foods that we can have 00:04:28.40\00:04:31.47 and we might want to even add some jam on our bread 00:04:31.50\00:04:35.04 or our pecan rolls or even add some color 00:04:35.07\00:04:38.24 with some fresh cranberry sauce. 00:04:38.27\00:04:41.21 We have an abundance of good things 00:04:41.24\00:04:43.08 that we can get at the holiday time. 00:04:43.11\00:04:45.08 And you are gonna share some recipes 00:04:45.11\00:04:47.02 of just how we can do this 00:04:47.05\00:04:48.75 and with the audience and share exactly 00:04:48.78\00:04:53.09 the ingredients to have these healthy holidays. 00:04:53.12\00:04:55.56 Yes, let's start with the holiday roast, 00:04:55.59\00:04:59.36 the Cashew holiday roast. 00:04:59.39\00:05:01.20 So, let's start this recipe right now. 00:05:39.20\00:05:42.77 We're going to start with our cashews. 00:05:42.80\00:05:45.21 Cashews are wonderful nut. 00:05:45.24\00:05:47.38 We have many wonderful nuts, our almond nuts, 00:05:47.41\00:05:49.94 our cashew nuts, our walnuts 00:05:49.98\00:05:52.65 but all of these natural nuts are good and high in protein. 00:05:52.68\00:05:56.79 And then we have some vegan vegetarian burger 00:05:56.82\00:06:01.12 and we are going to mix that together here. 00:06:01.16\00:06:03.99 And then we'll add actually some egg replacer to the water. 00:06:04.03\00:06:10.07 And I like to just beat that a little bit 00:06:10.10\00:06:12.43 so it actually becomes almost like an egg white 00:06:12.47\00:06:15.87 and you just beat that and mix that all in. 00:06:15.90\00:06:19.37 And so we are just gonna mix that in here. 00:06:19.41\00:06:22.28 And then we have some onions 00:06:22.31\00:06:26.11 and this is a large onion. 00:06:26.15\00:06:29.92 And onion here and some celery. 00:06:29.95\00:06:33.76 And of course again onions and celery 00:06:33.79\00:06:36.02 are very nutritious and good for us. 00:06:36.06\00:06:38.59 And so, and then bread crumbs. 00:06:38.63\00:06:40.36 And what I did was I just took some bread, 00:06:40.40\00:06:44.07 some 100% whole wheat bread 00:06:44.10\00:06:46.37 and ground it up 00:06:46.40\00:06:48.07 so that we had some natural good bread crumbs here. 00:06:48.10\00:06:52.31 Then you can add your table spoons of oil, 00:06:52.34\00:06:55.11 just a little bit of olive oil. 00:06:55.14\00:06:57.58 We'll just use some light olive oil there 00:06:57.61\00:07:02.72 and then a little bit of salt to just season this a bit 00:07:02.75\00:07:06.86 and some McKay's chicken seasoning. 00:07:06.89\00:07:11.03 And then we have a little bit of Braggs. 00:07:11.06\00:07:17.23 And then we mix this all together 00:07:17.27\00:07:20.47 and then we're going to add our soy milk 00:07:20.50\00:07:22.40 once we get this all mixed up. 00:07:22.44\00:07:25.27 And this is a wonderful roast to serve at the holiday time. 00:07:25.31\00:07:30.05 In fact its even god 00:07:30.08\00:07:31.41 when it's not the holiday time as well 00:07:31.45\00:07:34.12 but it's a wonderful roast. 00:07:34.15\00:07:36.52 It will hold together nicely for you as well. 00:07:36.55\00:07:39.49 So we're going to add our milk 00:07:39.52\00:07:42.16 and then put it into 00:07:42.19\00:07:45.16 probably an 8 X 8 pan like this it will fit nicely. 00:07:45.19\00:07:50.03 And it will hold together as you can see 00:07:50.07\00:07:52.50 our finished product here. 00:07:52.53\00:07:54.60 And it will hold together nicely. 00:07:54.64\00:07:58.01 And so just mix this all together 00:07:58.04\00:08:01.68 and then you can serve with this 00:08:01.71\00:08:03.95 some wonderful mash potatoes 00:08:03.98\00:08:06.98 or you can serve some good holiday sweet potatoes. 00:08:07.02\00:08:11.89 And then some kind of a salad is always good. 00:08:11.92\00:08:15.26 Something fresh is always wonderful. 00:08:15.29\00:08:17.93 And then in addition to that you can have 00:08:17.96\00:08:19.86 some fresh green beans or carrots 00:08:19.89\00:08:23.06 or whatever cooked vegetables you want 00:08:23.10\00:08:25.57 and you will have a complete meal. 00:08:25.60\00:08:29.17 So we're going to just pour this into here 00:08:29.20\00:08:32.94 and then we're going to bake this for about an hour, 00:08:32.97\00:08:38.11 little more than an hour 00:08:38.15\00:08:40.18 sometimes if-- at about 350 degrees 00:08:40.22\00:08:44.45 and it will be golden brown, nice and brown. 00:08:44.49\00:08:50.16 And so here we have this you can see how easy it is 00:08:50.19\00:08:54.63 to mix everything up. 00:08:54.66\00:08:56.90 And just have it so that it is nice and even 00:08:56.93\00:09:00.10 across the top of your pan. 00:09:00.14\00:09:02.77 And then you have a wonderful holiday roast. 00:09:02.80\00:09:07.88 And here is your finished product here. 00:09:07.91\00:09:10.35 So you just take this and bake it. 00:09:10.38\00:09:13.55 You bake this at 350 degrees 00:09:13.58\00:09:17.49 and then you have a wonderful roast. 00:09:17.52\00:09:20.99 So its wonder-- it's easy to have 00:09:21.02\00:09:26.33 a plant base diet even on the holidays. 00:09:26.36\00:09:30.67 And then with that you can serve 00:09:30.70\00:09:32.90 some wonderful sweet potatoes. 00:09:32.93\00:09:36.30 Sweet potatoes are high in vitamin A, 00:09:36.34\00:09:39.34 wonderful and then you can add a little bit of protein 00:09:39.37\00:09:42.14 by having some pecans or even some walnuts. 00:09:42.18\00:09:45.48 And serve that roast with some sweet potatoes 00:09:45.51\00:09:49.22 and maybe even some delicious butternut squash. 