00:01 Have you ever wondered exactly how to prepare healthy food
00:04 that actually taste good. 00:05 Well, stay tuned while Evita Tezeno 00:07 and your truly Nyse Collins show you just how to do it 00:10 and give you something better, A Taste of Paradise. 00:30 Welcome to A Taste of Paradise. My name is Evita Tezeno. 00:36 Now you know, my last name is Tezeno, 00:39 and you know that it's Creole. 00:41 And in the Louisiana territory, 00:45 we do pralines, yes. 00:49 Pralines... and I love pralines. 00:54 But pralines is not good for me, 00:57 because it has milk and sugar and it's cooked, 01:02 it's really burnt sugar, but guess what? 01:05 I came up with a recipe 01:07 that will put my grandmother pralines 01:09 to shame, yes, I did. 01:12 It is a raw delectable treat that will make your tummy happy 01:18 and it is sweet to your tongue. 01:20 So let's look at the recipe. 01:47 Okay, we're gonna start off with the dates. 01:50 And what I did was to take 12 of the dates 01:54 and I soaked them in water. 01:57 I did that so they will be a little soft, 01:59 so they will blend real well. 02:03 So these are 12 dates 02:05 that have been soaked in water overnight. 02:08 And then we have the nut milk. 02:12 And cashew milk is easy to make, 02:14 you just blend it in your blender. 02:17 One cup of cashews with three cups of water, 02:21 and you have your cashew milk. 02:23 You could put sweetener in it, if you want a little salt, 02:26 but this is just plain water and cashews. 02:32 And we want to blend it. 03:03 Okay, we want to process 03:05 until it's really, really smooth 03:08 and it's smooth, yes. 03:12 So then we put our honey, 03:16 and you could use any sweetener you want, 03:19 you know, you can use agave or you could use maple syrup, 03:22 but honey tends to be a little thicker, 03:26 and we want a kind of thickness to our batter. 03:31 So, you have vanilla extract, 03:34 and this is the vanilla with no alcohol mixture. 03:37 You read your labels to make sure 03:38 that the vanilla extract does not contain alcohol. 03:44 And this is not coconut oil, this is coconut butter. 03:48 It is, it's like the meat in the oil 03:52 combined to make a thick nice yummy butter, 03:59 and it emulsifies it makes it thick 04:01 and it makes it really, really creamy like, 04:03 'cause pralines has milk in it, so this is like your milk, 04:08 and the cashews too, blends together 04:11 and makes it like the milk base. 04:15 So you want to process this again. 04:37 And then I reserve the last four dates 04:41 that has not been soaked. 04:43 And I put these in, 04:45 so it gives it a little more thickness. 05:21 All right, we are ready. 05:27 So we take our bowl, and we take our blade out, 05:32 so we won't cut ourselves. 05:39 And we put our batter in the bowl. 05:53 And then we combine it with our pecans, 05:59 or as we say in Louisiana dialect, pecans. 06:11 Blend this, mix this together. 06:19 Now, if you don't have a dehydrator, 06:22 you can freeze these but I like them 06:29 when they come out in the dehydrator, 06:31 because they are more like the pralines that I'm used to 06:36 or the pralines that I'm used to, 06:38 but so I take a little 06:41 one tablespoon and a half measurement, 06:45 and I put them on the dehydrator sheet flexo. 06:51 And I dehydrate these at 110 degrees 06:56 for approximately 12 hours or overnight. 07:00 I did it for about 12 to 18 hours, 07:04 and wait till you taste them. 07:09 Look at the finish product. 07:13 I'm telling you these tastes very close to the pralines 07:17 that I grew up on. 07:19 Look at these, you can have these for breakfast, 07:21 because it's just fruits and nuts, that's all it is. 07:26 This has been another recipe 07:28 from the kitchen of Evita Tezeno. 07:30 Remember to live life fresh. 07:42 Are you stressed out? 07:43 Well, welcome to the club. 07:44 It happens to the best of us. 07:46 Life sometimes gets so crazy, you know, this is happening, 07:49 that's happening 07:51 and then sometimes when one thing, 07:52 bad thing happens, something else happens, 07:55 I guess you know what they say. 07:56 They say, when it rains, it pours. 07:58 And sometimes it doesn't just pour rain, 08:00 it's hale sometimes, and it hurts 08:02 and you don't know what to do anymore. 08:04 Stress is effecting us like there is no tomorrow. 