ALMONDS

One of the best nutritional changes you can make is adding 1 oz (~23) of nuts to your daily diet. Almonds are high in fibre, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals like magnesium. A recent review of over 800,000 people found that just 1 small handful of nuts daily reduced heart disease rates by 21% and cancers by 15%! Diabetes was reduced 40% and infectious diseases 75%. Simply put, when you eat almonds (or other nuts that you enjoy), good things happen!

You will need:

  • knife
  • colander
  • bowl
  • cutting board
  • large pot
  • pan
  • oil
  • water

Preparation

1

Prepare and roast the tofu: Bring water (about 4 cups, 4 to 8 cups, 8 to 10 cup) to a boil in a large pot for the ramen.  

Set aside the tofu marinade. Cut the tofu in 2 cm cubes. In a large pan, add the oil (1/2 tbs, 1 tbs, 1 1/2 tsp), and tofu cubes. Cook on medium heat and turn regularly to roast each cube – about 6-8 minutes. Place the tofu in a bowl with the marinade and set aside. Rinse the pan to re-use for the vegetables. 

2

Prepare and cook the vegetables: Wash and clean all produce. Cut the mushrooms in about 1 cm slices and the carrots in about 1/2 cm slices. In the same pan you cooked the tofu, heat the oil (1/2 tsp, 1 tsp, 1 1/2 tsp) on medium heat. Add the mushrooms and carrots. Stirring regularly, cook on medium heat for about 7-10 minutes, until the carrots are tender. Add the tofu to the vegetables. Combine and set aside. 

3

Cook the ramen: While the vegetables are cooking and the water is boiling, add the ramen and cook for about 3 1/2 to 4 minutes. Strain the noodles in a colander and place them back in the pot.

Gluten free: Add the ramen to boiling water. When noodles begin to unfold (about 1 minute), separate gently with a fork and reduce heat to low boil. Continue to cook for 3 minutes or until the noodles are just soft. Strain through a colander and rinse with cold water.

4

Combine the sauce with the ramen: Add the ginger soy sauce to the ramen. Combine and set aside. 

5

Assemble: Separate the mint leaves. In serving dishes, place the ramen, vegetables and tofu. Garnish with mint leaves and panko.

CARROT
Like all colourful vegetables, carrots are a gold mine of antioxidants such as carotenoids, polyphenols and vitamins. Beta-carotene in carrots helps protect vision (yes your grandmother was right!). A high intake of carotenoids has been linked with a significant decrease in post-menopausal breast cancer, as well as prostate cancer.

Tools

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • baking sheet
  • parchment or non-stick liner
  • pan

Preparation

1

Cook the barley:  Heat  the oven to 400F. Rinse and dry all produces. In a medium pot, add the barley, water (1 1/2 cup, 3 cup) and salt (1/2 tsp, ¼ tsp) Bring to a boil, cover and let simmer 25 minutes. 

Gluten Friendly
Cook the rice: In the sink, place the rice in a strainer and rinse it well. In a pot, add the brown rice, water (1 1/3 cup, 2 2/3 cups), salt (1/4 tsp, 1/2 tsp) and stir. Bring to a boil on high heat. Reduce the heat to medium/low, cover and cook 25 minutes or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Remove the pot from the heat and set aside.

2

Cook the vegetables: Cut the tomatoes in dices of about 1 cm. Cut the ends of the green beans and cut them in pieces of about 3 cm long.

3

Cook the vegetables and fish: Place the tomatoes and half the green beans on a baking sheet lined with parchment or non-stick liner. Drizzle the vegetables with oil (1/2 tsp, 1 tsp) , sprinkle with salt (¼ tsp, 1/2 tsp), pepper (1/8 tsp, 1/4 tsp) and Za’atar Spice blend. Combine to evenly coat the vegetables. Cook for about 5 minutes in the oven. Take the baking sheet out of the oven and place the za’atar Northern Pike on the baking sheet. Cook for an additional 7-10 minutes depending on how thick the fish is. The best way to check for doneness is to use a fork to gently prick the fish, and if it flakes easily and is opaque it’s ready. Make sure to not overcook.   

Note: Ensure the Northern Pike is cooked to at least 145F but do not over cook it as it will become dry quickly.

4

Prepare the olives and almonds: Remove the pits from the black olives and roughly chop them. Roughly chop the almonds. 

5

Toast the almonds: Place the almonds in a small pan and toast on medium heat for about 1 minute. moving the almonds regularly to prevent burning. 

6

Assemble and serve: On individual plates, place the barley, top with the Northern Pike, baked vegetables, raw green beans, black olives, toasted almonds,  mixed greens, pea sprouts and garnish with about 2 tbsp of za’atar lemon dressing. Serve.
