Back in the early 2000s, I used to give a vegetarian/vegan cooking demo and lecture with a friend at a popular yoga studio. I’d written up a ton of recipes and helpful hints to accompany the program. It was a lengthy handout that a lot of people seemed to enjoy. Thankfully, I found a few copies of this printout recently, as it no longer existed in “computer” form. A client offered to type it up for trade in training, then I had a specialist format it for the Amazon Kindle. Some of the recipes are not necessarily things that I eat anymore (grains/tofu) but most are still “accidentally gluten free” or can be made that way with great ease. The “three ways to cook steelcut oats” part includes a total slacker method that brings these sometimes troublesome oats back into the picture for those who otherwise enjoy eating them.
Even though I am well within a grass and green fed beef, raw dairy, low-to-no-grain and soy-free territory now, it seemed like a shame to just let these ideas and recipes fade away. While Primal Blueprint works very well for me, I believe that different things work for different people. (Besides, this is an olive branch to my vegetarian friends who occasionally fret at my extreme meat eating habits!) Many of these internationally-inspired recipes are extremely tasty, and I will be adapting some of them to a Primal/Paleo orientation soon as well. This is a fun little volume for your Kindle, which Amazon Prime members can check out for free—it can also be purchased for $4.99.
In other cooking related news, I’ve been busy on the Primal/Paleo cookbook as well – which will be released in another format (because of the bonus items that come with it). It’s becoming a monster, but contains the very system and formulae I use to reverse engineer, adapt and create recipes on a daily basis. (Along with amusing stories and tales of adventure!)
