01:09 Hello and welcome
01:11 to 3ABN Today's cooking program.
01:15 And once again, I am, my name is Angela Lomacang.
01:18 And once again, I'm so excited
01:20 to have with me, Carin Lynch.
01:23 Welcome, Carin.
01:24 Hi, Angie, how are you? I'm wonderful.
01:26 I'm wonderful.
01:27 We know that nothing brings people together like food.
01:30 That's right. It's right.
01:31 You think of not just Thanksgiving,
01:33 you think of family dinners, the birthdays, Christmas.
01:39 Oh.
01:41 Food is just, it's just wonderful.
01:43 It's a comfort foods.
01:44 Food could be comforting as well as nutritious.
01:47 And today's going to be nutritious
01:48 as well as comforting.
01:50 And Hippocrates once said,
01:52 "Let food be your medicine and medicine your food,"
01:56 which is a good thing.
01:57 And today food is going to be our medicine as well.
02:01 Food is mentioned 218 times in the Bible and eat,
02:07 just eating 844 times.
02:11 And so as the Chinese proverbs go,
02:13 health is wealth.
02:15 And so, today we are going to be talking
02:18 about not just talking about,
02:20 but we are going to be making
02:22 some delicious picnic food, aren't we?
02:25 Picnics made simple. Yeah.
02:27 Now tell the viewers about you.
02:29 Who are... Who is Carin Lynch?
02:31 Well, my husband and I
02:34 are actually the North American division directors
02:36 for LIGHT ministries.
02:38 Light is the Lay Institute for Global Health Training.
02:41 It's a ministry that trains lay members, pastors,
02:46 and you know, elders and as well as the congregation
02:50 to embrace health ministries as part of their ministry
02:53 to reaching people for the kingdom of God.
02:56 So we do a lot of practical, hydrotherapy, massage therapy.
03:00 You know, we really base everything
03:02 around the eight laws of health.
03:03 And then, of course, cooking classes
03:06 are a big part of nutrition.
03:07 And so we get to do that a lot
03:09 as we go to churches and travel,
03:11 you know, all around, so.
03:12 Right. So you do go to churches?
03:14 We do, we go to churches on request.
03:15 So if somebody gives us a call,
03:17 we're happy to go and minister to their church.
03:20 All right.
03:21 This is exciting, now picnics,
03:23 people like to go out on a picnic
03:26 and enjoy the sunshine and family and friends.
03:28 Of course.
03:29 But food is very important part of picnic.
03:31 Of course, you have the picnic,
03:32 it needs to have the food, right?
03:34 Right. So, yeah.
03:35 So today we're going to do
03:36 some nice picnicy kind of recipes.
03:38 Ooh!
03:39 What are we going to be doing today?
03:40 What is this
03:42 we're going to be talking about?
03:43 Well, we're going to start with picnics made simple.
03:45 We're going to do a taco seasoning.
03:46 That's going to be part
03:47 of our southwestern chickenless salad sandwich.
03:52 Then we're going to do a citrus cilantro slaw.
03:56 Yes.
03:57 We're going to do amazing stuffed eggs.
04:00 Oh-oh. You mean eggless.
04:02 You mean eggs with a Z.
04:03 How is that possible,
04:05 stuffed eggs without the chicken?
04:07 Without the chicken. All right.
04:09 Without a chicken, without the egg
04:10 we're going to do stuffed eggs.
04:12 How's that? It's going to be good.
04:13 Go ahead.
04:15 We are going to do a tofu,
04:16 a tuna or a tofu tuna or tofuna,
04:19 how's that, macaroni salad.
04:20 Oh.
04:22 And then we're going to finish it off
04:23 with a tropical chia pudding.
04:26 Chia pudding. Yes.
04:28 Taste of the tropics.
04:30 Oh, that's going to be nice, a chia delight.
04:33 Yes, the chia delight. All right.
04:35 Now let's go to our first one.
04:36 We're going to do a taco seasoning.
04:39 Let's go to the ingredients.
04:40 All right.
05:00 All right. Now, what do we use this for?
05:03 You know, a lot of times when we are doing,
05:06 you know, more Mexican or southwestern types of foods,
05:09 we find that, you know, you, you go to the store
05:11 and you're buying a taco seasoning.
05:13 Yes, I've done that.
05:15 But the problem is,
05:16 is that it has a lot of additives in it.
05:17 It has a lot of sodium in it, but we can get those sorted.
05:20 And you know another thing that's in taco seasoning
05:22 a lot of times is chilies and chili powder
05:24 and, you know, chilies can be an irritant
05:27 to our stomach lining.
05:28 And so, to do a taco seasoning without chili powder,
05:32 we can do it ourselves and with very low sodium
05:35 'cause I only put a little bit of salt in there.
05:36 Okay. Let's do this. All right.
05:38 So we have, I'm using some smoked paprika today,
05:40 but you can use regular paprika.
05:42 Smoked, I never heard of that.
05:43 Well, smoked paprika
05:44 actually just has that smoky flavor to it.
05:47 And then we're going to use...
05:49 I can smell it. Yeah, there you go.
05:50 Cumin,
05:53 some coriander,
05:57 and then it goes a little bit of salt.
05:59 Pink salt?
06:01 Yeah, the Himalayan pink salt, garlic powder.
06:03 Ooh, yes.
06:05 Onion powder and then just a little bit of oregano.
06:09 Wow, oregano.
06:11 And that is our,
06:12 and you know, I like to use this.
06:13 I do sometimes like some southwestern dishes,
06:16 like a southwestern tofu scramble.
06:18 I'll sprinkle this on top or you could do it with your...
06:22 You can mix this with some kind of veggie meat
06:24 to do a taco.
06:25 So there's a lot,
06:27 but we're going to mix this today
06:28 in our southwestern chickenless chicken salad.
06:30 Oh, my.
06:31 So that's what we're going to use it today.
06:32 But here we go, and we've got this...
06:34 It's that simple. Yeah. And we're done.
06:36 And I just like try to store it in a little jar
06:40 and you know, you make it ahead of time
06:41 and you have it and it lasts.
06:43 So we're going to get to it. I'm going to try this.
06:45 It's like a little seasoning.
06:46 I get my little seasonings.
06:48 Exactly, you know, I do have a few seasonings in my cookbook
06:52 because, you know, sometimes when we see them,
06:54 they can be expensive and they also can be,
06:57 you know, filled with a lot of additives
06:58 and you know what?
07:00 We're trying to, to go as healthy as we can
07:03 and simplistic.
07:04 So here we go. We got to put that in...
07:06 Look at that.
07:08 Just put it in a jar. That's right.
07:09 And I'm going to save some for our chickenless...
07:13 Oh, just smell good. Chicken salad, Yeah.
07:15 Smells like a taco, right?
07:17 Yes, it does smell like a taco.
07:19 It's spectacular. How's that?