00:09:49.25\00:09:52.75 All I did with the butternut squash 00:09:52.79\00:09:54.69 is just cook the butternut squash 00:09:54.72\00:09:57.16 and a little bit of water enough so that it's all cooked up. 00:09:57.19\00:10:01.83 Whenever you cook your vegetables, 00:10:01.86\00:10:03.33 it's good to cook them so that they are-- 00:10:03.37\00:10:06.80 that all the water is cooked up in them 00:10:06.84\00:10:09.07 so that you get the god nutrients there. 00:10:09.10\00:10:11.64 And then I just add it for the holidays 00:10:11.67\00:10:14.21 a little pinch of brown sugar 00:10:14.24\00:10:16.58 and a little bit of salt and that is it. 00:10:16.61\00:10:19.55 And you have some wonderful food for the holidays. 00:10:19.58\00:10:24.19 And now Mark is going to share with us 00:10:24.22\00:10:26.52 seven principals of how to keep you family healthy 00:10:26.55\00:10:30.39 during the holidays. 00:10:30.43\00:10:32.49 Teenie has been keeping me healthy for the last 45 years 00:10:32.53\00:10:35.53 and so I've enjoyed so many wonderful holidays. 00:10:35.56\00:10:39.27 We've enjoyed these holidays 00:10:39.30\00:10:40.94 and special occasions with our family. 00:10:40.97\00:10:43.44 As many of you know for the last 45 years 00:10:43.47\00:10:46.37 Teenie has been teaching Natural Lifestyle Cooking. 00:10:46.41\00:10:49.71 We calculated the other day that about 00:10:49.74\00:10:51.35 250, 000 food samples were made during that period of time 00:10:51.38\00:10:56.28 and over 20,000 people have attended 00:10:56.32\00:10:58.19 her Natural

family. 00:11:05.06\00:11:07.40 She has now added a companion book to that 00:11:07.40\00:11:10.37 and I am gonna be working on that today, 00:11:10.40\00:11:11.80 called Natural Lifestyle Cooking Workbook. 00:11:11.83\00:11:15.04 And this is for particularly for people who are teaching 00:11:15.07\00:11:18.31 Natural Lifestyle Cooking classes 00:11:18.34\00:11:19.84 and others who want more 00:11:19.87\00:11:21.21 scientific information regarding it. 00:11:21.24\00:11:24.28 We're gonna look at seven principals 00:11:24.31\00:11:27.28 of having healthy holidays. 00:11:27.32\00:11:30.35 Here's the first, if you want to have healthy holiday, 00:11:30.39\00:11:33.69 live a very balanced lifestyle. 00:11:33.72\00:11:36.96 In fact, plan your holidays to be balanced. 00:11:36.99\00:11:40.93 In our home on our holidays 00:11:40.96\00:11:42.70 we look at the Finley's F's of holidays. 00:11:42.73\00:11:46.20 First, absolutely delicious food. 00:11:46.23\00:11:49.24 Teenie looks at these holiday meals 00:11:49.27\00:11:52.54 and she plans then ahead of time. 00:11:52.57\00:11:55.01 It requires careful planning but it's really worth it 00:11:55.04\00:11:57.81 because our holidays become a great memory. 00:11:57.85\00:11:59.78 So the first aspect of this balance is to have 00:11:59.81\00:12:05.75 really good tasting food 00:12:05.79\00:12:08.76 but good tasting food that's healthy. 00:12:08.79\00:12:10.79 Have you ever had some good tasting food 00:12:10.83\00:12:12.79 that wasn't healthy? 00:12:12.83\00:12:15.33 Have you ever had some healthy food, 00:12:15.36\00:12:17.57 might I say it that did not taste the best 00:12:17.60\00:12:21.87 and you thought, oh, man, this is healthy 00:12:21.90\00:12:23.41 and I am gonna eat it if it kills me, you know? 00:12:23.44\00:12:27.41 You want to have on holiday's 00:12:27.44\00:12:29.41 first absolutely delicious, attractive food 00:12:29.44\00:12:34.35 and that really take some planning. 00:12:34.38\00:12:36.42 The second thing that we strive for on holidays 00:12:36.45\00:12:38.52 in Finley family is fellowship. 00:12:38.55\00:12:41.29 We want our healthy holidays to be filled with fellowship. 00:12:41.32\00:12:45.76 We want to balance eating with fellowship. 00:12:45.79\00:12:48.96 You know, some people eat and sleep 00:12:49.00\00:12:51.43 or eat and watch TV. 00:12:51.47\00:12:52.97 They've this huge Thanksgiving meal 00:12:53.00\00:12:54.87 that they just stuff themselves with 00:12:54.90\00:12:57.01 and then they sit back groggily, 00:12:57.04\00:12:59.51 have thing to watch television rest of the day. 00:12:59.54\00:13:02.08 In our home we have some great food 00:13:02.11\00:13:04.85 but them we want the fellowship, 00:13:04.88\00:13:06.21 the interaction that makes 00:13:06.25\00:13:07.95 such an incredible difference in a family. 00:13:07.98\00:13:12.05 The third thing that we look for in these Fs, food, 00:13:12.09\00:13:16.79 that is fantastically tasting. 00:13:16.83\00:13:19.19 Fellowship that is rich and meaningful 00:13:19.23\00:13:22.73 as we sit and share our experiences, 00:13:22.76\00:13:24.53 maybe families come in, kids have been off to school. 00:13:24.57\00:13:27.30 We haven't seen one another for a period of time. 00:13:27.34\00:13:30.37 Our children are grown now-- so they have been working. 00:13:30.41\00:13:32.67 We get together when we want, 00:13:32.71\00:13:34.04 it's about chatter around the table and chatter after. 00:13:34.08\00:13:37.11 And then we always plan fun. 00:13:37.15\00:13:39.88 So we have food, fellowship and fun. 00:13:39.91\00:13:42.48 And so we'll be playing games, 00:13:42.52\00:13:44.65 recently we were together for somebody's birthday 00:13:44.69\00:13:47.12 and one of the things we did is watch a little YouTube video 00:13:47.16\00:13:50.13 on how to draw an eye. 00:13:50.16\00:13:51.76 And all of us, six of us were sitting around there 00:13:51.79\00:13:54.03 from the youngest children to the oldest grandpa. 