Plant-Based Educator Dorothy Greet congratulates Nurse Practitioner Lori Irelan on the completion of her doctoral dissertation.

The Plant-Based Dining Class of the Osher Institute of the University of Delaware in Lewes congratulates classmate Lori Irelan as she nears completion of her doctoral dissertation.  Lori is a local family Nurse Practitioner who teaches nurse practitioner students at Wilmington University.  A Plant-Based educator herself, Lori is also a doctoral student who was looking to shadow a nutrition expert when she joined our class as a full participant in February. We are delighted that our mutual learning experience is reflected in her dissertation which is about increasing nutrition education in a Nurse Practitioner curriculum designed to better treat and educate patients.

Sushi for Supper

 

Cook up a batch of short, whole grain rice.  Moisten it with seasoned rice vinegar.  Spread it on half a Nori (flat seaweed) sheet that has been placed on a bamboo sushi mat. Add lightly steamed veg strips for filling on the rice.  Sprinkle the filling with moistened wakame (seaweed bits for flavor and additional nutrients). Roll the sushi mat gently and tightly jellyroll fashion.  Cut long roll into 6 or 8 sushi pieces.  Mix up a batch of dipping sauce from Bragg's Aminos (nutritious soy sauce), bit of wasabi & fresh minced ginger.  There you have it--plant-based, oil-free sushi--a feast for body and soul.

ODE TO MUSHROOMS

 BUY MUSHROOMS

Buy all kinds, all sizes, all shapes.

GROW MUSHROOMS

I grow mushrooms from a kit in a box in a spare shower stall.

LEARN ABOUT MUSHROOMS

Mushrooms are loaded with nutrients and fiber. 

Make them a mainstay in your diet. Just avoid eating raw mushrooms.

ENJOY MUSHROOMS

Eat them whole, stuffed, sliced or chopped.  Saute in wine or vinegar.  Roast with other vegetables. Grill as main dish.  Add to soups, sauces, and salads.  Here is one of our favorite dishes--Mushroom Stroganoff

 from John McDougall's Quick and Easy Cookbook.