07:22 All right, so...
07:23 Delicious, and we're going to go to our,
07:25 what is it, the chickenless?
07:27 Yes.
07:28 Chickenless southwestern chickenless chicken salad.
07:31 All right. Let's look at that recipe.
07:32 All right.
08:05 All right.
08:07 Let's do this southwest chicken salad.
08:09 All right.
08:10 This is exciting because you can make chicken
08:12 without the chicken.
08:14 Exactly.
08:15 I'm actually using a product called Butler soy curls.
08:18 I love them because the texture is amazing,
08:20 but you know,
08:22 they are so minimally processed.
08:23 They're actually just soy.
08:26 And it's kind of...
08:28 I've actually called the company
08:29 just because I couldn't believe it.
08:30 It's really just soy that they, they dehydrate,
08:34 but they extrude out to make these like long,
08:36 you know, soy curls.
08:38 And what we're going to do today
08:39 is we're going to rehydrate them.
08:41 They come dried.
08:42 And so, we're going to just rehydrate them in some water,
08:44 and I'm going to mix in some chicken style seasoning.
08:47 Oh, that's delicious.
08:49 So it's gonna give it a little, chickeny like flavor.
08:51 So we're going to just take a couple of minutes to...
08:53 It looks like you can make soup with that?
08:54 You could.
08:55 I do actually, I use it all the time.
08:57 You can use this any way you would use chicken.
08:59 Like if you had some chop chicken
09:01 or, you know, in anything, any recipe.
09:04 I use it a lot because it's really just,
09:07 it's just soy.
09:09 That's it. There's nothing else in it.
09:10 And it's, and they only use non-GMO soy,
09:13 so it's very healthy.
09:15 That's what I like.
09:16 Non-GMO, that's really good.
09:18 I can turn this down actually, because...
09:20 It doesn't take long too? No.
09:22 What we're going to do is we just want to get
09:23 some of that flavor hydrated into the, into the soy curls.
09:27 So we're just going to let that go for just,
09:29 sit there for a couple minutes and while we're doing that,
09:31 we'll put together our dressing.
09:33 Okay.
09:34 So we have, let me see here, take this little bowl here.
09:39 And what we have is we have some just plant-based mayo.
09:42 You can make this yourself.
09:44 It's pretty easy.
09:45 Is that in your cookbook?
09:47 I have three mayo recipes in my cookbook.
09:49 That's funny that you asked that,
09:51 because I have a one that's a tofu, very simple.
09:53 I have one that's aqua fabulous using aquafaba,
09:56 which is the liquid from chickpeas or beans.
10:01 And then I also have a cashew mayo.
10:02 So I have three different ones.
10:04 So it can be, you know, for the person who is soy free,
10:06 they can try a different type.
10:07 A person who is not free, you could try a different type
10:10 and somebody wants to avoid oil,
10:11 you've got two other choices.
10:12 Oh, Carin.
10:14 So we try to...
10:15 I try to please as many as I could.
10:17 That cookbook is amazing.
10:19 Real quick, my husband,
10:20 I showed my husband the cookbook.
10:22 He says why isn't a cookbook like this in a bookstore?
10:26 Well, I hope someday it could be.
10:28 Like Barnes and Nobles or something,
10:29 these big bookstores.
10:31 It is just fabulous cookbook. Thank you very much.
10:33 I had a great team that worked on it.
10:35 You had a great team.
10:36 I had a great team that worked on it, sure.
10:37 Yeah, and that's good. So let's continue with this.
10:39 All right.
10:40 So I have our mayo, I'm going to take some of our,
10:42 the taco seasoning that we just made.
10:43 Oh, yes.
10:44 And we're going to mix that in, along with some lime juice.
10:47 Lime, okay.
10:49 And some cilantro, some for just chopped.
10:51 I just love cilantro.
10:53 My husband can put cilantro on everything.
10:55 He loves cilantro. My husband does too.
10:57 They say, you know, that taste, some taste buds
10:59 just don't agree with cilantro, but I'm a cilantro lover.
11:02 My husband is, so we're good, so...
11:05 You just mix it up together.
11:06 Yeah, I'm just making this... It looks like a dip.
11:08 Well, it could be,
11:09 you could easily do it as a dip.
11:11 You know and that's another thing
11:12 the taco seasoning.
11:13 We didn't even think about that.
11:15 We could have said you could make like a taco dip.
11:16 Look at that,
11:18 just gets your tortilla chips in.
11:19 They're perfect, right? Yeah.
11:21 Look at that
11:23 and this is going to be the chicken salad?
11:25 Yes.
11:26 This is going to be our...
11:27 Southwest. Southwest chicken salad.
11:29 So there is our seasoned mayo.
11:32 Yes. Oh.
11:34 There we go.
11:35 I'm so excited
11:37 because I can't wait to try these recipes.
11:38 All right.
11:39 So now what we can do, actually, I'm going to take
11:41 one of these little bowls back.
11:42 So I'm going to use that to drain our,
11:47 the soy curls
11:49 so we can actually just take them out now.
11:51 Then they're pretty much hydrated.
11:53 See if I can get these out.
11:56 Oh, that was so fast. Yeah.
11:58 They don't take long at all, and that's good.
12:00 And you know what?
12:01 Then they've absorbed now not just the water,
12:03 but that chicken style seasoning,
12:04 which is going to give them a little extra flavor.
12:06 That flavor, yes.
12:08 Is it, is this like tofu?
12:11 You know, it's similar because we're using soybean,
12:15 but tofu is actually taking away
12:16 from the bean.
12:18 This actually has fiber in it
12:20 because tofu is made from soy milk
12:22 where this is actually the soybean itself
12:26 that they kind of process.
12:28 And again, like I said, it's minimally processed.
12:30 It's just soybeans.
12:31 And then what they do is they extrude it
12:33 through some kind of fancy machine they have,
12:36 and then they dehydrate them and they're ready to go.
12:38 And the texture is amazing.
12:40 You can really... Yeah.
12:42 You can really see that it's kind of chicken.
12:44 Chickeny, yeah.
12:45 I like the way you said that.
12:47 It's a little chickeny. Little chickeny.
12:49 Oh my, and the ingredients,
12:51 they're all natural ingredients,
12:53 no preservatives, none of that.
12:54 And that's the thing,
12:56 when you're making things at home,
12:58 you get the opportunity to put in what you want.
13:00 And that means that you can really,
13:02 you know, treat your family right with good nutrition.
13:04 Yeah, yeah.
13:06 Right, I think I got them almost all out.
13:07 Oh, yeah.
13:09 Oh, my.
13:10 So you could do, you could double this
13:12 and make a big batch.
13:13 Oh, absolutely.
13:15 So what I'm doing now is I'm pressing down
13:17 to get the excess water out of it.
13:23 Wow.
13:24 Okay.