00:13:54.10\00:13:57.07 And we were drawing this eye 00:13:57.10\00:13:58.90 and then we had people guess who drew what eye. 00:13:58.93\00:14:01.24 And it was a lot of fun 00:14:01.27\00:14:03.00 and a lot of family activity involved there. 00:14:03.04\00:14:07.08 So the first thing you want is balance. 00:14:07.11\00:14:09.21 We balance food, fellowship and fun. 00:14:09.24\00:14:13.38 The second thing that I've listed here 00:14:13.42\00:14:16.42 in the workbook is on holidays make wise choices. 00:14:16.45\00:14:23.69 Choices are incredibly important on holidays. 00:14:23.73\00:14:26.86 Some people chose to tank up on all their protein. 00:14:26.90\00:14:32.43 Other people will say, 00:14:32.47\00:14:33.80 oh, I am gonna eat a little bit moderately 00:14:33.84\00:14:35.77 but then I am going to have two pieces of pumpkin pie 00:14:35.80\00:14:40.94 with ice cream and they load up on the desserts. 00:14:40.98\00:14:43.91 When you look at your holiday plate, 00:14:43.95\00:14:46.31 look for a variety of color. 00:14:46.35\00:14:49.75 The salads, the beautiful squash, 00:14:49.78\00:14:54.99 the holiday roast. 00:14:55.02\00:14:56.49 Try to look at a variety on the holidays 00:14:56.52\00:15:00.76 and make it wise choices in what you eat. 00:15:00.80\00:15:04.47 Wise choices not only in what you eat 00:15:04.50\00:15:06.03 but in the quantity that you eat. 00:15:06.07\00:15:08.30 The joy of eating comes not simply 00:15:08.34\00:15:12.44 when we are stuffed 00:15:12.47\00:15:15.64 but the joy of eating comes from the satisfaction 00:15:15.68\00:15:17.91 we have of the food in our mouth. 00:15:17.95\00:15:19.61 So chew food thoroughly, eat moderate amounts 00:15:19.65\00:15:23.15 and you will have a delightful holiday. 00:15:23.18\00:15:26.79 So here are three things so far. 00:15:26.82\00:15:28.52 One, balance. 00:15:28.56\00:15:31.16 Try to achieve a balance between food fellowship and fun. 00:15:31.19\00:15:35.83 Two, make wise choices. 00:15:35.86\00:15:38.33 Three, eat in moderation. 00:15:38.37\00:15:41.44 Don't stuff yourself and try to be full 00:15:41.47\00:15:46.47 when you finish but eat in moderation. 00:15:46.51\00:15:49.31 And fourthly, get some exercise. 00:15:49.34\00:15:53.21 In our home on our holidays 00:15:53.25\00:15:55.55 we love after eating 00:15:55.58\00:15:58.15 for everybody to get some exercise by doing three things. 00:15:58.19\00:16:02.32 The first exercise that I want to teach you is push away. 00:16:02.36\00:16:06.29 You simply push away from the table 00:16:06.33\00:16:10.17 before you are completely stuffed. 00:16:10.20\00:16:12.73 The second exercise is you exercise your hands 00:16:12.77\00:16:16.54 by participating in doing the dishes together. 00:16:16.57\00:16:20.04 Men, women, children, 00:16:20.08\00:16:21.41 everybody participate in a family activity. 00:16:21.44\00:16:22.78 The third exercise is get out in the fresh air. 00:16:22.81\00:16:25.91 Head erect, shoulders back, deep breath, 00:16:25.95\00:16:27.72 take some good walks. 00:16:27.75\00:16:29.58 And you will have healthy holidays 00:16:29.62\00:16:32.79 if you do these four particular things. 00:16:32.82\00:16:35.66 One, balance. 00:16:35.69\00:16:37.89 Two, make wise choices. 00:16:37.93\00:16:39.49 Three, eat in moderation 00:16:39.53\00:16:40.86 and four, plan your holiday so you get some exercise. 00:16:40.90\00:16:43.73 Whether, it's throwing ball in the backyard, 00:16:43.77\00:16:45.20 playing badminton, playing croquet, 00:16:45.23\00:16:47.30 whether it's taking a walk. 00:16:47.34\00:16:48.67 Help with the dishes, you like that too 00:16:48.70\00:16:50.21 and your spouse will like it as well. 00:16:50.24\00:16:54.81 Teenie, there is another recipe on the holidays 00:16:54.84\00:16:59.51 that I really love. 00:16:59.55\00:17:00.95 What do you have for us now? 00:17:00.98\00:17:02.32 Well, we're going to do some vegetarian turkey and dressing. 00:17:02.35\00:17:07.26 I know that you'll like that because every holiday 00:17:07.29\00:17:10.63 usually has some kind of bread dressing. 00:17:10.66\00:17:12.66 So let's start with our bread crumbs and saute 00:17:34.62\00:17:39.65 and I've sauted some onions and celery together. 00:17:39.69\00:17:43.39 So you just add that to the bread crumbs 00:17:43.43\00:17:47.23 and then you add a little bit of your 00:17:47.30\00:17:50.80 McKay's chicken seasoning in with your boiling water. 00:17:50.83\00:17:54.74 So this water is been boiling-- 00:17:54.77\00:17:56.97 its important to make sure its hot and boiling 00:17:57.01\00:18:00.61 because it will make the-- 00:18:00.64\00:18:03.98 it will not make the dressing soggy. 00:18:04.01\00:18:07.82 And so then you just pour it over there 00:18:07.85\00:18:10.82 and mix it all together 00:18:10.85\00:18:13.52 and then you'll have a wonderful dressing 00:18:13.56\00:18:17.23 that you can put in between your veggie turkey. 00:18:17.26\00:18:21.66 And so you can serve this just plain as well 00:18:21.70\00:18:25.60 and then we just put this-- 00:18:25.63\00:18:27.60 add this inside a piece of vegetarian turkey. 00:18:27.64\00:18:33.41 And put some dressing inside, just like this. 00:18:33.44\00:18:38.81 And put it into a baking dish because you want to bake this. 00:18:38.85\00:18:44.25 And if you want them to look nice 00:18:44.29\00:18:45.69 you just push them all together 00:18:45.72\00:18:48.16 so that you have a nice, 00:18:48.19\00:18:52.69 a lot of turkey vegetarian dressing in there. 