Sauteed Dandelion
Greens with Garlic
While I love planning out a big meal for special occasions, during
weeknights, I prefer simple recipes that don’t take much time or
forethought to cook! For this one, all you need to do is come upon
some dandelion greens in your produce section or farmers
market; you’ll likely have the rest of the ingredients at home.

These greens are delightful as a side dish, added to soups, or


omelets.

Ingredients
1 bunch dandelion greens (approximately 1 lb)
1-2 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup avocado or olive oil
1/2 cup onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
3-4 TBS Pine nuts (optional)
A few pinches of red pepper flakes
Fresh ground Black pepper

© Chronic Conditions Rescue 4


Directions
Gather the ingredients.

Rinse dandelion greens well and trim off the roots


if still attached.

Fill a bowl with water and add 1 teaspoon of salt.


Soak the leaves in the salted water for 10-15
minutes and rinse in cold water.

Chop the leaves into 1-2 inch pieces.

Bring 2 cups boil in a saucepan add 1 teaspoon of


salt. Add the chopped greens and cook,
uncovered, for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile warm the olive or avocado oil in a pan


over medium heat, and Sauté the diced onions,
pepper flakes and garlic. Cook until the onions
are translucent.

Remove greens from the heat and drain. Add


them to the pan with the onion-garlic mixture.

Season with pepper to taste, a pinch of salt if


needed, and sprinkle the pine nuts on top.
Enjoy!

Eggplant, Onion & Tomato Stew

Eggplant is rich in polyphenol nutrients, which help the body detox


and are strong antioxidants.

Onions are rich in sulfur which help with the sulfur liver detox
pathway and are high in quecitin a bioflavinoid that is a strong
antioxidant, anticarcinogen, and antihistamine.

Tomatoes are full of lycopene another antioxidant.

This stew is a good side to a meal and is full of fiber, to help remove
the toxins the liver dumped into the intestine out of the body
through bowel movements. Fiber also is beneficial to building a
strong gut microbiome, and more fiber is added putting the stew on
the whole grains.

This meal is oil free so safe for a gallbladder that is not yet healthy
and ready to efficiently emulsify fats.

Japanese Kinpura
Ingredients
1 tablespoon untoasted sesame oil or avocado oil
1 cup organic burdock (gobo root) cut in matchsticks. About 2 long
skinny roots
1 cup organic carrots, cut in matchsticks. 2-3 carrots
2 teaspoons tamari (gluten-free soy sauce) or use 2 teaspoons
coconut aminos with 1/8-1/4 teasp mineral salt if soy-free diet.
1 tablespoon filtered water
1 teaspoon mirin or sake if desired for sweetness but not necessary
if paleo or keto.
For garnish use 1-2 scallions, green parts, thinly sliced and a
sprinkle of your favorite gomasio

Directions
Good burdock is hard to find unless you are in an area with some
die-hard macrobiotics or have an excellent Asian grocery store
nearby. When I lived in New York City 20 years ago there was an
amazing farm stand at the Union Street Farmer’s Market run by
people who looked like they had just woke up and crawled out of a
tree only a few hours prior to selling us city dwellers the most
amazing leafy greens and burdock root I have ever tasted.

BCG Soup (Broccoli,
Cilantro and Garlic Soup)

This is my favorite flu/cold season


soup AND I love it even if I, or my
family, are not sick. When its time to
start raking the leaves is usually when I
have a craving for this soup. It is
warming and packed full of immune
boosting ingredients such as garlic
and ginger. Broccoli contains
something called sulforaphane, which
contains anti-viral and anti-retro-viral
properties. Broccoli helps to increase
glutathione levels in the body. Cilantro
is an amazing heavy metal chelator,
which means it helps to bind metals
and help your body excrete them. This
is an all around win-win detox and
immune defense addition to your
recipe rotation.

Please see this pubmed article for


more information of the benefits of
increased sulforaphane in your diet.

Maple-Roasted Vegetables
with Fennel, Turmeric Tahini, and Dukkah

Searching for a nutrient-dense dish to support liver and gallbladder


function? Look no further. Indulge in these maple-roasted beets and
carrots, served over a bed of fennel and turmeric tahini, topped with
hazelnut dukkah (an Egyptian condiment/spice mixture) and fennel
fronds. Your mouth – and body – will thank you!

