Last night as I cleaned up the kitchen and thought of this morning's early breakfast for the family, I thought I'd try a crock pot oatmeal recipe. I found the only dried fruits we had (apricots and cranberries gone) were raisins and dates and some candied ginger, if that counts. So daughter and I conferred and came up with this:
CROCK POT BARLEY OATMEAL
1-1/2 cups steel-cut oats
1/2 cup pearled barley
5 or more cups water
1/2 cup raisins
1/3 cup snipped dates
2 slices candied ginger, snipped up
teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Combine all ingredients in crock pot and cook on low for eight hours.
Verdict: Good. The recipe is corrected for a better guess on the water, as my four-plus cups resulted in oatmeal too dry and stuck to the top edges, so this morning I added a cup or so of milk. It was still dense and sticky, but nicely chewy. The family added butter and sugar to theirs and I added some applesauce to mine.
For the future I think I'd enjoy adding some frozen fruit on top just before cranking it up, to slow the cooking a bit, and using "lighter" dried fruits like apricots or dried apples. I will definitely try this again, and I like being a bit adventurous with the barley!

Splendid Oatmeal
I made this one up this morning, as I rummaged about for a couple of elderly apples I wanted to use up (didn't find them, so we got nicer ones) and thought of dried apricots to enhance the flavor . . .
APPLE-APRICOT-GINGER OATMEAL
Serves 6 with leftovers
6 cups water (I actually used two cups of milk in mine)
3 apples, diced
6 dried apricots, snipped up small (I thought I had more in the package than that!)
3 slices crystallized ginger (each slice about the size of a quarter)
3 cups regular oats
dash of salt (to taste)
Start water boiling and cut up apples, then apricots, then ginger into it. When it comes to a boil, add oats and turn down to low, cooking to desired consistency.
Verdict: Excellent. I think everyone in the family liked this, though with added sugar at the end. I think it could easily be made with grated fresh ginger as well, and more apricots (if you have more than I did!).

Ack--Too Much Life Lately
Well, I have had a couple of nice smoothies this last week, a good apple oatmeal, some giant salads, and a beautiful array of fresh fruit (kiwis, blueberries, strawberries, cara cara oranges, excellent apples, etc.). But I've also had some large distractions (death in the extended family, severe illness in the nearer extended family, potential trips to other states in blizzard weather, and a significant job offer [see 2/1/10]). And then there are other difficulties nearer home, nearer my heart, that I'd rather not mention here.
In any case I've been distracted and distressed, excited and over-extended, and I just haven't been able to be systematic about my eating. And yesterday I was just simply in comfort mode, not consistent with nutritarian principles (though I know that real nurture is more consistent with nutritarian principles). But I just cannot do it all. So here I am to say that for the next stretch of time, I will be content with myself to post when I come across just the right inspiration for a great nutritarian meal or dish, and I'll share that then.
Thanks for reading!

Day on the Fly
TODAY'S MENU
Breakfast--Smoothie of strawberry, banana, flax seed meal, and lots of spinach--this was greener than I would normally like, and I added a little Crystal Light to it for flavor. If I'd had more time I would have added some more fruit.
Lunch--Leftover CREAMY POTATO-TURNIP SOUP, Giant Eagle Prince Edward Medley vegetables (mine aren't quite what the link has, but close enough, and wonderful!) topped with FUSION HUMMUS--ITALIAN, golden apple
Snack--Roasted edamame, unsalted roasted peanuts (tablespoon), snipped dates (about four), for a total of about 1/2 cup
Supper--2/3 cup canned baked beans with <2 ounces crumbled sirloin burger; salad of spring greens with pear and a couple of walnuts and dijon vinaigrette (homemade by another talented daughter); generous slice of homemade sourdough bread with a bit of butter; orange

Satisfying Sandwich
TOMATO-PEPPER HUMMUS SANDWICH
South Beach Multigrain Wrap (110 calories, 8g fiber)
1/3 cup FUSION HUMMUS--MIDDLE EASTERN
small tomato, chopped
small yellow pepper, chopped
Lightly toast the wrap, then spread with hummus and top with tomato and pepper.
Verdict: Excellent. This "sandwich" was especially good to me today--sweet peppers and tart-sweet tomato, spicy-rich hummus (this one is lowfat), and substantial "bread."
TODAY'S MENU
Breakfast--Leftover oatmeal with apples, raisins, cinnamon, and pecans
Lunch--Salad lovingly prepared by my daughter, so it tasted great: spring mix, romaine, matchstick carrots, raisins, dried cranberries, pecans, a bit of feta, and low-cal Italian dressing; TOMATO-PEPPER HUMMUS SANDWICH; navel orange
Snack--Apple with peanut butter (about a tablespoon), half cup of lentils/brown rice/quinoa with pasta sauce
Supper--Yellow squash and zucchini with onions (boiled), two ounces pork loin, kiwi and banana.
Plus, unfortunately, the several chocolate coins I had this afternoon and several bites of the buttered noodles I made the family for supper. I shouldn't have expected that easing out of the holiday treat-mobile would be easy!!!