00:18:52.73\00:18:56.73 And then you just keep piling one in back of the other. 00:18:56.77\00:19:01.37 And then with this of course 00:19:01.40\00:19:03.74 you're just going to serve you potatoes again. 00:19:03.77\00:19:06.54 Wonderful different kinds of potatoes. 00:19:06.57\00:19:08.51 We have lots of different kinds of potatoes 00:19:08.54\00:19:10.61 in the Natural Lifestyle Cooking book. 00:19:10.65\00:19:13.25 Then you can put some of the dressings 00:19:13.28\00:19:15.35 on to the side here--if you want to have little more. 00:19:15.38\00:19:20.49 And put some on the other side 00:19:20.52\00:19:24.69 and bake this off just for about half an hour. 00:19:24.73\00:19:27.86 Really, what you're wanting to do 00:19:27.86\00:19:29.50 is get your vegetarian turkey just warmed up 00:19:29.53\00:19:33.13 and then you have a wonderful entree dish. 00:19:33.17\00:19:37.61 Again, this is high in protein 00:19:37.64\00:19:40.21 and this is a wonderful holiday dish. 00:19:40.24\00:19:45.21 Now in addition to that 00:19:45.25\00:19:46.72 you can serve some wonderful pecan rolls. 00:19:46.75\00:19:49.58 Pecan rolls are high in protein. 00:19:49.62\00:19:52.59 Ten grams of protein in just one cup on pecans. 00:19:52.62\00:19:58.06 In addition to that you have lots of fiber in pecans. 00:19:58.09\00:20:02.70 So it is also nutritious 00:20:02.73\00:20:04.77 because it's high in nutrients as well 00:20:04.80\00:20:09.64 and all our vitamins and even some minerals. 00:20:09.67\00:20:12.84 And so you have some good pecan rolls to go with that 00:20:12.87\00:20:17.08 vegetarian turkey and dressing. 00:20:17.11\00:20:19.71 And then in addition to that 00:20:19.75\00:20:22.58 you just serve that with your potatoes, 00:20:22.62\00:20:24.92 maybe mash potatoes and some gravy 00:20:24.95\00:20:27.52 and your vegetarian turkey, and you pecan roll 00:20:27.56\00:20:31.76 and some wonderful cooked vegetables. 00:20:31.79\00:20:34.10 Maybe some cooked carrots. 00:20:34.13\00:20:36.06 And remember, when you are cooking those vegetables 00:20:36.10\00:20:39.30 just cook them in enough water 00:20:39.33\00:20:41.57 so it's all cooked up when the vegetables are done. 00:20:41.60\00:20:45.74 It will be much more nutritious. 00:20:45.77\00:20:47.84 So yes, we can have healthy holidays. 00:20:47.88\00:20:51.48 So, Mark, share with us some more principals 00:20:51.51\00:20:55.82 of having good healthy meals on the holidays. 00:20:55.85\00:20:59.09 Well, we've been looking at some very significant 00:20:59.12\00:21:02.19 principals of how to have these healthy holidays. 00:21:02.22\00:21:06.03 How to have your holidays, not simply holidays, 00:21:06.06\00:21:09.50 in which you say, my, once this is over 00:21:09.53\00:21:13.27 then I am going to get on a health program. 00:21:13.30\00:21:15.24 Your holidays actually can be a catalyst for health. 00:21:15.27\00:21:18.24 In the Natural Lifestyle Cooking Workbook 00:21:18.27\00:21:21.38 designed especially for people 00:21:21.41\00:21:23.45 who want to conduct cooking schools, 00:21:23.48\00:21:25.45 Natural Lifestyle Cooking schools 00:21:25.48\00:21:26.82 or for people that want to probe more 00:21:26.85\00:21:29.05 of these scientific aspects of health. 00:21:29.08\00:21:31.92 We've listed seven principles 00:21:31.95\00:21:33.69 that will help your family have healthy holidays. 00:21:33.72\00:21:35.89 We've already talked about having a balance in your life. 00:21:35.92\00:21:39.39 Blending food, family, fellowship and fun. 00:21:39.43\00:21:44.90 We've talked about making wise choices on the holidays. 00:21:44.93\00:21:47.84 Looking--and the wise choice looking really two ways. 00:21:47.87\00:21:51.21 One, the food on your plate 00:21:51.24\00:21:54.14 being sure that the color is varied, 00:21:54.18\00:21:56.81 that you're varying protein and starch 00:21:56.85\00:21:59.11 and carbohydrates and vegetables 00:21:59.15\00:22:01.68 and salads et cetera. 00:22:01.72\00:22:03.08 We talked a little bit about eating moderately. 00:22:03.12\00:22:06.42 Eating so that you are satisfied 00:22:06.45\00:22:09.72 but not eating so you're stuffed. 00:22:09.76\00:22:12.06 We've talked about exercise. 00:22:12.09\00:22:13.83 Remember, we've talked about the push away, 00:22:13.86\00:22:16.53 that famous exercise when you sit at the table. 00:22:16.56\00:22:18.80 And when you are just about full 00:22:18.83\00:22:20.60 you use your hands to push away. 00:22:20.64\00:22:22.94 We've talked also about the participating together 00:22:22.97\00:22:27.24 in family activities and getting out 00:22:27.28\00:22:29.61 and taking great walk. 00:22:29.64\00:22:30.98 Now there are some other principles 00:22:31.01\00:22:32.35 I'd like to discuss with you about healthy holidays. 00:22:32.38\00:22:35.25 Enjoy relationships, you know, wouldn't it be a tragedy 00:22:35.28\00:22:38.69 if you had a birthday party 00:22:38.72\00:22:40.62 or Thanksgiving or Christmas time. 00:22:40.66\00:22:43.19 The kids were home, 00:22:43.22\00:22:44.59 the brother that you haven't seen for a while is there, 00:22:44.63\00:22:47.60 your family is all together 00:22:47.60\00:22:50.27 and you are so busy preparing food 00:22:50.30\00:22:53.80 or you are so tired from the preparation 00:22:53.84\00:22:57.04 that you don't have time for fellowship. 00:22:57.07\00:22:58.91 Concentrate on fellowship on the holidays. 