13:25 And I broke these soy curls in pieces
13:28 before we, we rehydrated them.
13:31 But if you wanted to just run a knife through them
13:33 and make it even smaller
13:35 so that it would be a little bit, we can do that.
13:38 I'm going to actually do that a little bit.
13:40 So we're going to move that. All right.
13:43 We can move that now.
13:45 Done with that.
13:46 Take some of these out of here.
13:52 And that'll help them cool down a little bit too.
13:53 Yes.
13:55 Okay, look at that.
13:57 All right, so we're going to stir with that.
13:58 So, I'm just going to just chop them up a bit
14:03 because when we're making chicken salad,
14:04 we want to stay on the sandwich.
14:05 You know how sometimes if you have
14:07 a big chunk of something, it'll fall right off.
14:09 We don't want that to happen.
14:10 So we want to kind of...
14:12 Very good.
14:15 Okay, make it nice and tiny.
14:17 Yeah.
14:18 Oh, this is going to be delicious, I could tell.
14:22 Got the right knife, chop it up in pieces,
14:25 make it as,
14:27 you're trying to make it real small as you can.
14:29 Okay. Make it bite size.
14:31 But you know what?
14:32 If you like it chunky, you can leave it chunky too.
14:34 If you're just doing it, like as a salad,
14:36 you could leave it a little chunkier.
14:37 But since I want to put it on a sandwich,
14:39 I just want to have it.
14:40 So it mixes nice
14:42 with the rest of the vegetables.
14:43 So we can now stick this in our mixing bowl.
14:48 Ah, very good.
14:52 It's nice and soft.
14:53 Oh, yeah.
14:54 Chunky soft.
14:56 Can you smell it?
14:58 I do. Yeah.
14:59 So because of that chicken,
15:01 that chicken style seasoning
15:02 and chicken style seasoning,
15:04 you know, it's called chicken style seasoning,
15:05 but it's only chicken style.
15:07 It's not chicken seasoning.
15:08 So it's kind of like a bouillon
15:10 but it's only, you know, herbs and things of that nature.
15:14 So it gives it like that chickeny flavor
15:17 without using any kind of chicken fat
15:19 or chicken, chicken broth.
15:20 All right.
15:22 So I'm going to use some celery, chopped celery.
15:23 I love celery.
15:24 Chopped celery, a little bit of onion.
15:26 All right.
15:28 A little bit of red peppers.
15:31 We'll mix this up and then we'll put in our mayo,
15:34 and we will have our salad, chicken salad.
15:36 Wow. Look at this.
15:39 I feel like I want to go home and make this today.
15:44 You made us that, what is this?
15:47 This sauce, what you made it?
15:48 It's just a seasoned mayo.
15:50 You made it so fast.
15:53 You know, sometimes when you have things on hand,
15:54 you know, we made that taco seasoning.
15:56 All we did was add in a few things
16:00 and we had our nice seasoned mayo,
16:05 You know, we could, anyone could make this,
16:07 doesn't have to be a picnic.
16:09 You can make this for lunch...
16:11 You know, that's right. Anything.
16:13 Yeah. It's just so simple.
16:16 Oh, well that's your slogan.
16:17 Simple, nutritious and delicious, and so...
16:22 Look at the color in that.
16:24 Oh, my, beautiful.
16:28 Then you know, of course, if you don't like onion,
16:29 don't put onion in it.
16:31 If you don't like red pepper, put in what you like.
16:33 So true.
16:35 If you don't like cilantro, you can still make this.
16:36 You don't have to put the cilantro in it.
16:38 But here is our chickenless.
16:40 Wow. Wow. Wow.
16:41 And we can down now just actually do it.
16:43 Put it into bread. We'll put.
16:44 We'll make a nice sandwich.
16:46 And then we can put the rest in that bowl.
16:48 Oh, I see. Well, we don't do that.
16:50 Look at that.
16:54 Ah-ah, you don't need mayonnaise everything is in.
16:57 It's in. Everything is there.
17:00 All the delicious natural ingredients,
17:03 but yet tasty and good for you.
17:06 Exactly. And you know what?
17:07 If it doesn't taste good, nobody is going to eat it.
17:10 We can take that paper off there
17:11 and make a little tomato.
17:15 So you're garnishing it.
17:16 Some little avocado.
17:19 Oh!
17:22 Uh!
17:24 What a sandwich.
17:26 It is, it smells good.
17:28 It looks good and I'm sure it tastes good.
17:32 So put avocado on there.
17:34 So you...
17:35 Oh, I bet your husband gets some good meals.
17:38 I would love to come to your house for lunch.
17:41 We, you know, it's funny that we were,
17:43 we'd been home recently
17:45 because, of course, the COVID
17:48 and so we've been home a lot.
17:50 So he's been getting fed well.
17:52 Oh, I'm sure. He has been being fed well.
17:54 I'm sure. That is so beautiful.
17:58 Uh, look at you.
18:02 And there.
18:04 Look at that.
18:06 There is our sandwich like that.
18:07 Look at this, folks.
18:09 This is a sandwich that you would want to eat.
18:13 That is going to be delicious, nutritious and...
18:17 Simple. Simple.
18:18 Simple first, nutritious and delicious.
18:20 Yeah, yeah. Wow!
18:22 Well, thank you. We're going to this.
18:24 I'm just looking forward to the next recipe.
18:26 What is the next recipe?
18:28 Our next recipe is our citrus cilantro slaw.
18:56 Okay. Citrus cilantro slaw.
18:59 Yes. That's interesting.
19:01 Where did you get that name from?
19:03 Oh, well, you know what?
19:04 I just use whatever ingredients I had
19:05 and put it in the title.
19:07 How is that? Oh, okay.
19:08 So tell us about this?
19:09 Well, you know it's just a variation,
19:12 a nice, fresh, vibrant.
19:13 Well, it's raw. That's right.
19:15 It's a raw dish because we've got a raw,
19:17 a raw menu.
19:19 I mean raw ingredients here.
19:20 And you know, when we cook foods,
19:22 we lose nutrition.
19:24 So we want to eat as many raw foods as we can.
19:26 So this is a nice way to do it like a salad,
19:28 but in a different way.
19:29 So I'm using some red cabbage and also some,
19:31 although I don't know why they call it red
19:32 because it's technically like a purple.
19:34 It looks purple to me.
19:35 That's right, but this is red cabbage
19:37 and the little green cabbage.
19:38 So I'm just using both of those.
19:39 Okay.
19:41 And I call it a party in the bowl
19:42 because I take the colors.
19:43 That's why I use both colors
19:45 because I think it's so vibrant when you're done.
19:46 You're going to have a little bit of that green
19:48 and the red,
19:50 and then I've got some grated carrot.
19:53 Nice fresh carrots.
19:56 Look at those colors, just...
19:58 We're going to get green, aren't we?
19:59 Yeah, and we got cilantro.