It's Good To Be Back
I've really enjoyed my healthy eating today, and I'm experimenting with supper a bit. I went to the Mom&Pop grocery in Grove City (Bi-Lo) and got the best produce they had (which isn't saying a whole lot)--navel oranges, kiwis, the two best green peppers, the half of the zucchini and of the yellow squash that weren't limp, some broccoli crowns, red onions, and three little turnips. The latter were what got supper going for me . . .
CREAMY POTATO-TURNIP SOUP
Inspiration here
One onion, diced
Four potatoes, cubed
Three small turnips, cubed
8 oz. (about 2/3 of a bag, or 2-3 cups) broccoli slaw
2-3 cups stock (I used chicken)
Teaspoon nutmeg
Salt to taste
Water for desired texture
Combine vegetables and stock in a pot and simmer about an hour, until the vegetables are soft. Cool a bit and then puree the soup in a blender and return to the pot to reheat. Season and add water to taste.
Verdict: Before the puree, not so good. I am not looking forward to this for supper. After the puree, Very Good! :-) The soup is creamy with a fatty feel, but there isn't more than a teaspoon or two of fat (from the chicken stock) in the whole pot.
ROASTED ZUCCHINI AND ONIONS
3 or 4 zucchini, cut into finger-sized slices
2 small onions, quartered
drizzle of olive oil (I had about a tablespoon at most)
Italian seasoning blend (basil, oregano, etc.)
Montreal steak seasoning
Parmesan cheese to dust
Put the cut vegetables on a roasting pan and drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with the seasonings and toss all around. Roast in 375-400-degree oven for fifteen minutes or so, turning with a spatula partway through. The idea is to get some of the edges browned and a little crispy, if possible, with the rest at least cooked through, but not mushy. To serve, put some on a plate and dust with parmesan.
Verdict: Excellent (and I'm just smelling it!). Still Excellent after eating it. I'd prefer a crisper kind of thing, but wilty is good, too.
TODAY'S MENU
Breakfast--Oatmeal with apples, raisins, cinnamon, and pecans
Lunch--Lentils, brown rice, and quinoa (leftover frozen KUSHERIE from last month) topped with pasta sauce (I even picked out the meatballs I'd originally heated into the sauce and fed them to the dog. :-) ) ; salad of spring greens, celery, slivers of bell pepper (all colors), and radish slices, with a dressing of watered-down FUSION HUMMUS--ITALIAN. (Today this hummus as a salad dressing was reminiscent of egg salad.)
Snack--Large pink and gold apple
Supper--CREAMY TURNIP-POTATO SOUP, ROASTED ZUCCHINI AND ONIONS, navel orange
Party--Yes, another party. :-) I had the smallest slice of chocolate cake available (I cut it myself) and a small serving of ice cream.

Fusion Hummus
I have a party to go to this evening, and I have a refrigerated container full of what's left after you take two or three cups of garbanzo beans out of an institutional-sized can of the things. So I'm doing hummus. I have been looking at the things on my shelves and getting some inspiration recently for an Italian take on hummus, so here it is:
FUSION HUMMUS -- ITALIAN
3 large cloves garlic
3 cups canned garbanzo beans, rinsed
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup lightly toasted pine nuts
9 garlic-stuffed green olives
white wine as needed to blend (I used 1/3 - 1/2 cup)
one whole jarred roasted red pepper (no oil), snipped into small pieces
Whirl garlic, garbanzo beans, olive oil, pine nuts, and olives in blender, adding white wine as needed for proper consistency. Remove to bowl and stir in snipped pepper pieces. Option that might be pretty--reserve olives or some olives to snip into the blended mixture at the end.
Verdict--Excellent. This is more "fancy" or indulgent (read: contains more fat) than I'd want to use for everyday, but I have leftover garbanzo beans still and can puree them with this hummus for my own use in the days to come. Does hummus freeze well?
FUSION HUMMUS--MIDDLE EASTERN
3 large cloves garlic
1/2 cup tahini (mine was heavy on solids, light on oil, at the end of the jar)
3 cups canned garbanzo beans, rinsed
half a lemon, flesh and all, with the zest from the rind
tablespoon Garam Masala (mine is homemade and on the dark side, but not strong because it's been on the shelf for a few months)
1/2 teaspoon cumin
water (I used about 1/2 cup) and olive oil (I used a tablespoon, I think) to blend
dried parsley
salt to taste
Whirl garlic, tahini, garbanzo beans, lemon, and spices, with water and oil to proper consistency. Then turn out to a bowl and stir in parsley and salt as needed.
Verdict--Excellent. Hummus is just plain good, and I love the variations on it. I wanted a "warmer," sweeter version for this one. I think a fresher garam masala or some good coriander (mine was too shelf-old) would be good for it, maybe even a touch of cinnamon or cloves.