00:22:58.94\00:23:02.64 There is something about positive relationships 00:23:02.68\00:23:06.15 that is health giving and life giving. 00:23:06.18\00:23:10.32 Next, surprise somebody with kindness. 00:23:10.35\00:23:13.72 You know, Jesus said, it is more blessed for us, 00:23:13.76\00:23:17.23 to do what? To give than it is to receive. 00:23:17.26\00:23:20.86 Often in our home we like to look for people 00:23:20.90\00:23:24.50 who may not have a place to go in Thanksgiving 00:23:24.53\00:23:27.30 and invite them. 00:23:27.34\00:23:28.67 We like to look for people on Christmas 00:23:28.70\00:23:30.71 that we can prepare a special gift for. 00:23:30.74\00:23:33.88 Very regularly my wife on the holiday's 00:23:33.91\00:23:37.38 makes homemade bread, wraps it in tinfoil, 00:23:37.41\00:23:40.58 puts a bow on it and we go out 00:23:40.62\00:23:42.15 and give it to the neighbors or others. 00:23:42.18\00:23:43.99 There was a time, couple of years ago 00:23:44.02\00:23:45.62 when we adopted a family 00:23:45.65\00:23:48.16 in a particular city of America in the intercity 00:23:48.19\00:23:51.43 that my wife, I and our children brought Christmas gifts to. 00:23:51.46\00:23:55.93 When you think about the holidays 00:23:55.96\00:23:57.97 think about that person that may not have some place to go. 00:23:58.00\00:24:02.00 Think about that individual who maybe single and alone. 00:24:02.04\00:24:05.47 Think about the widow. 00:24:05.51\00:24:06.91 Think if you are in academic environment, 00:24:06.94\00:24:09.31 a college environment when you come to the holidays 00:24:09.34\00:24:12.55 think about that student that's gonna be in the dormitory 00:24:12.58\00:24:14.72 and invite them over. 00:24:14.75\00:24:16.12 What can you do to reveal kindness to others? 00:24:16.15\00:24:20.49 As you do that 00:24:20.52\00:24:23.12 you will find that your own health 00:24:23.16\00:24:25.16 will dramatically increase well 00:24:25.19\00:24:27.73 because there's something about giving 00:24:27.76\00:24:29.96 that is life giving. 00:24:30.00\00:24:31.40 There's something about sharing that is health building. 00:24:31.43\00:24:34.97 And lastly, on the holidays 00:24:35.00\00:24:38.37 think about what you can be grateful for. 00:24:38.41\00:24:40.91 Thanks giving is really health giving 00:24:40.94\00:24:43.48 and we will talk a little bit about that later. 00:24:43.51\00:24:46.55 But now, Teenie, you have anther recipe for us. 00:24:46.58\00:24:48.82 We're gonna do some chicken salad sandwiches. 00:24:48.85\00:24:52.42 I love them. 00:24:52.45\00:24:53.79 Okay, well, they are good 00:24:53.82\00:24:55.46 and they are delicious and nutritious. 00:24:55.49\00:24:58.26 So, let's start with our garbanzo beans. 00:25:45.07\00:25:49.08 Garbanzos are wonderful source of protein. 00:25:49.11\00:25:53.52 You see, you get proteins 00:25:53.55\00:25:55.12 from basically high protein from three sources. 00:25:55.15\00:25:58.82 From your beans, your legumes 00:25:58.85\00:26:01.76 and then of course your gluten flours 00:26:01.79\00:26:05.03 and then your nut products. 00:26:05.06\00:26:07.66 And so the last time we did a demonstration with nuts 00:26:07.73\00:26:11.53 and now we are going to do with beans. 00:26:11.57\00:26:14.04 And so we have garbanzo beans. 00:26:14.07\00:26:17.84 These are the dry garbanzos. So these are dry. 00:26:17.87\00:26:21.58 Now you can also use them in the can 00:26:21.61\00:26:24.41 and so, but we are using the dry ones. 00:26:24.45\00:26:27.45 And this is-- these are the garbanzos 00:26:27.48\00:26:29.65 after they have been soaked. 00:26:29.68\00:26:31.82 So these are the garbanzos after they've been soaked 00:26:31.85\00:26:34.36 and we're going to put those. 00:26:34.39\00:26:36.59 And you just soak them in water, 00:26:36.62\00:26:38.33 cover them completely with water 00:26:38.36\00:26:40.66 and then let them soak overnight. 00:26:40.70\00:26:43.37 And then put them into your blender 00:26:43.40\00:26:47.54 and add your water and then just blend that up 00:26:47.57\00:26:51.44 until it's blended nicely. 00:26:51.47\00:26:53.51 Okay, then once they are blended, 00:27:23.61\00:27:26.64 very good so that it's all nice and more of a batter, 00:27:26.68\00:27:31.55 looking like a batter then you pour it into a bowl 00:27:31.58\00:27:36.38 and simply add your seasonings. 00:27:36.42\00:27:39.95 Then you add the gluten flour. 00:27:39.99\00:27:42.42 So we have our garbanzo beans blended 00:27:42.46\00:27:45.46 and now we are simply going to add all of our seasonings. 00:27:45.49\00:27:49.23 So put all the seasoning together here, 00:27:49.26\00:27:51.50 the garlic and garlic salt and your onion powder 00:27:51.53\00:27:57.01 and your parsley flakes and just mix that all together. 00:27:57.04\00:28:01.68 And then you're going to add your gluten flour. 00:28:01.71\00:28:06.05 And then you have two sources of good protein. 00:28:06.08\00:28:11.22 You have both your garbanzo beans 00:28:11.25\00:28:13.72 and you have your gluten flour. 00:28:13.76\00:28:16.49 So mix this up and it will come all together. 