20:01 This is where the cilantro,
20:03 again, you can make this without the cilantro,
20:04 if you don't like cilantro.
20:05 My favorite cilantro.
20:07 But cilantro really brings a burst of flavor here.
20:09 So my sweetener today, I'm using some honey,
20:12 but you could use any liquid sweetener
20:13 you want, whether it's raw blue agave
20:16 or liquid stevia.
20:17 So you could use,
20:19 you could use a little bit of that
20:20 or even maple syrup.
20:21 Although, I think maple syrup might give it
20:23 a little different taste,
20:24 but the honey or the raw blue agave
20:26 work perfect with this.
20:27 What do you call the agave?
20:29 It's a raw blue agave.
20:30 The blue agave is the type of cactus.
20:32 And then the raw one
20:33 is not that it's not heated or processed.
20:36 So it's still a raw food.
20:37 Oh, that's interesting. All right.
20:39 We've got our lime juice.
20:40 You can use lemon if you want.
20:42 But I think I like the lime with the cilantro
20:45 and all these vegetables.
20:47 So the lime and I like to put
20:49 just a bit of olive oil in here.
20:51 It just gives it a little bit of that texture
20:54 and that mouth-feel that we look for,
20:57 and then a little bit of salt.
21:00 Put that in there
21:01 and this is a chop and mix, right?
21:04 Yeah.
21:05 A one bowl salad
21:09 and it's just got all those pretty colors.
21:11 Oh I love it. Absolutely.
21:13 So, yeah, it is coleslaw. Yes.
21:14 It's a cole...
21:16 It is just a variation of a coleslaw.
21:17 Can you add raisins?
21:19 You could do that. Yeah, of course you could.
21:21 This is, I think every recipe you should make your own.
21:23 Yeah.
21:24 You know, you take,
21:25 take a recipe and use it as a guide.
21:27 And then you just put the flavors that you like
21:30 and you experiment, you know,
21:31 and you use the things that you have in your house.
21:33 Sometimes I'm out of this and out of that.
21:35 And I just figure it out, but there it is.
21:37 That's all we need to do.
21:38 It's that simple. That's right.
21:40 And that's our citrus cilantro slaw.
21:42 Let's put that in a serving dish.
21:44 Oh, put that in a dish, yes. Okay, putting in here.
21:46 Look at that.
21:48 You know, dishes, pretty dishes makes the food even look good.
21:52 I think we start eating with our eyes first.
21:54 Yes we do, eye-candy they call it.
21:55 That's right.
21:57 And that's what we're doing here.
21:58 That's some good eye candy
22:00 with delicious, healthy food made simply by Carin Lynch.
22:05 There we go,
22:07 isn't that festive and colorful.
22:08 There we go.
22:10 So there's our citrus cilantro slaw.
22:11 Citrus cilantro slaw, made simple.
22:16 Wow.
22:18 Okay, Carin, I am so excited.
22:19 We got to move on to the next recipe.
22:22 What is it?
22:23 Our next recipe is our amazing stuffed eggs.
22:26 Oh!
23:18 Now, this recipe
23:19 I'm so looking forward to stuffed eggz.
23:23 How do you spell it? E-G-G-Z.
23:27 Or Zed if you are in England.
23:29 That's right. Or Australia.
23:30 Eggz.
23:31 Eggz, that's right. Okay.
23:34 All of us are looking forward to this.
23:35 My version of a stuffed egg you know a lot of times
23:39 and a lot holidays or picnics,
23:41 you have an appetizer
23:43 and you have that stuffed egg,
23:44 well,
23:45 just because we're plant-based vegetarian
23:47 doesn't mean we can't have a stuffed egg.
23:50 How's that? That's great.
23:52 Let's do this. All right.
23:53 Well, so we're going to start by making our whites.
23:57 So I'm using today soy milk,
23:58 but you could use almond milk if you want,
24:00 this is plain though not sweetened.
24:02 In fact, you have to buy
24:03 unsweetened or make it yourself.
24:06 That's unsweetened.
24:07 So we're going to put that in there.
24:10 Okay.
24:12 And I'm using some agar-agar powder.
24:15 Agar-agar is,
24:17 you probably know what it is
24:19 and don't even know what it is.
24:20 Agar-agar. All right.
24:22 Well, a lot of times with people
24:24 that do a lot of plant-based cooking,
24:26 it becomes like a gelatin.
24:27 So it's going to be a...
24:29 It's going to be something
24:30 that's going to firm up our egg white.
24:32 But it's actually, when you were a young child
24:35 and you were in high school,
24:37 you actually took biology, right?
24:39 And biology, they had it in the Petri dish
24:41 we're looking at things in the microscope.
24:44 Well, the substance
24:45 inside the Petri dish was Agar-agar.
24:47 And it kept the little sample from swimming away, right?
24:50 But it's actually a red algae and or a seaweed.
24:55 And so, we can use that.
24:57 And it's actually, it makes, it's like,
24:59 it just makes a great like gelatin type thing.
25:01 It has no. It's no scent and no flavor.
25:03 So you can use it for anything desserts
25:05 or we're making it for...
25:06 Agar.
25:08 Agar or in other countries, they call it agar.
25:10 It's agar-agar or agar-agar or agar or agar.
25:13 And I'm now I'm going to make the egg flavor.
25:15 I'm using something called black salt, kala namak,
25:18 something that you probably would have
25:20 to get in about an Indian grocery store
25:23 because it's native to India,
25:26 but it is a salt that has a very salt free flavor,
25:30 which gives it a little bit of an egg taste.
25:32 So it's something that we can use in these eggs.
25:35 It's going to give the one bit.
25:36 Can you add more if you want? Absolutely.
25:38 If you want a little eggier flavor,
25:40 usually the whites aren't too eggy.
25:42 Usually so we're, so we're going to actually put
25:43 some in our yolk too, our yolk.
25:46 So we're going to let this,
25:47 bring this to a boil and once it boils,
25:49 maybe just let it simmer for about a minute.
25:53 And then we're going to go ahead
25:54 and I'm going to pour it just in this little container,
25:57 this little gravy boat,
25:58 because I wanted to be able to pour it
26:00 into our egg molds.
26:02 You see here I have the...
26:03 Egg molds, tell us where you get these
26:05 'cause...
26:06 I bought these online on Amazon.
26:08 I'm a great Amazon shopper
26:09 because I'm not home very often.
26:12 It's just silicone.
26:13 It's just a silicone egg mold.
26:15 And I think people use it for candy
26:17 and things of that nature,
26:18 but we're making eggs with it today.
26:20 Like Easter eggs. Easter eggs, yeah.
26:21 A lot of times I think that's what they're used for.
26:23 So you can get them pretty inexpensive.
26:25 And, but this is actually a great recipe
26:27 that you could make an egg salad with.
26:29 You can use this same recipe
26:30 and not make the eggs themselves.