08:07 And I know here at A Taste of Paradise, 08:09 we've been talking about some good delicious food, 08:11 food for this, food for that, 08:13 and so many things that are helpful 08:15 but even though you can eat the best food in the world, 08:18 it does us no good if we are under stress. 08:20 They've done like simple studies, you know, 08:22 they take two rats or whatever like that, 08:25 and they give one rat, you know, 08:26 no food to eat but give him opportunity to rest and so. 08:30 Then they gave another rat good healthy food 08:34 but then it just kept bothering that rat, 08:36 never allowing it time to rest. 08:38 And guess which one, 08:40 guess which one live the longest? 08:43 Well, the one that actually had no food actually did 08:46 or fared quite better 08:48 than the one who had good healthy food 08:50 but was never given time to what? 08:53 To rest, because when you are stressed out, 08:56 now that same food that you are eating 08:58 because the body hasn't had time to relax it so, does what? 09:02 It's now becomes actually like a poison to you, 09:06 because the body needs time to, what again? 09:08 Time to rest. 09:10 But you know what, 09:11 stress is not always a bad thing, 09:13 there're some good things to stress, 09:14 you ever notice when you're up there 09:16 walking every morning, 09:17 'cause you know, we encourage exercise, 09:19 you can eat all the right food in the world, 09:21 but if you don't exercise what good does it do? 09:24 Matter of fact, 09:25 National Geographic did a little health study, 09:27 and when they did the study the secrets of longevity, 09:30 they found that food only improves the quality 09:34 or helps out about may be two or three years of your life. 09:38 But they find that when you exercise, 09:41 exercise improves your quality by maybe four or even five, 09:46 so in many cases exercise will do 09:48 much more better or much better for you 09:51 than even just eating good healthy food, 09:53 'cause there's lot of people eat healthy food 09:56 but at the same time they are not, what? 09:58 Exercising. 09:59 So, exercising is crucial 10:01 and let me tell you about the stress 10:02 when exercising. 10:04 You know, when you're up in the morning 10:05 and you're walking and you're having a good time, 10:07 and then your neighbor has one of these big dogs 10:09 that they can't control. 10:10 Now don't get me in trouble. 10:12 Why do people have these dogs that are bigger than them 10:15 and they can't even control themselves, 10:17 and it's almost like the dog is walking them 10:20 instead of them walking the dog. 10:22 It's like the dog goes there, they go there 10:23 and the dog goes there, they go there, 10:25 but you ever notice maybe one time 10:26 that dog gets away from the owner 10:29 and you look like breakfast for the dog that morning. 10:32 Now, I'm gonna show you why stress is a good thing. 10:34 Stress does what? Stress is... 10:36 I'm not about to be breakfast for this dog, 10:39 and stress goes ahead, 10:40 and shuts down the normal process of the body, 10:42 and you all of a sudden you start, 10:45 you're basically qualifying for the Olympics, 10:47 that's what stress did for you. 10:49 You've seen the stories car accidents 10:51 and cars are on people, 10:52 and one gentleman under so much stress 10:54 he lifts the car off of the child 10:57 or something like that, 10:58 so stress is not always a, what? 11:00 A bad thing, sometimes it's good. 11:02 Even when somebody, 11:03 maybe you're driving a car one day, 11:05 and you just have to use the bathroom and you're like, 11:07 "Oh, man where's the next, you know, fast food place," 11:10 and then somebody all of a sudden 11:13 cuts you off 11:14 and then you put up the good finger and say, 11:16 "Yes, Jesus is coming, hang in there," 11:18 'cause I know you guys don't put up 11:20 any other fingers, amen. 11:21 And you say, "God bless you, go right ahead." 11:24 But what happened, what does stress do? 11:26 Stress shuts down the normal function of the body and what? 11:30 You realize you're driving five and ten minutes 11:32 and you forgot that you had to use the, what? 11:34 Use the bathroom, and then you say, 11:36 "Oh, man, I got to use the bathroom." 11:37 That's what stress did. 11:39 So it shut down the normal functions of the body, 11:41 helps you get through that stressor 11:43 and then it relaxes. 11:45 Now stress becomes a bad thing now 11:48 when it continues that way. 11:49 Some people are in situations, maybe they're on a job, 11:53 and their boss is always getting on them. 11:55 They get through the stressor that one day 11:57 but then tomorrow the boss does the same thing, 12:00 and then they stress out again, 12:01 and they stress out again, and they can't think. 