Before sharing out of more healthy recipes, here are some great tips from a Be Wise-Health Wise reader on some other delicious ways to cook the Mahi Mahi Fish that I discussed in last week’s Be Wise.

“I too discovered the Mahi Mahi and it is really yummy.  I bread them in some egg and ground nuts – I especially like a mix of fine ground almonds with some fine coconut.  Cook them with fresh lemon juice.  I cook them in a small amount of Coconut OIl (virgin, organic of course).  And… I love baked sweet potatoes.”

Asian Turkey Burgers

1 pound ground turkey
1 small red bell pepper chopped
¼ small head Napa (or regular) cabbage, shredded
3 scallions finely chopped
1 large egg white, lightly beaten
2 Tablespoons basil finely chopped (or mint or cilantro)
4 teaspoons Bragg’s Liquid Aminos
2 teaspoons finely grated ginger root
½ teaspoon sesame oil
¼ teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon finely ground black pepper
2 Tablespoons olive oil
6 whole grain hamburger buns (gluten sensitive folks – use rice bread)

Mix together ground turkey, bell pepper, cabbage, scallions, egg white, herb, 2 Tablespoons Bragg Liquid Aminos, ginger, sesame oil, salt and pepper. Shape into 4 patties, about ½ inch thick.

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over high heat until hot. Reduce heat to medium, add burger patties. Cook 5 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Add more oil as needed.

If you would like to spice these burgers up a bit, mix these ingredients to make a spread:
¼ cup mayonnaise (I use the Follow Your Heart grape seed mayo)
1 ½ teaspoons prepared wasabi
¾ teaspoon Bragg’s Liquid Aminos
½ teaspoon sesame oil

Place burgers in a bun and spread with the mayo-wasabi sauce. Or just use mayo if you don’t like wasabi.

Happy eating.

Dr. Jo’s Super Salmon Appetizers

1 can salmon (from Alaska – least polluted and not farmed – I found these at Costco), discard the liquid
2 Tablespoons olive or grape seed oil
1 ½ Tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
½ teaspoon dried dill or herbs of your choice

Mix all of above together. Then spoon a dollop on a cucumber round, slice of jicama, or stuff celery. Top with a cherry tomato, sprinkles of sesame seeds, shreds of carrots or anything else you can imagine.

Raw Yam Appetizers

Slice a raw orange yam into thin slices
Spread almond butter on each slice
Sprinkle with mixture of cinnamon and stevia extract (1 Tablespoon cinnamon with 1/8 teaspoon of stevia)
Top with sesame seeds, walnut, raw macadamia nuts, pumpkin seeds or hemp seeds.
Do the same thing with slices of jicama.

Stuffed Mini-peppers (sweet bell type – they come in packages of yellow, orange and red)
Cut the top off each mini-pepper at the stem.
Scoop out any seeds left inside.
Then get creative. I stuffed them with the Dr. Jo’s Super Salmon appetizer mixture. Then plugged the hole with a sweet 100 cherry tomato or stuck the pointy end of a yellow pear tomato into the salmon mixture. You may be surprised at how yummy these are
I stuffed another set with almond butter and then put a small tomato or other vegetable in the hole. These are very colorful and fun.

Everyone enjoyed the new taste treats. Most had not tried raw yam and did not even know of jicama.

Marinated Black Beans was another favorite served on jicama, cucumbers or suffed into mini-peppers or celery. You can find that recipe in Dr. Jo’s Natural Healing Cookbook.