Maple Roasted
Vegetables & Fennel
4 small to medium beets ½-tsp of sea salt flaked sea
(trimmed; cut off greens & salt
use in a different dish) 1 small head of fennel (thinly
1 lb of carrots (peeled & shaved; cut off the stalks and
ends trimmed) use in a different dish)
2½ Tbs avocado oil (divided ½-1 Tbs of chopped fennel
between the beets & maple fronds for garnish
mixture)
1½ Tbs of maple syrup

© Chronic Conditions Rescue 14


Dukkah Turmeric Tahini

¼-cup raw hazelnuts ⅓-cup tahini


2 Tbs raw sesame seeds 3 Tbs fresh lemon juice
2 Tbs raw pumpkin seeds 3-4 Tbs filtered water
1 Tbs coriander seeds 1 small garlic clove (pressed)
1 Tbs cumin seeds ½-tsp sea salt or to taste
1 Tbs caraway seeds ⅛-tsp of black pepper or to taste
½-tsp flaked sea salt ⅛-¼ tsp dried turmeric
1 tsp maple syrup
1 tsp olive oil

Directions

Start by preparing the maple-roasted


vegetables and fennel.

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.


2. Slice off the beet greens close to the top of the beet.
3. Rinse and lightly scrub beets under cool water, using a vegetable
brush to remove any caked-on dirt.
4. Place beets on a baking sheet. Drizzle 1 Tbs of the avocado oil
over them and rub each unpeeled beet with the oil.
5. Roast the beets until a knife or fork slides easily into the middle
of the beet, anywhere between 40 to 60 minutes. Roasting time
will vary depending on the size of the beets.
6. Lightly grease a separate, rimmed baking pan with avocado oil.
Place the peeled and trimmed carrots in a single layer on the
baking pan.
7. In a small bowl, make the maple mixture. Mix together the maple
syrup, sea salt, and remaining 1½ Tbs of avocado oil.

© Chronic Conditions Rescue 15


8. Pour PART of the maple mixture – 2 Tbs – over the carrots and
toss to coat. Reserve 1 Tbs to toss the cooked and peeled beets in.
9. Place the carrots in the oven with the beets and bake for 30-45
minutes or until tender and lightly browned. Roasting time may vary
depending on the size of the carrots.
10. Thinly shave/slice fennel head with a mandoline or knife.
11. When the beets are ready to be removed from the oven (40 to 60
min), take them out and let them cool, about 5-10 minutes. Once
cool enough to handle, peel the beets by pulling the skin off with
your hands or by using a sharp paring knife. Cut into quarters. Toss
beets with the remaining reserved maple mixture.

Meanwhile, get the dukkah going.


1. Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add the hazelnuts and
pumpkin seeds. Cook and stir frequently for 2-3 minutes or until
lightly golden. Add sesame seeds and cook for an additional 1-2
minutes or until golden; stir frequently. Skip this step if you prefer
raw nuts and seeds.
2. Place the toasted (or raw) nut and seeds mixture into a food
processor and pulse until coarsely chopped. Transfer to a large
bowl.
3. Place coriander seeds, cumin seeds, and caraway seeds in a
frying pan over medium heat. Cook and stir frequently for 1-2
minutes or until aromatic and seeds begin to pop. Transfer seeds to
a mortar and pestle. Pound until finely crushed (alternatively, use a
coffee or spice grinder). Add the ground spices and salt to the nut
and seed mixture and mix well.

Note: You will likely have extra dukkah. Store in a glass jar in
the fridge for up to one month. Use it to garnish soups and
salads or mix with olive oil and enjoy as a dip.

Finally, whip up the turmeric tahini.
1. In a small bowl, stir together the tahini, lemon juice, water, garlic,
turmeric, maple syrup, avocado oil, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir
until combined. If the mixture is too thick, thin with additional water.

Assemble. Build a plate, and they will come


1. Place a generous amount of the turmeric tahini sauce on the
serving plate.
2. Next, lay a bed of shaved fennel on top of the tahini.
3. Place roasted carrots and beets on top of the fennel.
4. Sprinkle dukkah on the dish to taste. (I prefer a generous amount
for taste and texture.)
5. Finally, garnish with fennel fronds and enjoy!

Cilantro Lime Drink
This is a drink I came up with as I was studying how to detoxify
chronic Epstein Barr virus. I think it solidified as a ‘must have’ for me:

This drink is delicious and light. It’s not a thick, sticky, complicated
smoothie! It does not require a fancy blender.