12:04 Matter of fact, stress, depression, 12:06 they all run together. 12:07 You know what they say it is. 12:08 It's the inability to construct our future. 12:12 So you know how sometimes when you're so stressed out, 12:15 you don't even think about the future, 12:16 because you're just trying to get through today. 12:19 So today we're gonna look at some simple things 12:21 and you've seen on many of the programs before, 12:24 how there are some foods 12:25 we made a de-stressor for you sometime ago. 12:27 But today we're gonna look at some other foods 12:29 that could be helpful, 12:31 that would be very helpful for calming the system down 12:34 and I'll give you a simple little plan 12:36 before we go on what to do. 12:38 And matter of fact 12:39 before I even show you the food, 12:41 let me get to the source of this problem. 12:42 We have to find out 12:44 what is the source of the stress? 12:46 We have to ask ourselves, 12:47 now is it really the boss on a job, 12:50 or is this the job I should have 12:52 or sometimes people are stressed out 12:53 about paying bills, why? 12:54 Because unfortunately 12:56 we probably purchase homes that are too big, 12:58 seven bedrooms and we only use two, 13:01 or we buy the brand new cars 13:02 that we really don't need at the moment, 13:06 just buy a car, cash, 13:07 and so we unnecessarily put ourselves under, what? 13:11 Under stressor, so we have to identify 13:13 what is the true reason for that stress, 13:16 eliminate that problem 13:18 and then by only with God's help 13:20 and then you can start to use some of the good enjoyous foods 13:25 that God has given us to help calm the system, 13:28 but as he said over in John 5, 13:30 don't go back and make that same mistake, 13:32 'cause then a stress will come back even more. 13:34 So today we're gonna look at ten super foods 13:36 or ten super things that we can do 13:39 that'll help us deal with the stress. 13:42 Are you ready? 13:43 We're gonna start about five at a time, 13:45 'cause I don't wanna overwhelm you, 13:46 and we're gonna explain some of these things 13:47 and how they work so go ahead 13:49 and jot it down ten super foods to help fight against stress. 13:53 Here it is number one, 13:54 and one of my favorites, bananas. 13:57 Yes, I said bananas. 13:59 We'll look at that here shortly. 14:00 So bananas are very good super food for stress relief. 14:04 Number two, nuts. 14:05 There's many different types of nuts. 14:07 And we'll take a breeze at some of them 14:09 that work very well. 14:11 Number three, one of my favorite, 14:13 you all know it, quinoa, yes, not quinoa 14:17 but quinoa is how you pronounce it. 14:20 And number four, brown rice and pasta and oats, 14:25 these are whole grains that we'll see. 14:28 And number five, 14:29 let's just take a look at some of these items, 14:31 fruits, okay. 14:33 So we're gonna start with some of the bananas here. 14:35 As we see bananas is a very good food, 14:38 loaded with good natural carbohydrates 14:42 which is necessary for us. 14:44 Also the cool thing about bananas, 14:46 it gives you nice little boost up energy. 14:48 Matter of fact marathon runners, 14:51 unfortunately, 14:52 they're gonna put the body's under stress, okay. 14:54 They're about to run for hours at a time, 14:56 what do they bulk upon 14:58 for several days before the race? 15:01 Yes, bananas. Why? 15:03 Because it gives them good sustainable energy. 15:06 If you ever notice when we eat these little quick, 15:09 I don't want to call any by name, 15:11 but the donuts and the little cakes 15:13 and these little pastries, 15:14 I mean it makes you feel good at the moment, 15:16 but then what happens after the short period of time? 15:18 Boom, it comes crashing down. 15:20 But bananas are very good 15:22 because they give you sustainable energy, 15:25 and it will last throughout the day, 15:27 so go ahead and enjoy your banana day 15:30 will keep disease at bay, there you go, 15:32 'cause we don't want to keep the doctor away, 15:34 follow up with your doctor, let him know what you're doing. 15:35 So banana is good 15:37 and we also know it's good for potassium, 15:38 and all these other items. 15:40 I think I shared with you all before, 15:42 eat the food now and stay in good health, 15:44 don't try to... 15:46 Unfortunately when you're in a hospital. 