Simple Start and Progress Report
No, I don't have any exciting progress to report from my holiday hiatus. In fact, I'm not going to weigh in officially until next Monday, so I have a week of "recovery" and a new starting point. I need it.
Today it all starts simply with a big banana for breakfast. I need to do some snow shoveling so the mail carrier can get to our box, and I need to do some video lectures to get our homeschooling week started. But I wanted to report my blood work results from last month:
I'm afraid I don't have spectacular details of blood work to show the benefits of nutritarian eating, as my numbers are pretty similar to those of two years ago, when I weighed about thirteen pounds less and was exercising more vigorously than I have been lately. But two years ago I had also been on Wellbutrin for the previous nine months and that threw my blood pressure up higher at that time and may also have had some effect on blood work. (When I got off the W. my weight shot right up almost 30 pounds in six months.) Three years ago, though, I weighed 30 pounds more than I did when this latest blood work was done, and that provides an interesting comparison. Here are all the numbers:
Year (within 2 mos. of December) . . . 2006 . . . 2007 . . . 2009
Weight (compared to December 2009) . . . +30 . . . -13 . . . 0 (after losing about 18 pounds in under three months)
Regimen . . . None . . . Wellbutrin, small portions, and vigorous exercise . . . Nutritarian and light exercise
Blood Pressure . . . 135/82 . . . 140/80 . . . 120/80 (I had the same reading a few months ago)
Fasting Glucose . . . 91 . . . "Fine" . . . 92
Total Cholesterol . . . 194 . . . 181 . . . 181
HDL . . . 39 . . . 48 . . . 39
LDL . . . 137 . . . 123 . . . 121
Triglycerides . . . 89 . . . 51 . . . 105
At age 48 I'm happy with my blood pressure and LDL. I can get the HDL higher (best above 50) with more exercise and perhaps some red wine, as well as getting off more weight (though I understand the HDL can be suppressed during and soon after weight loss). I don't know a lot about triglycerides, but even though they're elevated they're still good numbers.
TODAY'S MENU
Breakfast--large banana, two tiny clementines, half ounce roasted edamame
Lunch--Campbell's Healthy Request Italian Wedding Soup (about a cup) with added red kidney beans (about 2/3 cup) and a big handful of fresh spinach wilted into the soup; gala apple
Snack--tastes of FUSION HUMMUS--ITALIAN and --MIDDLE EASTERN
Supper--Appetizer party at a friend's. I had a lot of good fresh veggie and fruit choices, but I had several other sorts of things, too. We had some car/snow trauma this evening that set me up with few resources to deal with temptation in the aftermath of stress. But still it was better than it could have been, and I had a lovely time with old friends.

Happy New Year! Inspiration
At the Diseaseproof.com blog Deanna noted a new blog (like mine on steroids), janadrjoel.blogspot.com . Jana Diedrich is working her way through Dr. Fuhrman's recipes in Julie/Julia (great movie, so-so book) style, with beautiful photos of her everyday experiments. It's a great documentary of sorts of what Dr. F's nutritarian principles look like in real life, albeit carefully-created real life.
Now since both Jana and the Vegan Epicurean Alicia are ladies in their forties, like me, but without the four-child household I manage, I see them as inspirations and refuse to be discouraged by the many ways in which I find it difficult to keep up the daily excellence at the table that they can manage. But I am nevertheless inspired and want to inspire you, too!
If you're interested in taking the nutritarian plunge ala drfuhrman.com , I am considering joining the Member Center there but don't need the e-book that comes as part of membership. If you'd like the e-book at a discount, please contact me and we can arrange for me to pass on my "license" for it to you. I bought the book last year.
I'm still in holiday mode here and will hit the ground running on Monday, but I plan to be back in the swing of nutritarian eating and cooking in the first full week of the new year.
Blessings to all!
Cindy