This simple drink packs a lot of punch to:

Liver Lover's
Gomashio
Liver Lover's Gomashio derives its cleansing effects from an herb
called Milk Thistle. Milk thistle is a flowering plant of the daisy family.
It's called “milk thistle” because it's a thistle, and the leaves are
banded with milky splashes of white, which at one point were
thought to be Mother Mary's milk.

Milk thistle has the ability to tonify your liver, and aid in its
regeneration, by strengthening the liver cell walls so that toxins
cannot enter as easily. Milk thistle also helps to prevent depletion of
glutathione, a potent antioxidant, which combats liver inflammation
and reduces elevated liver enzymes.
While milk thistle can be taken as an herbal remedy, in tincture or
pill form, my favorite way to take it is to grind up the seeds and
sprinkle on food. Thus, the birth of Liver Lover's Gomashio.

Other liver-cleansing and liver-supporting ingredients in this


delicious condiment are:

Broccoli seeds, known for their


ability to stimulate the often
sluggish Phase II liver detoxification
pathways, and to urge estrogen
metabolites down the favorable
protective pathways; and
kelp powder, which is loaded with
minerals, especially iodine, and is
an excellent heavy metal chelator.

Ritamarie Loscalzo
DrRitaMarie.com

© Chronic Conditions Rescue 22


Ingredients
1/2 cup hulled sesame seeds
1/4 cup milk thistle seeds
1/8 cup broccoli seeds
2 teaspoons kelp powder
1 teaspoon sea salt (or more to taste)

Directions
Using a mortar and pestle, a suribachi, or a small electric coffee
grinder, grind milk thistle and broccoli seeds.

Add sesame seeds, and continue to process until fully ground.

Pour into a small glass jar with tight-fitting lid.

Add salt and kelp, and mix well.

Add extra salt to taste, but only if you aren't on a salt-restricted diet.
(Note: In the macrobiotic diet, gomashio is typically made with a
ratio of 18 parts sesame seeds to 1 part salt. In shorthand, that's a
ratio of 18:1 of sesame seeds to salt by volume.)

Sprinkle on a salad, on soup, or over cooked vegetables.

Serve this topping over a bed of dandelion greens, known for their
liver cleansing effects, grated burdock root, and your choice of
mixed greens. I drizzle flax oil and a hint of lemon juice, or apple
cider vinegar, over the veggies, sprinkle on the Liver Lover's
Gomashio, and enjoy.

Variations: Add other cleansing herbs like garlic, dill,


cayenne, turmeric, ginger, or any other spice you like.

and greens, do not discard as they will be used
later. Cut the beet in half to create two
hemispheres. Continue to slice the beets to
roughly 2 cm wedges.

2. Preheat your wok until the oil begins to


bubble over medium-high heat. Add beets for
roughly 5 min. Moisture from the beets will
evaporate during this process and the edges of
the beets will begin to blacken. At this point add
⅛ cup of water and cover for an additional 5
min.

3. Remove beets from the pan and reserve for


later.

4. In the wok heat, add one tablespoon of olive


oil and then add carrots, broccoli heads, beet
stems, red onion, and cook until onions have
become translucent. Add garlic and continue
cooking for an additional 2-3 min on high.

5. Remove vegetables from heat and reserve


for later

6. In your wok, combine gluten-free soy sauce,


rice wine, sesame oil, red pepper flakes garlic
powder, and Shaoxing cooking wine, salt, and
pepper to taste. Bring to a boil and return
reserved beets and vegetables to the wok.

7. Add finely cut green onion and serve on a


bed of brown rice and Bon Appetit!

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a baking sheet with
parchment paper and spread the oats evenly
throughout the pan. Toast the oats for about 10
minutes stirring halfway through, or until golden brown
but not burnt.

Pulse the quinoa in a food processor to create a flour.


Once the oats are toasted, transfer them to a medium-
large mixing bowl along with quinoa “flour”, coconut
flour, shredded coconut, pumpkin seeds, and salt.

Let this mixture cool to room temperature, and stir in


the chocolate chunks.

Meanwhile, heat a small saucepan on medium-high


with coconut oil, creamy almond butter, and honey. Stir
until heated and combined.

Transfer the liquid to the mixing bowl with the dry


ingredients and mix thoroughly to a granola-like
consistency. Line a 9 x 7 (or any smaller sized) glass
baking dish with foil or parchment paper, and transfer
the mixture to the container.

Place it back into the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until


golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool
before cutting into 12 pieces.