15:47 We had one of our clients 15:49 she had like what is known as a mini stroke, 15:51 her blood pressure was increasing real high. 15:54 She went to the hospital, 15:56 they took her to the emergency room, 15:57 and the doctor's gonna put on, 15:59 I think a potassium pill or potassium drink 16:02 to help calm down the nerves and all of that stuff, 16:05 and you know what happened? 16:06 She's like, "No, I don't want to take the medicine, 16:09 give me a banana." 16:11 The doctor said, "I'm sorry. 16:13 You had opportunity to eat bananas 16:15 outside the hospital when you were okay, 16:18 now you're under my control or under my domain, 16:21 you're gonna have to follow this." 16:22 So please, let us eat the bananas 16:24 when we have the opportunity to do so. 16:27 So we have bananas. 16:28 Then let's look at some of the nuts here real quick. 16:30 We have one that we all know, 16:33 it even looks like the brain, yes. 16:36 And I'm talking about a simple item such as walnuts. 16:39 Walnuts are good, pecans are good. 16:41 We also have almonds as well. Almonds are phenomenal. 16:46 You can see the enjoyable almonds there. 16:48 These are the raw unsalted ones. 16:50 The walnuts help us to fight against stress and anxiety, 16:55 the almonds, what they do 16:58 is they stimulate the nervous system, okay. 17:00 So it helps you to be sharpen on point 17:03 not the feelings of apathy and depression you ever know, 17:07 like I said, what is depression, 17:08 sometime stress, the inability to construct our future. 17:12 So as a result, people have no hope for tomorrow 17:16 so let's use some of the foods 17:17 that will be helpful to clear our minds, 17:20 and avoid the foods that are clogging our minds, 17:23 you know, like the sugary item, a lot of fats, 17:27 and fried foods and we can avoid those items. 17:29 So we have walnuts which are good, 17:31 the almonds which are even better 17:33 to help fight against cholesterol. 17:35 It actually naturally lowers your cholesterol, 17:38 so nuts are good. 17:40 And we also have cashews. Everybody enjoy some cashews. 17:44 We even make cheese out of it, we made milk out of it. 17:48 Cashews are very good, why? 17:49 Because they are high in magnesium. 17:52 This is necessary not only for the mind 17:54 but also for the body. 17:55 If your bones and your muscles, sometimes you know, 17:58 when you have a lot of muscle pain, 18:00 cashews are good because what does magnesium do? 18:02 It naturally, gently relaxes the muscles of the system. 18:07 So who knew that 18:09 these simple nuts will be so good, 18:10 but I'm coming to one more nut and all of them are good, 18:13 well, what I'm talking about? 18:14 I'm talking about pine nuts. 18:17 Literally pine nuts are phenomenal. 18:20 This is what is known as like super brain food. 18:23 Yes, these little items here. 18:26 A lot of people see them in a store 18:28 and actually I pick these up, 18:29 they were almost 18, $19 a pound. 18:33 But you know what I ask myself? 18:35 I said look, I would normally in general if I was using 18:38 let's say, nothing against supplements, 18:40 but if I was using they say, 18:41 B complex is good for your mind, right? 18:43 When I go to the store and I'm buying a B complex, 18:46 that is like 19, $20. 18:48 And sometimes you already see it in your body 18:51 that when you take these extra items or supplements 18:54 or drinks or something, 18:56 you go to the restroom and it's like, 18:57 whoa, where did a yellow color come from? 18:59 And that's because the body is like 19:01 hey, I don't really know what this is, don't give me, 19:04 don't overwhelm me with this, but I would just buy pine nuts, 19:08 I know it costs a little bit more. 19:09 I said all is well when I purchase it. 19:11 But I know it's good for me, 19:13 literally you have to cut down a pine tree to pay for it, 19:15 but it's worth every single penny. 19:18 So invest in your body, 19:19 take care of yourself and enjoy the nuts. 19:21 Don't worry about the price or whatever like that, 19:24 you pay one way another, one person said, it is, 19:28 "You either pay and take care of yourself 19:31 while you're healthy, 19:32 or you pay to try to get better 19:35 and take care of yourself when you're sick." 19:37 So you all decide which time do you want to pay? 19:39 Pay while you're healthy, or pay when you're sick? 19:41 So these are some of the simple nuts 19:43 that we can enjoy. 