The key to a Disease, anti-aging and superior longevity is keeping the inflammation markers in the body low. Research shows that eating a Raw foods, Plant-based diet is the fastest and most effective way of doing this. If you struggle with Arthritis, Auto immune disease, Allergies, IBS for example-the single most effective thing you can do is adding more alkaline foods like raw & unprocessed foods like (organic fruits, vegetables, sea vegetables, seeds, spiralina, sprouts, fresh coconut water, fresh herbs like ginger and tumeric and other SUPER FOODS). By adding these foods consistently, you can drastically reduce many of your health ailments and reap the benefits of a more vibrant life & often times and eliminate the need for medications. Side note, many of you know that I have been promoting this lifestyle for more than 2 decades and have I studied with and worked with many of the Top Health pioneers & Longevity leaders in the world along the way. One in particular stands out! David Wolfe, is not only a personal friend of mine and a colleague but is truly a huge inspiration to me on a personal level.
Please enjoy this next recipe as it one of my all time favorites! Also please check out a little Video that David Wolfe did for Nutri bullet that addresses Inflammation and simple ways to incorporate anti-inflammatory foods into your daily life with the simplicity of a smoothie.
Savory California Rolls Recipe
Ingredients:
(For 2 rolls)
2 nori sheet
1 cup soaked almonds or other nuts ground for nut “rice”*
1/2 avocado, sliced
1 small carrot, shaven/shredded/julienned
2 green onions, split lengthwise
a handful of sunflower/alfalfa/other sprouts
little bit of shredded horseradish
1 small cucumber, sliced lengthwise
umeboshi plum paste**
forkful of sauerkraut per roll
anything else you like…
Directions:
Have a very sharp knife and a small bowl/cup of water ready to wet your fingers and the knife as necessary.
1. Lay out the nori sheets and spread a little umeboshi plum paste on half the area of each to help the nut “rice” stick better.
2. Take half of the nut “rice” and pack it down firmly and evenly with the back of a spoon.
3. Layer the vegetable shreds/slices you’re using and top them with some sauerkraut and sprouts. Ready to roll?
4. Dip your fingers in water and dampen the upper 1-inch edge of a sheet and carefully lifting the other edge while holding down your pile of ingredients, start rolling it as tightly as you can manage. The wet end will serve as a seal. Make sure to press that edge against the other surface. Put this roll aside and repeat the roll-up procedure with the other.
5. Wet your sharpest kitchen knife and either slice the rolls into about 1-inch thick bites or cut them in halves diagonally.
6. If you’d like a dip, mix some soy/shoyu sauce with some wasabi. The wasabi paste is easily made by mixing some powder with a touch of water.
Enjoy.
