cook for another 4 to 6 minutes, until the shrimp are bright pink and
the vegetables are slightly charred.

Fluff the rice pilaf and divide it among 4 warm dinner plates. Place
the skewers on top.

Hi Ben,

Title: Skewered Shrimp On Wild Rice Pilaf
Categories: Seafood, Shrimp, Rice
Yield: 4 Servings

That looks really good! This week has been pretty much of a total loss
for me. The reaction to the antibiotic really threw me for a loop; the
worst days were Sunday afternoon to Wednesday morning. I survived on
crackers and water, when I felt like eating. Still not eating much but
hope that will improve over the next few days............I miss my milk products (given up until the antibiotic clears my system).

2 c Long grain brown rice
4 c Water

salt

2 Onions; chopped
--- PPoint 3.01 1 ts Sea Salt
* Origin: Sew! That's My Point (1:396/45.28) 4 tb Safflower oil
1 Zucchini; sliced in rounds

1 c Eggplant; cubed
3 Green apples;
- cored, sliced into rings
2 Peaches; peeled & sliced
1/2 c Raisins
1/2 c Apple juice
2 tb Curry powder; heaping
2 tb Red wine vinegar
2 tb Fresh lemon juice
1 ts Lemon peel
1/4 c Raw peanuts; chopped
2 Bananas; diagonally sliced

Combine rice, water, and 1 ts salt, and steam for 1 hour. Saute
onions with 1 ts salt in oil until onions are tender. Add zucchini
and eggplant and fry until tender. Lightly stir in fruits and apple
juice, then add next 4 ingredients. Simmer 10 minutes. Place
steamed rice into a buttered 3 qt baking dish. Smother with sauteed
mixture. Cover and bake at 350?F for 25 minutes. Remove and
garnish with peanuts and bananas. Serve immediately.

Variations:

For the meat-eating crowd, use 1/2 lb ground lamb or pork instead
of zucchini & eggplant. When fresh fruits are not available, use 1
to 1-1/2 cups dried apples and 3/4 cups dried peaches,
reconstituting them in warm water for 1 hour before using them.

I think it would probably work better for young children who don't eat
that much to begin with. We've been using an herbal remedy put out by a
company that sells a lot to Amish, Mennonite, etc folks (reccommended by
a friend) that works well, as does blackberry wine.

Kasha usually cooks up soft for me. I like to cook it with beef or
chicken broth to give it more flavor.

I'm finally over the worst of the infection/antibiotic backlash, not
quite 100% tho. Next time I see the doctor I will ask him not to give me
that antibiotic again; he'd given it to me once before with less of a
reaction but the second time was harder and I don't want to risk a 3rd
round.

Stephen had been doing all the cooking/clean up so for tonight's supper
he did Italian sausage with peppers, mushrooms and onions (all sauteed).
It tasted good. (G)

It's one of those you only take for 5 days and it's supposed to keep
working like a 10 day regime. For some reason the pharmacy put 6 pills
in my bottle; I quit taking them after 5 because of the side effects so
I've got one left--as a reminder.

As for real food, yes, it's good to eat again, tho in smaller
quantities. I'd been living off of next to nothing (tea, toast,
crackers)--not a reccommended way to lose weight but I needed some
nutrition. I'm now eating a "normal" breakfast (yogurt, toast, tea) and
supper, in small amounts but just nibbling--steamed egg, slice of
cheese, couple of crackers, bit of melon--for lunch. Probably better for
me anyway.

These vegan energy balls use sunflower seeds, oats, coconut, lemon,

and omega-3's for busy days, meal prep, or after a workout.

Add the sunflower seeds to a high-speed blender and blend until
smooth. Add the oats and blend until they have the consistency of
flour.

Add the sunflower seeds and oats to a large bowl with the coconut
oil, 1/2 cup (48 g) of shredded coconut, the lemon zest, lemon juice,
maple syrup, hemp seeds and salt. Stir to combine everything into a
dough-like consistency.

Form the dough into balls of 2 to 3 tb (40 to 60 g) per ball. You
should have approximately 12 balls.

Add the remaining 1/3 cup (32 g) of shredded coconut to a bowl and
roll the energy balls in the coconut. Place them on a clean plate and
refrigerate them for 20 to 30 minutes until they're set.

Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
