchy-tender. At this point you can keep the green beans refrigerated. Toss them with the dressing just before serving or the acid in the dressing will dull the bright green color."

Provided by Sarah Chana

Categories     Vegetable

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb fresh green beans, organic if possible
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh gingerroot
1 cup slivered red onion
4 teaspoons mustard powder
1 tablespoon cold water
2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons rice or 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 teaspoons dark-roasted sesame oil
2 teaspoons sugar

Steps:

  • Trim and cut the green beans into 1-inch lengths. Cook in rapidly boiling water, about 5 minutes or until crunchy-tender.
  • Drain beans, immerse in cold water to stop the cooking until they are cool, then drain well. At this point you can set them aside and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Mix the dressing ingredients in a small bowl with a whisk until well blended.
  • Toss the green beans with the ginger root, red onion and dressing.
  • Serve immediately.

LEBANESE SALAD



Lebanese Salad image

Adapted from the oh-so-useful The Healthy Kitchen cookbook by Andrew Weil and Rosie Daley, which especially focuses on the healthy Mediterranean cuisine. I omit or reduce the olives (too much sodium), reduce the cheese (same reason) and omit the extra salt. People who don't have to watch their blood pressure probably don't have to follow these restrictions. I do use plenty of pepper. I also add a bit of minced bell pepper (any color, because I love it). Sometimes I add oregano, basil or rosemary. It's a great lunch stuffed into a whole wheat pita. The passive "cooking" time is actually the chilling time. P.S. The original recipe only has 1 clove garlic.

DR. ANDREW WEIL'S GRILLED OR BROILED SALMON



Dr. Andrew Weil's Grilled or Broiled Salmon image

This recipe is based on one from Dr. Andrew Weil's book, 8 Weeks to Optimum Health. Use wild salmon for optimum health benefits as it tastes better and is more nutritious, and eating it does not have the environmental impact of eating farmed salmon, nor the health risks associated with it. Cook time doesn't include the 1-3 hours marinating time in the 'fridge. This makes a great meal with rice and a cooked vegetable or salad.