26:32 Just make, take this, make this white's mixture,
26:35 put it on a baking sheet and let it cool
26:39 and then what you can do is just chop it up,
26:40 like the whites of the eggs.
26:42 Oh, nice.
26:43 So you let that boil a little?
26:45 Yeah, we're just going to bring this up to a boil
26:48 and then we will pour it into our molds.
26:51 And then you refrigerate it maybe 20 minutes
26:54 you know, not too long.
26:55 And they'll, it'll start to firm up,
26:57 and actually, we have some done already,
26:58 so we'll let you see those in a minute.
27:01 I'm going to strain it through this strainer only
27:04 because sometimes when you boil something,
27:05 it gets a little air bubbles.
27:06 Oh, yes.
27:08 And I want the egg, the egg whites
27:09 to kind of not be bubbly on the top.
27:10 That's right.
27:12 So sometimes they'll get a little airy on top.
27:13 So I'm just going to put it through that.
27:15 You don't have to, but I just do it as steps.
27:17 I will do it 'cause I'm learning from you,
27:20 Carin, I'm going to do exactly what you do.
27:22 And this is in the cookbook?
27:24 Well, you know, the egg salads in the cookbook.
27:26 What I did was
27:28 since we were doing a picnic today,
27:29 I thought this would be a nice variation
27:31 to make the eggs themselves.
27:33 So, you have the recipe,
27:34 but I also put a little chef note
27:36 in my cookbook that says, you could make this.
27:39 If you use egg molds, you could make a stuffed egg.
27:42 You know, it smells eggy.
27:44 Really?
27:45 A little bit of eggy.
27:46 It does have that boiled eggs smell,
27:49 like you're boiling eggs right now.
27:50 There you go. We are but.
27:52 We are almost, almost.
27:54 But it's not real eggs, right?
27:56 Healthier eggs. All right.
27:58 So this is just coming up to a boil now.
28:00 So I'm going to just let that. See the bubble.
28:03 So here it goes, so this is such a...
28:06 How did you think of this recipe?
28:08 You know, I saw something similar
28:11 in a cookbook or something, a plant-based cookbook.
28:13 And I said, I could make this into an egg.
28:15 You know what I mean?
28:17 So I figured then let me try it,
28:18 and I did, so let's go ahead and...
28:20 That's great.
28:22 Just gonna. Yeah.
28:23 That's a great idea. You're left-hander.
28:25 I am a left-hander. Right. Oops.
28:27 Yeah.
28:29 Here we go.
28:31 Piping hot. Yeah.
28:33 So we're going to...
28:34 See how it can get a little foamy.
28:35 So that's why I just figured let's go through it.
28:37 Make that smooth.
28:39 Let's go right through the strainer.
28:41 Okay.
28:43 Okay?
28:44 Oh, look at that.
28:46 I'll move that over here. Like a sauce.
28:47 There you go.
28:49 And you could see, it's gotten now
28:50 little bit of thickness,
28:51 so I'm just going to pour it into these molds.
28:55 And again, if you're doing an egg salad,
28:57 you can just pour it maybe on like
28:59 some parchment paper on a baking sheet like this,
29:02 or on a silicone, you know, pad,
29:07 so that it doesn't stick.
29:08 Right.
29:10 It's a good idea. Yeah.
29:12 I have parchment paper at home.
29:16 So you just pour it in? Yeah.
29:17 Just pour it in,
29:19 just like that to get these and this.
29:22 I figured this makes six,
29:23 this recipe makes 16 little eggs.
29:26 Sixteen eggs.
29:28 Eggless eggs. Eggless eggs.
29:30 What'd you call it again? Eggz.
29:32 Amazing stuffed eggz.
29:36 With the Z, Zed.
29:39 Beautiful.
29:40 Oh man, this is,
29:42 everyone here the camera crew,
29:43 everyone's looking forward to try this.
29:45 All right.
29:46 So what I'm going to do,
29:48 I put this on a baking sheet like this,
29:49 because see silicone things
29:52 you could spill easily
29:53 if you were trying to carry them over.
29:54 So we're going to stick this in the refrigerator.
29:56 Okay.
29:57 She's putting it in the fridge
29:59 and with the magic of television
30:01 you're going to see the completed eggs
30:04 and it will be out in a few seconds
30:07 and it's going to be delicious,
30:09 but we're going to make the special pot to the eggs.
30:12 You know, all eggs have the yolk.
30:15 So the yolk is coming.
30:16 All right, here is the complete.
30:18 Here are our whites to our eggs.
30:22 How's that? Beautiful.
30:23 Look at this, everyone.
30:25 Isn't that gorgeous?
30:27 Absolutely beautiful.
30:29 And it looks and feels like an egg.
30:32 All right.
30:33 So now what we're going to do
30:35 is we're going to slide over here.
30:36 All right. We're going to switch places.
30:37 There we go,
30:39 and I'm going to make the yolk mixture.
30:40 Oh, oh.
30:41 So, what we're going to do is take
30:43 the rest of the ingredients in the blender.
30:44 So I have here some tofu.
30:47 Okay. And is that firm?
30:49 This is firm or extra firm, I think this one is firm.
30:51 Okay.
30:52 It doesn't matter though, you know,
30:54 as long as it's not silken tofu.
30:55 Right, why not silken?
30:57 Silken will be too watery.
30:58 It'll make it too thin. Okay.
31:00 You know, it's nice and smooth,
31:01 but it would make it a little thin.
31:02 Okay. All right.
31:04 That's our mayo, and for our yellow color,
31:06 we're going to use turmeric.
31:07 Oh, yeah.
31:09 I need that yellow yolk.
31:14 A little bit of regular salt, Himalayan pink,
31:16 a little lemon juice.
31:20 And I have the black salt again.
31:23 Oh, yeah. The sulfur smell.
31:25 That's right. And then what we can do.
31:27 Yeah.
31:29 Put that there, put our top on.
31:35 Here we go.
31:38 And we'll start this blender.
32:05 You use that to help mix it?
32:07 Yeah. Okay.
32:10 And, there's our yolks.
32:15 Oops. Splashing a little bit.
32:19 Yeah. I smell the egg.
32:21 Now it smells eggy, huh?
32:22 Boy, does it ever?
32:24 Yes. Go ahead, take what you need here.
32:25 You don't want that to fall 'cause it's a little messy.
32:28 There we go. Thank you. All right.
32:30 So I'm going to just use a pastry bag.
32:34 Ah.
32:36 We can just stick this in here.
32:38 And I don't know.
32:39 It could be a little, it seems like a little thin,
32:41 so it may not make,
32:43 I need to firm up a little bit in the refrigerator.
32:46 So we might not have the prettiest today,
32:48 but you can adjust,
32:51 you can adjust the tofu or get a little more
32:56 or add a little less mayonnaise.
32:59 Okay.