00:28:16.52\00:28:20.93 It will be almost like kneading in a little bowl. 00:28:20.96\00:28:24.33 And so it's like, almost like bread making here. 00:28:24.37\00:28:27.84 Going to just get everything in there 00:28:27.87\00:28:30.81 and make it like one round ball 00:28:30.84\00:28:33.38 and we need to put that on to a baking dish 00:28:33.41\00:28:38.91 because you're going to bake this as well. 00:28:38.95\00:28:41.88 Now, I had a cooking school 00:28:41.92\00:28:45.29 and there was a lady that came to my cooking school 00:28:45.32\00:28:48.22 and she had never tasted vegetarian food. 00:28:48.26\00:28:51.23 And once she tasted this chicken salad 00:28:51.26\00:28:53.40 she couldn't believe it. 00:28:53.43\00:28:54.76 And she came to me and she said, 00:28:54.83\00:28:56.93 "Oh, Mrs. Finley, this is wonderful. 00:28:56.97\00:29:00.87 Absolutely wonderful. 00:29:00.90\00:29:02.24 In fact it even beats my pork roast." 00:29:02.27\00:29:06.91 And I thought well, I am glad 00:29:06.94\00:29:09.44 I have something that beats pork roast 00:29:09.48\00:29:12.11 because of course, pork is the highest source 00:29:12.15\00:29:15.45 of cholesterol and fat. 00:29:15.48\00:29:18.05 So we want to make sure 00:29:18.09\00:29:19.65 that we are eating something really good. 00:29:19.69\00:29:21.49 And this chicken vegetarian-- chicken salad is really good. 00:29:21.52\00:29:25.49 So you see you have a nice, almost like, 00:29:25.53\00:29:28.83 it's just about like what you'd do 00:29:28.86\00:29:31.23 when you're kneading bread. 00:29:31.27\00:29:33.00 And so you knead this all and to think that you can 00:29:33.03\00:29:36.50 actually make your own vegetarian chicken salad. 00:29:36.54\00:29:41.34 You don't have to buy it out of a can. 00:29:41.38\00:29:43.68 You don't even have to buy it frozen, 00:29:43.71\00:29:45.81 you can make it yourself 00:29:45.85\00:29:47.22 out of gluten flour seasoning and garbanzo beans. 00:29:47.25\00:29:51.12 And then you put his ball now-- 00:29:51.15\00:29:52.62 I made two balls here for the recipe. 00:29:52.65\00:29:59.49 You can make one, flatten it out 00:29:59.53\00:30:01.70 and then put it into the oven and bake it 00:30:01.73\00:30:04.47 or you can take two balls like this, 00:30:04.50\00:30:08.14 split it up and make two out of there 00:30:08.17\00:30:12.77 and put it into the oven 00:30:12.81\00:30:14.68 and what you want to do is bake it off. 00:30:14.71\00:30:17.61 So you press it down and put it on a baking sheet 00:30:17.65\00:30:21.85 and you have two balls like this 00:30:21.88\00:30:25.69 and you going to bake that off 00:30:25.72\00:30:28.46 and then you have your chicken here. 00:30:28.49\00:30:32.06 Then you have your chicken here 00:30:32.09\00:30:34.10 that you're going to make your chicken salad with. 00:30:34.10\00:30:36.77 So we're gonna make some chicken salad 00:30:36.80\00:30:39.80 after Mark comes back and tells us some good reasons 00:30:39.83\00:30:42.84 why we should eat healthy during the holidays. 00:30:42.87\00:30:47.28 I really enjoy that chicken salad. 00:30:47.31\00:30:51.25 You know, I often take it in sandwiches 00:30:51.28\00:30:53.31 and often take it in my lunches. 00:30:53.35\00:30:56.35 And Tinnie makes it not only at the holidays 00:30:56.38\00:30:58.15 but she makes in other times especially for me 00:30:58.19\00:31:00.29 and its absolutely delicious. 00:31:00.32\00:31:02.36 We've been talking about seven principles 00:31:02.39\00:31:03.93 of how to have healthy holidays. 00:31:03.96\00:31:05.79 Health is not merely a matter of diet or eating, 00:31:05.83\00:31:08.56 it's a matter of every aspect of our lives. 00:31:08.60\00:31:11.83 To be in health means that we are physically well, 00:31:11.87\00:31:15.50 that we are mentally alert, that we are emotionally stable 00:31:15.54\00:31:19.57 and that we have a spiritual life 00:31:19.61\00:31:22.51 in our connection with God. 00:31:22.54\00:31:24.51 And so when we talk about the holidays in our family 00:31:24.55\00:31:26.92 we try to include all of the aspect of health. 00:31:26.95\00:31:30.75 And here in our Natural Lifestyle Cooking Workbook 00:31:30.79\00:31:35.16 I've been talking about seven principles 00:31:35.19\00:31:37.26 of how to make your holidays the most healthy. 00:31:37.29\00:31:41.36 And we've been looking at one principle 00:31:41.40\00:31:43.23 called Thanksgiving of gratitude. 00:31:43.26\00:31:45.60 When Hans Selye, the founder of stress research 00:31:45.63\00:31:50.64 and the great stress researcher from Canada talked about stress. 00:31:50.67\00:31:56.54 He said, "The key attitude 00:31:56.58\00:31:58.91 in reducing the stress in your life 00:31:58.95\00:32:01.02 is the attitude of gratitude." 00:32:01.05\00:32:03.12 So when we celebrate holidays in our home, 00:32:03.15\00:32:06.09 often at Thanksgiving we sit around the table 00:32:06.12\00:32:08.42 and I ask each of the children, grandchildren 00:32:08.46\00:32:12.59 share something that you are thankful for. 00:32:12.63\00:32:16.06 If we go to Christians 00:32:16.10\00:32:17.77 we're talking about on Christmas day, 00:32:17.80\00:32:20.34 the fact that not only do we give gifts to one another 00:32:20.37\00:32:24.37 but that Jesus is the greatest gift 00:32:24.41\00:32:27.08 and we talk about Thanksgiving for Him. 00:32:27.11\00:32:29.28 Birthdays, we try to look for experiences of things 00:32:29.31\00:32:32.11 that we're thankful for. 00:32:32.15\00:32:33.48 There are two physicians, physiologists, 00:32:33.52\00:32:36.18 Dr. Robert Emmons of the University California, 00:32:36.22\00:32:39.05 Davis and Dr. Michael McCullough, 00:32:39.09\00:32:40.79 at the University of Miami 00:32:40.82\00:32:42.52 and they did and amazing study on gratitude. 00:32:42.56\00:32:45.29 They took two groups of people. 