19:45 Let's move on to one of my favorite 19:47 and we're talking about the grains. 19:48 We have the brown rice, pasta, or just brown rice. 19:52 We have whole grain pasta, delicious, look at this. 19:56 Yes, there is no reason 19:58 why we should be using white pasta anymore 20:00 because we have so many good types of whole wheat, 20:03 whole grain pasta. 20:05 I remember back in the days when I used to be young, 20:07 I don't think you all were around back then. 20:09 When they had whole grain pasta, 20:11 you knew it was whole grain. 20:13 That thing was dangerous for you, why? 20:16 You ate it, it was rough and tough 20:19 but the good thing is 20:20 and you've heard me probably say it before, 20:22 if it goes in rough, it normally comes out soft. 20:24 But the whole wheat pasta back in the days 20:25 it came out rough too, 20:27 but I know we're trying to talk about food here 20:29 and so let's not talk about number two. 20:31 So go ahead and enjoy some whole grain pasta. 20:34 If you don't, if you're not able to use gluten, 20:37 no problem you can do quinoa pasta. 20:40 And we also have the brown rice, 20:43 whole grain brown rice very nice, enjoyable. 20:46 These are sustainable foods, why? 20:49 Because along with the quinoa as we see here, 20:52 this is a little quinoa grain, 20:54 you all could take a quick look, 20:55 this is very good 20:57 and I'm just gonna show you real quick here 20:58 right next to it, 20:59 this is how it looks when it's cooked, 21:01 this one here. 21:03 Quinoa is very good for stress as well, why? 21:06 Because it's high in protein. 21:08 Do you know quinoa could actually be used 21:10 in place of meat, 21:12 because it has that much protein, 21:15 so quinoa is very good and very... 21:18 As you see there with the gluten again, gluten, 21:21 almost gluten free. 21:22 Then you have the oats. 21:23 Just a tad bit of gluten 21:25 and nothing wrong with the gluten per se, 21:27 it is sometimes we over do it, 21:29 so that's why people are trying their best 21:31 to avoid some of that. 21:33 So you have your grains there, all of these are fantastic, 21:37 healthful and nourishing for you. 21:39 And very simple, the quinoa only takes less than, 21:42 you've seen me do it before less than 20 minutes to make, 21:45 so there is no excuse. 21:47 I actually like to cook quinoa instead of brown rice, 21:49 don't tell brown rice, because I really love rice, 21:51 but why because it's so quick and easy. 21:53 And then one last one in our first five foods 21:56 that are good for stress is fruits. 21:59 All different types of fruits you enjoyed, 22:01 I just got the platter for you all, because, 22:04 you know, I've been cooking and it's just too much 22:06 but we have the platter, you have the pineapple. 22:08 The apple a day will keep disease at bay. 22:11 You have the grapes, 22:12 try to get them with the seed if you can. 22:14 And then you have the melons as well, cantaloupe, honeydew, 22:19 you name it, watermelon. 22:20 This is very good why 'cause they're high in water 22:22 which naturally does what?

26:17 It helps to calm that down and push out the... 26:20 I'll just say a gas. 26:22 I think gas is the greatest disease of them all. 26:24 Everybody's dealing 26:25 with some kind of bubbling sensation. 26:27 So ginger tea, they show works 26:29 and it does help to calm the nerves, 26:32 but what can you use instead of cinnamon 26:34 that is not irritating for the stomach. 26:36 And we've shared this before in different programs. 26:38 We can use coriander instead of nutmeg, 26:41 you can use cardamom. 26:42 But let's take a quick look at some of the other items 26:45 that we looked at here, 26:47 salad and veggies are very, very good. 26:49 You see the fruits go ahead and clean out the system, yeah. 26:53 Salads and veggies go ahead 26:54 and replenish the system with vitamins and minerals, 26:59 so that's something that everybody can enjoy. 27:02 And we talked about this just a little bit 27:04 the porridge, grains, all of these items, 27:06 so go ahead and have yourself some oat meal in the morning. 27:09 It will not only lower your cholesterol 27:13 but it will also calm the nerves, 27:16 so porridge is good. 27:18 And I have one other one. 27:19 I know we talked about salads and stuff, 27:21 and it's right here, take a look with me. 27:23 The secret, one of the secret super items here for stress, 27:27 you ready?
