- 1 banana ($.20)

Fruity Pebbles, Froot Loops, Trix … most commercial cereals try to imitate fruit. Why not just have fruit?
Any fresh or dried fruit combination would work. For this, I’ve used a
sliced banana, diced mango, and some walnuts and raisins topped with
almond milk.

- 2 tablespoons chopped pistachios ($.40)
- 2 tablespoons raisins or dried cranberries ($.30)
- 1/2 cup arugula sprouts or alfalfa sprouts ($.50)
Assemble the salad and add the dressing.
I’ve peeled the blood oranges and then pulled the sections apart,
leaving the membranes intact. They contain nutrients and fiber that I
didn’t want to discard. They aren’t quite as pretty or photogenic as
without, and some people find the membranes bitter tasting. These can be
easily cut away, if desired.

traditional in just about every culinary history. It’s sometimes thought
of as a German or southern specialty. I like how the wilting process
softens the greens just a little. The dish is usually made with greens
that are wilted by pouring hot bacon and bacon fat over them.This recipe
achieves the same goal in a healthier and kinder version.
sliced zucchini and onions in a lidded container. Whisk together the
olive oil, balsamic vinegar, agave, salt, cayenne, and liquid smoke and
pour over them, coating well. Put the lid on a shake a few times, for
good measure. Pour onto a lined dehydrator sheet and dehydrate for about
two hours at 110 degrees.
container. Whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, agave,
garlic, salt, and pepper and pour over the kale. Massage for a minute or
two to evenly coat. Put the lid on and shake container every so often
to recoat the kale. Let this marinate and “wilt” while the zucchini is
dehydrating. Add the other greens for the last half hour, since they’re
far more delicate than the kale.
