  • 2 cups chopped kale, ribs and stems removed, lightly packed
  • ¼ cup diced red onion
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or soy sauce alternative see Recipe Noes
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened pineapple juice
  • 1 tablespoons sliced almonds
  • 1 tablespoon chopped pecans
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger or ½ teaspoon dried ginger
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley, lightly packed or 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Instructions
 

  • Mix all ingredients in a large bowl. Toss well to coat. Chill in refrigerator for about 1 hour.
  • Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1/2 cup)

Notes

  • Substitute fresh spinach leaves for kale.
  • If you don't have both almonds and pecans, you can use one or the other. Pine nuts are another tasty option.
  • Use the shredding disc of a food processor to shred the sweet potatoes and parsnips.
  • Parsnips are root vegetables that are related to carrots. Although they are similar, parsnips are paler than carrots, with a somewhat bleached look. They also have a sweeter, stronger taste that is slightly tangy.

It's a certified non-GMO (not genetically modified) liquid protein concentrate, derived from healthy soybeans, that contains 16 essential and non-essential amino acids. Another option is Coconut Aminos.

 

Spaghetti Squash Stir-fry

Spaghetti Squash Stir-fry

Spaghetti Squash Stir-fry

The first time I cooked a spaghetti squash I was amazed at how the pale-yellow flesh came off in thin strands, just like its name says! This particular type of squash is a healthy substitute for pasta, especially for those who are looking for gluten-free options.