00:32:45.33\00:32:47.13 The first group of people, they said "Write about 00:32:47.13\00:32:49.50 something you are thankful for." 00:32:49.53\00:32:51.43 The second group of people they said, 00:32:51.47\00:32:52.87 "Write about something that irritates you." 00:32:52.90\00:32:55.17 And over a 10 day period each day the first group 00:32:55.20\00:32:58.21 would write about something they were thankful for 00:32:58.24\00:32:59.77 and second group would write about 00:32:59.81\00:33:01.21 something that irritated them. 00:33:01.24\00:33:02.71 At the end of the 10 days this is what they discovered, 00:33:02.74\00:33:05.21 let me read to you. 00:33:05.25\00:33:07.08 It was actually 10 weeks. 00:33:07.12\00:33:08.75 And they said, "After 10 weeks, 00:33:08.78\00:33:10.22 those who wrote about gratitude were more optimistic 00:33:10.25\00:33:13.29 and felt better about their lives. 00:33:13.32\00:33:15.16 Surprisingly, they had fewer visits to the physicians. 00:33:15.19\00:33:20.00 They exercised more 00:33:20.03\00:33:21.73 than those who focused on sources of aggravation." 00:33:21.76\00:33:25.20 This remarkable research indicates 00:33:25.23\00:33:28.24 that if you develop a thankful sprit 00:33:28.27\00:33:31.17 and a grateful heart that the brain releases 00:33:31.21\00:33:35.74 positive chemical endorphins into the body 00:33:35.78\00:33:39.18 that help to reduce stress and promote health. 00:33:39.21\00:33:42.65 So on the holidays look for things to be thankful for 00:33:42.68\00:33:46.29 not things that you wish were better. 00:33:46.32\00:33:48.32 On the holidays, enjoy your family relationships. 00:33:48.36\00:33:51.93 On the holidays eat some of these great healthy foods 00:33:51.96\00:33:56.60 from Mrs. Finley's cookbook. 00:33:56.63\00:33:57.97 And you have another recipe for us. 00:33:58.00\00:33:59.37 Well, we are going to finish the chicken salad sandwiches. 00:33:59.40\00:34:02.90 Exactly. 00:34:02.94\00:34:04.54 So we're going to bake this off. 00:34:04.57\00:34:07.74 You remember, we just blended up 00:34:07.78\00:34:10.08 all those garbanzo beans 00:34:10.11\00:34:11.91 and mixed it with gluten flour and the seasoning. 00:34:11.95\00:34:14.15 So we're gonna bake this off 00:34:14.18\00:34:15.85 for about an hour at 350 degrees in the oven. 00:34:15.88\00:34:19.59 If you're ever in doubt about a temperature, 00:34:19.62\00:34:21.89 350 is a moderate oven so that's great. 00:34:21.92\00:34:25.36 And now, this one is already been baked. 00:34:25.39\00:34:27.83 This is one of those round balls that we just made 00:34:27.86\00:34:30.90 and we're going to just break this up 00:34:30.93\00:34:33.60 and put it into this grinder. 00:34:33.64\00:34:36.77 And we're gonna make our own chicken salad. 00:34:36.81\00:34:40.24 So we're going to put this into the grinder 00:34:40.28\00:34:42.98 and just--you could just tear them off 00:34:43.01\00:34:45.41 like that in pieces. 00:34:45.45\00:34:47.48 And this is just garbanzo beans, 00:34:47.52\00:34:50.39 gluten flour and seasonings. 00:34:50.42\00:34:52.65 Amazing how nutritious this can be and inexpensive. 00:34:52.69\00:34:56.56 If you want something 00:34:56.59\00:34:57.93 economical for the holidays as well 00:34:57.96\00:35:00.83 then you can have this good recipe. 00:35:00.86\00:35:03.37 So we're gonna blend this all up here 00:35:03.40\00:35:06.63 and break it up 00:35:06.67\00:35:09.04 and then we're going to put the cover on 00:35:09.07\00:35:11.64 and just click that in 00:35:11.67\00:35:15.31 and we're going to turn it on 00:35:15.34\00:35:18.38 and you'll have some ground up vegetarian chicken salad. 00:35:18.41\00:35:22.48 Let's do it just a little bit more. 00:35:34.96\00:35:37.23 Okay, see what you have. 00:35:44.31\00:35:46.74 You have some ground chicken here 00:35:46.78\00:35:50.05 just like we have here 00:35:50.08\00:35:52.35 and we have this chicken all ground up. 00:35:52.38\00:35:56.08 So I am gonna now take-- and you have another ball. 00:35:56.12\00:35:58.69 So this is nice because you can grind it 00:35:58.72\00:36:01.39 and you can put it in your freezer. 00:36:01.42\00:36:03.53 And actually have it whenever you want to have 00:36:03.56\00:36:08.00 special occasions maybe for evening meal, 00:36:08.03\00:36:12.20 just a sandwich or something. 00:36:12.23\00:36:13.97 And then I am going to add some chopped up celery 00:36:14.00\00:36:20.48 and then some vegenaise. 00:36:20.51\00:36:22.54 This is vegetarian plant based vegetarian mayonnaise. 00:36:22.58\00:36:27.25 And we're going to mix that together. 00:36:27.28\00:36:29.28 And you know what, you can make the holidays fun 00:36:29.32\00:36:32.22 because you can even make 00:36:32.25\00:36:33.59 special sandwiches for your guests. 00:36:33.62\00:36:36.19 You can take a piece of bread and make a Christmas tree. 00:36:36.22\00:36:41.10 Here's a wonderful little Christmas tree. 00:36:41.13\00:36:42.90 Just take a cookie cuter, like this, put your bread down 00:36:42.93\00:36:47.27 and cut your Christmas tree right out of your bread 00:36:47.30\00:36:51.61 just like we have here. 00:36:51.64\00:36:53.24 You cut that out and you have a nice Christmas tree. 00:36:53.27\00:36:57.71 So you just take Christmas tree bread 00:36:57.75\00:36:59.78 or bell or whatever you want 00:36:59.81\00:37:01.92 and then mix this with your soy mayonnaise and you celery. 00:37:01.95\00:37:07.19 We'll put a little more of that mayonnaise in here. 00:37:07.22\00:37:11.13 You can put--use as much or as little as you like. 00:37:11.16\00:37:14.23 You can use it to taste. 