MemberI have just joined and feeling a little let down. I live in Australia and jst know I am going to have difficulty purchasing some of the required ingredients. What on earth are turkey nuts??? Also, I see from my first weekly menu I am supposed to be eating a mixed green salad and this has the little recipe symbol next to it but I can’t find a recipe.

MemberHi, Lainie. After my response are some shopping links for Australia. I’m not sure where you found “turkey nuts” – are you sure you read that right? There’s no such food in the lists. The mixed green salad recipe is provided after the list of shopping links.

Online shopping; products available in storesAustralia approved sale of raw dairy products only in May, 2012 (starting with cheese). Stay tuned to the above Australia-specific links for the appearance of products, hopefully in the not-too-distant future.
Mixed Green Salad
What you need
Any combination of the following:
2 cups green leafy vegetables such as raw spinach,
arugula, baby greens, and/or head lettuce such as butter, red leaf, or romaine
2 medium ripe tomatoes or 12 cherry tomatoes
1 cucumber, peeled or scrubbed
1 bell pepper, green or red, cored
1 large or 8 baby carrots, peeled
1 small white or red onion, outer layers removed
4 large or 8 small radishes, tops removed
1 scallion or green onion
½ cup sunflower sprouts
What you need to do.
Rinse all of the vegetables thoroughly, and pat dry with paper towels or a clean dish towel.
Cut vegetables into bite-sized pieces. Put in 2-quart bowel, and mix.
Add lemon juice, flavored vinegar, and/or seasonings (free), with or without olive oil (1 tsp. = 1 fat), or ready-made organic salad dressing (1 Tbsp. dressing = 1 fat), as desired. Other popular toppings include chopped nuts, seeds (1 Tbsp. = ½ protein), cooked beans or whole grains (¼ cup = ½ carb), or canned fish or chicken (1 oz drained = 1 protein). - AuthorPosts
