Kate’s EFA Concoction
I’m blogging here with a Beck tune (Novocaine) playing in the background and I just finished a dinner of chili (grass fed beef and organic black eye peas). I used to eat chili a lot but I tend to suffer from food boredom. I’m always on the lookout for something different to eat and the other day I witnessed what you would call a freestyle recipe…a recipe made on the spot, like it was plucked out of the air of inspiration. My friend Kate, who is a dance choreographer (one of many talents she possesses), has this uncanny ability to prepare food with what she has on hand and somehow has it coming out tasting wonderful. The other morning she took some 100% toasted kamut/spelt bread, poured a little olive oil on top of it…when on to mix honey and tahini and spread that on top. She then took some flaxseed meal (ground flaxseed) and spread that on top and topped that off with some fresh walnuts. Now you might say overkill, but what you have here is an EFA (essential fatty acids) super snack, which explodes with flavor. If you’re an O suffering from arthritis and want something to help your joints, give this a try…(who needs Novacain?)
