Remember to add lots of satiating brain fuel olive oil to your salads.
I used to eat pasta but now I would never eat pasta again because it is such a highly processed nutrient deficient frankenfood. I prefer real food with real flavor that offers more nutrients to better help my mind and body, keep my blood sugars constant and help build my immune system.
Instead of GMO pasta made from the seeds of grasses you can substitute it with cabbage. Here are a few variations of Primed Cabbage “pasta” dishes.

Onions
Garlic
Ginger
Chili
Turmeric
Coconut milk or cream
Coconut oil
Salt and pepper
Assorted greens
Optional
Green and red chils
Cucumber
Bacon
Chicken
Red curry paste
Fried eggs
Have fun with your ingredients and you can make many variations for your Primed Cabbage Dish like Rebekah Brandauer Jackson Did:
“A Chinese twist on Coconut Cabbage (from Chad Davis) we served it with smoked chicken and garnished with fried chicken skin ~ 12 grams of carbs. My 16 year old daughter had seconds.” From Rebekah Brandauer Jackson. Thanks Rebekah.
Malunggay used to be known as the poor man’s vegetable in the Philippines. Maybe it is true with respect to material wealth, but those who eat a lot of malunggay are rich in health due to the myriad of health benefits derived from this abundant and wondrous small leaf.
The malunggay tree is known as the miracle tree for good reason. The leaves, stem and even roots have properties that have some of these benefits: anti-ageing, antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, anti-infectious, anti-bacterial, anti-cancer, increase sperm count and beauty/skin treatment among others.

I will start with the hollandaise sauce as it is the trickiest part of the recipe but quite easy once you have tried doing it a few times.

One of our most popular Primed recipes is our Banana Pancakes made with almond flour. They are delicious, have a great texture and are nutritious as almonds are loaded with lots of essential nutrients. However, almonds can be hard to find sometimes and are not cheap.
I had a wonderful breakfast with my friend Mae from WhenInManila where she loved my Banana Pancakes but I decided to use coconut flour next time we so we could try something different.
Coconut flour is easy to make and inexpensive. The price per pancake is less than 5 pesos. Coconut flour also has many health benefits as it has 5 grams of fiber per 2 tablespoons and by adding coconut flour it lowers the glycemic index (a measure of the rate that a food increases blood sugar) of the dishes to which it is added.

It was a lot of fun (and very educational) to be at the InterContinental Manila as a presenter for the Management Association of the Philippines Lifestyle Forum.
Carbonara Sauce, who does not like this classic sauce? I am sure that no one I know doesn’t enjoy the smokiness of the bacon, the earthy flavors of the mushrooms, the richness of the cream, egg and Parmesan!
All of these flavors make one of the most famous worldwide dishes …. oops did I forget to mention the pasta? Yes I did, because today it is a carbonara without the pasta. I am making it primed for you guys.
Carbonara without pasta is a dream come true for those people who want to avoid pasta?
Please, let’s get ready in your kitchen, it’s going to be fun.