33:01 I just put that in a mason jar just because it'll...
33:07 Yep, this is kind of coming in already.
33:09 So we'll have to just do it in a different way.
33:12 Okay.
33:14 So what we can do is we take our eggs.
33:17 I'm just using a little melon baller here.
33:18 Yes. And you can see.
33:21 I have one of those.
33:22 You can, yeah, or you could use a spoon
33:23 if you don't have one of these, I'm just...
33:25 For me, I found it to be a little easier
33:27 just to pull out the center of that.
33:31 And then what I would do is, now this is a little thin,
33:36 so this is not going to give me the prettiness that I want.
33:38 Right.
33:40 But you're going to see that we can get.
33:41 Oh, nice.
33:42 It's not going to make a nice...
33:45 Looks pretty out there.
33:46 And then you would take just a pinch of that paprika
33:50 and you have a devil dag.
33:52 How's that? Oh, that is beautiful.
33:55 Can they see that?
33:56 I don't know if you could see this little one here,
33:58 the one she just did.
34:00 Absolutely beautiful.
34:01 And the paprika gave it that color.
34:03 Make a little something and give a little flavor too.
34:05 And a flavor.
34:06 Wow! Not bad.
34:08 On for our next recipe.
34:09 Okay, let's go.
34:11 What's the next recipe, Carin?
34:12 So our next recipe is tofuna salad,
34:15 macaroni salad.
34:17 Yep, tofuna macaroni salad.
34:46 Now, everyone enjoys macaroni salad.
34:49 I know I do.
34:50 And if you're going on a picnic
34:52 or it doesn't have to be a picnic, you...
34:55 I make macaroni salad at home for a Sabbath lunch
34:58 or having company come over
35:01 and people love, love, love macaroni salad.
35:04 Now, today we are making, what is it called?
35:07 It's tofuna... Okay.
35:09 Macaroni salad. Where did you get that name?
35:11 Well, it's tuna made from tofu.
35:13 So let's call it tofuna.
35:15 Oh. How's that?
35:16 Oh, it's like a tuna macaroni.
35:18 It's gonna be a tuna macaroni salad.
35:19 Woo!
35:21 For all those people out there that enjoy fish or tuna salads.
35:25 And I'm going to tell you, I'm going to give you
35:27 a great story about a friend of mine
35:30 who tried this one time and just loved it,
35:33 but we're going to start with,
35:34 actually, you take a block of tofu.
35:36 You can use from tofu or extra firm tofu.
35:40 And what you want to do
35:41 is drain out the water really good.
35:43 And you're going to put it in a freezer bag
35:45 and stick it in your,
35:46 stick it in your freezer overnight.
35:48 Oh.
35:50 And then you need to defrost it.
35:51 So this is a two dayer. Oh, my.
35:53 You need to think ahead when you're making this one.
35:55 Or if you keep a block in your refrigerator
35:57 or freezer, excuse me, that I do.
35:59 So, Carin, you boil your macaroni first?
36:01 Well, that macaroni.
36:02 Yep, we're going to boil that first.
36:03 Get that out the way, you know? That's right.
36:05 We've got our pasta ready to go.
36:06 But here, what we did was we squeezed out.
36:08 Then we defrosted that frozen block of tofu.
36:11 I defrosted it really well.
36:13 And then I squeezed out all the water.
36:16 So you can just use,
36:17 if you have a tofu press that works good.
36:19 Or if you take... A tofu press?
36:20 Yeah, there's such a thing,
36:21 but if you don't have a tofu press,
36:23 you can take two baking sheets
36:24 and kind of put them on one on top of the other tofu
36:26 and one underneath the tofu
36:28 and then just stick a heavy pot on top
36:30 and let that drain,
36:31 you know, and you get rid of all the water.
36:33 Oh, okay.
36:34 So, what you do then
36:35 is you're going to just take it
36:37 and I just take my hands like this.
36:39 It just makes it the easiest way.
36:41 And I just break it apart, crumble.
36:42 Yeah.
36:43 You can see that the tofu has a different texture
36:46 than was does when you're in the,
36:47 it's in the regular refrigerated section.
36:50 And this is kind of a meatier texture.
36:51 I think when people are looking for more of a meat substitute,
36:54 this is going to give them the illusion of having that,
36:57 that texture that meat has.
36:59 That's extra firm? This is...
37:01 Oh, this one might actually is just firm tofu.
37:02 Just firm?
37:04 But I did, like I said,
37:05 I drained the water out really well.
37:07 Yes.
37:08 So you can see it's like
37:09 kind of like a flaky consistency,
37:11 which is going to be our tuna.
37:13 Oh. Tofu tuna.
37:14 Okay. You're right.
37:16 It does kind of resemble tuna.
37:18 There you go.
37:19 So we've got our tofu crumbled here
37:21 and what I'm going to do is make the tuna first.
37:23 Okay.
37:24 So I got a little bit of the Bragg's liquid aminos.
37:26 That's a soy sauce substitute.
37:29 We've got some lemon juice.
37:31 I'm going to mix this up.
37:32 Now tofu is going to start absorbing all these flavors.
37:36 So I want to get this kind of mixed up now.
37:39 And then I'm going to add the ingredient
37:42 that's going to make this taste like tuna.
37:45 Oh. It's kelp powder.
37:47 Kelp? What is kelp?
37:48 Kelp is actually a seaweed.
37:50 It's just like a dried seaweed
37:52 and they grind it into a powder,
37:53 but it gives it that little bit of that fishy taste.
37:56 You know, it's a seaweed, so it's grown in the ocean.
37:59 So we are just mixing this up and getting that in there.
38:02 A seaweed is good for you, is it?
38:03 Absolutely.
38:05 It's got a lot of iodine in it and iodine again
38:07 is as important for our thyroid.
38:10 Yes.
38:11 So here, I'm getting this all mixed up
38:13 and now I'm just going to add our mayo.
38:16 Yum. Okay.
38:20 Now, you could buy the veggie mayo?
38:23 Sure, or you can make one yourself.
38:25 There's plenty. Yep.
38:29 You know, the aqua, one in my cookbook,
38:30 the aqua fabulous mayo is really similar
38:34 to a vegenaise instead of using a vinegar though,
38:37 because vegenaise has vinegar in it,
38:38 I use lemon juice
38:40 and it really comes out amazing.
38:42 Oh, nice.
38:43 So we just want to get this kind of mixed up
38:45 as our tuna salad.
38:48 I like that smell fishy.
38:50 Kind of scent smells fishy, right?
38:52 And then we're going to mix this in
38:56 with our macaroni.
38:58 I forgot here, we've got this mixed.
39:00 Now I'm using a brown rice pasta.
39:02 So this is a whole grain. That's brown rice pasta?
39:03 This is brown rice pasta.
39:05 You know, they have some great...
39:06 Really?