00:37:14.30\00:37:16.23 And we'll put that and then you just spread it on your bread 00:37:16.26\00:37:19.23 and you have a nice appetizer or you can use it 00:37:19.27\00:37:26.81 when you actually have a supper meal 00:37:26.84\00:37:29.54 or you want something substantial 00:37:29.58\00:37:33.11 but a little lighter than a full roast or something. 00:37:33.15\00:37:36.79 So this is a nice dish to have on hand. 00:37:36.82\00:37:42.42 In fact, you can just freeze this even. 00:37:42.46\00:37:45.49 You can put it into-- 00:37:45.53\00:37:46.86 once its ground up you can freeze it. 00:37:46.90\00:37:48.93 You can put it in your refrigerator 00:37:48.96\00:37:50.57 and keep it for quite sometime. 00:37:50.60\00:37:52.87 And so of course nothing will keep that we make forever 00:37:52.90\00:37:57.77 because you don' have any preservatives, 00:37:57.81\00:38:00.18 you only have of course natural ingredients in here. 00:38:00.21\00:38:04.41 So then you just spread this across your Christmas tree bread 00:38:04.45\00:38:09.85 and make yourself a sandwich. 00:38:09.88\00:38:12.52 And then here

00:43:30.94\00:43:32.27 He wanted them to have fresh air and sunshine. 00:43:32.31\00:43:35.04 Those are elements of health. 00:43:35.08\00:43:38.28 He gave them a plant based diet in Eden, 00:43:38.31\00:43:42.38 the diet that would give them the fuel to sustain their life 00:43:42.42\00:43:46.29 and to sustain their health. 00:43:46.32\00:43:48.46 And in that garden, Adam and Eve 00:43:48.49\00:43:50.89 had a positive loving relationship together. 00:43:50.93\00:43:55.00 That made all the difference. 00:43:55.03\00:43:56.43 We know today that attitudes 00:43:56.46\00:43:57.80 and relationships do make a difference. 00:43:57.83\00:43:59.80 And in that garden, Adam and Eve were to give-- 00:43:59.83\00:44:02.37 were to dress and keep the garden. 00:44:02.40\00:44:04.37 They got adequate exercise but most of all before sin, 00:44:04.41\00:44:10.01 Adam and Eve had a relationship with God. 00:44:10.05\00:44:12.51 And it was that relationship with god 00:44:12.55\00:44:14.38 that gave them an anchor in their lives 00:44:14.42\00:44:17.89 because love heals 00:44:17.92\00:44:20.86 and selfishness and hate destroys. 00:44:20.89\00:44:24.79 Teenie, you've just about got those 00:44:24.83\00:44:27.86 nut balls done, don't you? Yes. 00:44:27.93\00:44:30.40 These are wonderful fruit, 00:44:30.43\00:44:32.97 natural fruit dessert for the holidays. 00:44:33.00\00:44:36.14 So I hope that they will enjoy 00:44:36.17\00:44:38.41 making those and also eating them. 00:44:38.44\00:44:40.71 You know, the walnuts are really good as well. Yes. 00:44:40.74\00:44:43.04 Studies indicate Howard, 00:44:43.08\00:44:44.41 I was looking at a study from Howard recently 00:44:44.45\00:44:46.18 and it indicated that the walnuts provide 00:44:46.21\00:44:49.48 a reduced cardiovascular risk 00:44:49.52\00:44:52.42 if you eat walnuts three times a week or more. 00:44:52.45\00:44:55.22 And I know every time we sit down for breakfast 00:44:55.26\00:44:57.49 you always give me a handful of walnuts. Yes. 00:44:57.53\00:45:00.23 And I do want to feed you those walnuts 00:45:00.26\00:45:02.33 because I want you to live longer. 00:45:02.36\00:45:05.07 And you know one way that we can actually 00:45:05.10\00:45:07.37 even improve our health is by gratitude. 00:45:07.40\00:45:10.91 And so we're going to talk a little bit next about 00:45:10.94\00:45:13.94 another day that's important and that is Valentine's Day. 00:45:13.98\00:45:19.05 Valentine's Day is a very special day to express our love 00:45:19.08\00:45:23.15 and flowers make a difference. 00:45:23.18\00:45:25.42 Red Cross University joined with the American Floral Society 00:45:25.45\00:45:29.19 to study the impact of flowers on attitude. 00:45:29.22\00:45:33.56 They looked at 147 women that received flowers. 00:45:33.60\00:45:37.70 Now men, listen to this one. 00:45:37.73\00:45:40.50 These women had two predominant emotions, 00:45:40.54\00:45:44.54 excitement and happiness. 00:45:44.57\00:45:47.34 And as they got their flowers 00:45:47.38\00:45:49.84 their mental attitude improved. 00:45:49.88\00:45:52.18 And anytime you improve somebody's mental attitude 00:45:52.21\00:45:54.45 you improve their health as well. 00:45:54.48\00:45:57.22 So giving flowers, 00:45:57.25\00:45:58.59 expressing love on Valentine's Day 00:45:58.62\00:46:02.02 benefits both the giver and the receiver. 00:46:02.06\00:46:05.43 Right, Teenie? That's right, Mark. 00:46:05.46\00:46:08.26 Flowers are an important part but just giving a gift 00:46:08.30\00:46:12.37 is also very important. 00:46:12.40\00:46:14.50 In fact, on the holidays people can give 00:46:14.54\00:46:17.37 a wonderful loaf of bread. 00:46:17.41\00:46:19.21 Just wrap it in some homemade bread 00:46:19.24\00:46:21.94 in some foil with a nice bow 00:46:21.98\00:46:24.41 and that's a wonderful nutritious gift. 00:46:24.45\00:46:27.75 But in addition to that we might give flowers 00:46:27.78\00:46:31.05 but we can give other gifts as well. 00:46:31.09\00:46:32.75 I'd like to tell you and share with you 00:46:32.79\00:46:35.39 the first Valentine's gift that I got from Mark 00:46:35.42\00:46:39.66 who is then my boyfriend, not my husband. 00:46:39.69\00:46:43.03 And he gave me the first valentine's gift. 00:46:43.06\00:46:45.10 He gave me a lovely card.