39:07 You know, so it's gluten free for people who are gluten free.
39:09 But it's a whole grain, you know,
39:11 I'm not a big fan of whole wheat pastas.
39:14 And so, when I want a whole grain pasta,
39:18 I try to use the brown rice
39:19 because I think that there's some great ones
39:21 on the market now
39:23 that just really have good texture.
39:26 And so this one is one of my favorites,
39:28 so brown rice.
39:29 And we're just going to mix this up.
39:31 I'm gonna try that pasta. I think I have.
39:37 Oh boy, once again that smell.
39:39 And then we're just...
39:40 What we're going to do is mix this in.
39:41 That's the tuna. Here's our tuna.
39:44 That's the tuna.
39:48 And then we'll get that whole mixed up,
39:51 thank you.
39:52 Let me get the rest of that in there.
39:54 And then I'll just mix in with our...
39:56 Yeah.
39:57 Our pasta and we'll have our macaroni salad.
40:00 Look at that,
40:03 and everything is pretty natural.
40:08 And it's simple, of course.
40:10 Of course, simple.
40:11 And I think that you don't have to use the kelp powder
40:13 if you don't want to, but I'm going to tell you,
40:15 it really gives it that tuna.
40:16 Now I said, I promised you a story, right?
40:18 Oh, I have a good friend. His name is Bobby.
40:22 And he, I grew up in the same church as him.
40:25 In New Jersey?
40:26 Yes, in New Jersey and Bobby, we were at a barbecue.
40:30 And I brought the tofu tuna macaroni tofu, tuna, right?
40:35 And so the tofuna,
40:36 and Bobby was an anti-tofu person.
40:39 Oh-oh. But I said, you know what?
40:41 I'm going to let Bobby try the tofu tuna macaroni.
40:44 So I was watching him at the,
40:47 you know, table taking all this food
40:48 and he took a nice big scoop of this.
40:51 And so I was just like, let's see what he does.
40:53 And I watched him eat the whole thing.
40:55 What?
40:56 I watched him eat the whole thing.
40:57 He didn't like tofu? He doesn't even know it's tofu.
40:59 That's the key.
41:01 So I said to Bobby, I said, "Oh Bobby,
41:02 how was the tuna macaroni salad?"
41:04 He goes, "It was delicious."
41:05 I said, "Really Bobby, it was tofu, Bobby."
41:08 He couldn't believe it.
41:09 But I have to tell you, Bobby
41:10 is one of the biggest believers in tofu now.
41:12 Not only is he a big believer,
41:14 but he's, yeah, he's such a supporter
41:16 of the ministry.
41:19 He was a helper in all my cooking classes
41:20 when I used to do.
41:22 Yeah.
41:23 He used to work and help assist me
41:25 in my cooking classes in our church,
41:26 local church.
41:27 But that is our tofu macaroni. Look at that.
41:29 Now, you've been making this a long time,
41:31 so you've perfected this?
41:32 I have, I've been making it forever.
41:34 How's that?
41:35 And it looks amazing.
41:37 So, we'll put this one.
41:38 I'm going to go with this 'cause I'm left-handed.
41:40 Oh, that's right, I'm left-handed,
41:42 so we can always have a nice display.
41:45 Yes. Take it out of the mixing bowl.
41:48 And then, of course,
41:49 how you make your macaroni salad?
41:50 You put what you like in it.
41:52 I like celery, carrot and onion in mine.
41:55 I do too.
41:56 And then sometimes I put the vegetarian meat, wham.
42:00 Oh yeah. In little pieces.
42:01 In little chunks, right? Little tiny, tiny chunks, yeah.
42:03 And I put that in it and mix it up.
42:05 Now you have an alternative, you can do a tofuna macaroni.
42:08 Oh my.
42:10 Oh, the smell, the scent.
42:12 It's just...
42:14 You wouldn't know that it wasn't tuna.
42:16 I'm telling you Bobby didn't know.
42:17 If Bobby didn't know, nobody would know.
42:19 Okay.
42:20 I'm sure there's somebody out there
42:22 has a Bobby that they know.
42:24 That's right. Everybody knows a Bobby.
42:26 Yes.
42:28 And so you need to try this on your Bobby.
42:30 That's right.
42:32 They won't know. They won't know.
42:34 So there is...
42:35 Look at that.
42:37 Nice serving. A nice serving.
42:39 A good substitute for a tuna macaroni salad.
42:44 Perfecto, wow.
42:46 Okay. Carin, Carin.
42:48 I'll pick Nick meal is absolutely delicious.
42:52 We have one more recipe to go.
42:54 Let's go do that right now.
42:55 So we have our tropical chia delight.
43:18 Okay.
43:21 Well, we are going to make our tropical chia delight.
43:25 Yes. Which I'm excited about.
43:28 So, the taste of the tropics, how's that?
43:30 Oh, see, I'm a tropical girl.
43:31 There you go.
43:32 I'm a Caribbean girl
43:34 and pineapple always add such flavor.
43:36 You know, everybody likes pineapple with coconut.
43:38 So I did a pineapple and coconut chia pudding.
43:41 How's that? Ooh.
43:43 Yeah, and you are going to realize
43:45 how easy this is.
43:46 Oh.
43:48 I'm using just a can of crushed pineapples today,
43:50 but you could, you could take fresh pineapple
43:52 which would even be better.
43:53 And you can just put it in a food processor
43:55 and crush it yourself and blend it.
43:57 So with the juice, so we keep the juice in there.
43:59 Yes. I'm adding the chia seeds.
44:02 We've quarter cup of chia seeds there,
44:04 and we've got coconut milk.
44:07 Now this is canned coconut milk.
44:10 You want to use the canned coconut milk.
44:11 And the reason why
44:13 is because it's really got a creamier texture.
44:14 Coconut milk in the dairy section
44:16 is really cut with a lot of water.
44:19 So you're not getting that creaminess.
44:21 Yeah, I use coconut milk a lot.
44:23 And because this is a dessert,
44:25 we're going to add a little sweetener.
44:26 If you want it, this is healthy enough
44:28 for breakfast.
44:29 So if you wanted to make this for breakfast,
44:30 I would just probably not use as much sweetener
44:32 or none at all,
44:34 but I'm using a little raw blue agave today
44:36 just to sweeten it up because it's our dessert.
44:38 So we want to just a little touch of sweetness
44:41 at the end of our meal.
44:44 All right. Nice.
44:46 And then I'm just going to mix this up.
44:47 You just want to incorporate everything together
44:49 and then it goes in the refrigerator.
44:54 Oh, you refrigerate it. That's it.
44:56 And we're going to refrigerate it
44:58 probably for about two hours or so.
44:59 Yes.
45:00 So we won't have to wait for that because good news.
45:02 I've already made some.
45:04 The magic of television. That's right.
45:06 So you just mix it up? And that is it.
45:09 And then what we're going to do is you top it
45:10 with whatever your favorite topping is.
45:11 I toasted some coconut. I love toasted coconut.
45:14 So I toasted some coconut shreds
45:16 and I have some macadamia nuts.
45:17 Wait a minute, did you say you toasted it?
45:19 I did. How do you toast that?
45:20 I just put it in a pan,
45:22 a dry pan and on the stove
45:23 and just keep an eye on it until it browns a little bit.
45:26 Do you put oil on the pan? No not at all.
45:27 Not at all.
45:29 You don't need to, you know, coconut
45:30 has a lot of oil in it.
45:31 That's true. Yeah.
45:33 So I'm just going to pour this slowly,
45:34 'cause it's gonna want it to, I put it in.
45:36 I'm putting, displaying it in this glass
45:38 because I thought that was kind of fun.
45:39 Oh, yeah.
45:41 This looks like a fun dessert in this big glass like this.
45:44 It does.
45:46 Beautiful glass.
45:47 Now, you'd be surprised when we get that in there.
45:51 Now the chia seeds,
45:53 what they're going to do is they're really going to,
45:54 you know, do like 15 times their size
45:57 and really thicken this up.
45:58 So we're not going to put our toppings on yet,
46:00 but you would just top that like that.
46:02 And let me just move this aside
46:05 and we'll get rid of that because I want to bring out.
46:08 Well, she's going to bring the complete one.
46:13 What is it?
46:14 The tropical delight, tropical chia delight.
46:16 And we're gonna talk about chia when she comes back,
46:19 because those of you probably don't know
46:20 what chia is.
46:22 Many are not. There is our chia pudding.
46:24 How's that? Cheers.
46:27 This is absolutely delicious.
46:29 You just get a spoon, put it in there and voila,
46:33 and you refrigerate it for how long?
46:36 About two hours.
46:38 And I wouldn't, I would put the toppings on
46:39 right before you serve,
46:40 you know, 'cause you don't want them
46:42 to get soft.
46:43 You want them to have a little crunch,
46:44 that's the texture again.
46:46 Yeah.
46:47 But you said, you asked me about chia.
46:49 You know, chia is a great source
46:50 of omega-3 fatty acids.
46:51 Our diet in the United States.
46:53 We have so many omega-6 fatty acids
46:55 that we don't balance.
46:56 We need to incorporate more omega-3s,
46:58 which are anti-inflammatory.
47:00 Omega-6s are inflammatory to our body.
47:02 So we want a little more Omega-3.
47:04 So this is a great way to do it.
47:06 Like I said, it's an anti-inflammatory.
47:07 So, you know, it helps with inflammation with,
47:10 you know, things like arthritis
47:12 or any kind of health issues
47:14 and disease is inflammation in our body.
47:16 So it helps with that.
47:19 It just, it really has a lot of it's got
47:22 soluble and insoluble fiber.
47:25 So that means that it helps with,
47:27 you know, lowering our cholesterol.
47:28 Yes.
47:29 You know, and also lowers blood glucose levels.
47:32 And it also helps with elimination
47:34 because it's, you know,
47:35 it's got that fiber in it as well.
47:37 So it's a great, it's another super food,
47:40 you know, we have
47:41 a lot of those super foods out there,
47:43 but this is one of those super foods.
47:44 And you had a little fruit,
47:45 just a strawberry or something like that.
47:47 Oh, that would make it very pretty.
47:48 It would.
47:50 It would make, you could do, you can decorate this
47:51 any way you'd want.
47:52 And you know, I actually do this
47:54 with a mango puree as well.
47:55 Oh, mango.
47:57 And I use some mango nectar and make a mango chia pudding.
48:00 So you can use anything,
48:01 but I like the pineapple and the coconut mixed together.
48:04 So that pretty much is you know, a great dessert.
48:07 And like I said, you can make this as a breakfast,
48:09 it's so healthy.
48:10 Now, how did you think of all this?
48:11 This is just fabulous.
48:13 You know, chia, you know, is a great thickener.
48:15 We use it sometimes in baking and desserts
48:18 because it will thicken things.
48:20 So it easily thicken this to make it like a pudding.
48:23 We don't need to cook it on the stove or anything.
48:25 We can just use it like that. Wow.
48:27 Now you also have
48:29 a wonderful cookbook called simply.
48:32 It's Plant-Based Made Simple.
48:34 Plant-Based Made Simple by Carin Lynch and the front,
48:40 the front cover is, is that a veggie burger?
48:44 Actually is a jackfruit barbecue sandwich
48:47 with our cilantro slaw on it,
48:49 that we made the cilantro slaw.
48:51 So that's on the front cover.
48:52 So you get to see that cilantro slaw.
48:54 Didn't we do this on our previous program?
48:55 We did, when I was here a couple of years ago,
48:58 we made the barbecue sandwich.
48:59 We use, we did, we used it with mushrooms,
49:01 not with jackfruit.
49:02 And we made this, we made the barbecue, so yeah.
49:04 Wow!
49:05 So in that cookbook,
49:07 you have breakfast, lunch, dinner.
49:10 What else?
49:11 Sides and salads and soups. Soups.
49:14 I have desserts and I also have a miscellaneous
49:17 with smoothies and some seasonings,
49:20 the mayos, the condiments.
49:22 So you've got a little bit of everything.
49:23 You've got, you cover all the meals,
49:25 plus you've got a little extra.
49:27 You are an amazing woman.
49:29 Now, do you teach you say you also teach?
49:31 I do.
49:32 I not only go to churches
49:34 and do presentations
49:36 on requests by the churches.
49:38 But we also, and also schools and anywhere who,
49:40 anybody who calls, we actually, we try to accommodate them.
49:43 But also when I'm not on the road,
49:45 I teach at the Wildwood Lifestyle Center.
49:47 And tell us about the Wildwood Lifestyle Center?
49:49 Wildwood Lifestyle Center is a lifestyle center
49:51 that has been around since 1942.
49:54 So it's almost 80 years old.
49:56 It was the first lifestyle center,
49:58 as well as a medical missionary school
50:01 to teach people, to take,
50:03 they embrace the health message
50:04 and then go forth
50:05 and reach people by helping them with health.
50:09 So, we train missionaries to go out
50:11 as well as we have the lifestyle center there.
50:13 And we have plenty of guests from all over the world
50:15 that come to help restore health
50:17 and to maintain good health.
50:19 Have you seen people restore to good health?
50:21 I have seen people who come
50:23 with maybe type 2 diabetes maybe for 20 years,
50:26 on an insulin pump for 10 years.
50:29 Within 11 days have reversed their diabetes
50:32 and no longer using insulin.
50:34 Eleven days.
50:35 We have 11 day and 25 day programs.
50:37 Eleven, oh, you could go for 11 days?
50:39 You can do an 11 day or a 25 day program.
50:41 Wow.
