Broccoli and Quinoa Salad:

3 cups cooked quinoa- see method below 5 cups raw broccoli, cut into small florets and stems 2/3 cup raw nuts – cashews, almonds or pine nuts 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (usually 1 med. lemon) 1/4 cup almond milk (unsweetened) sliced avocado Method: Cook the quinoa by using: 2 cups water and 1 cup rinsed quinoa and bring to boil and then simmer for about 10 mins untill water is mostly absorbed. Then set aside with lid on for a wee bit to soften further and absorb remaining liquid. Stir and then allow to cool. Pour off any excess liquid. Bring a pot of water to boil. Add the broccoli and allow to turn bright green with just 1-2 mins of cooking time. Drain and then run cool water over to stop it from cooking further. Then set aside 3 cups of this cooked broccoli for use later. Now, combine remaining ingredients except the almond milk in a food processor and blend creating a finely blended mixture. Add the milk and mix it until combined but not too pureed. Combine this mixture with the remaining 3 cups of broccoli. Grab a plate and add toppings of sliced avocado combined with a generous heap of mixed greens. Try for 50% mixed greens and 50% quinoa salad.

Vegetable Quinoa Patties with side salad:

1 cup of dry quinoa, cooked in 2 cups water. 1 very large sweet potato, peeled, diced, steamed, mashed. 1 cup finely diced red onion 1/2 cup finely diced red pepper 1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro juice of one lime METHOD: In large mixing bowl, place cooked quinoa and mashed sweet potato. Saute onions and red pepper. Allow to cool and then add to mixing bowl. Add the remaining ingredients to bowl. Stir to combine them all. Heat a pan on medium and form mixture into patties. Gently turn into pan. Brown gently on both sides. Remove from heat and put directly onto dining plate. Repeat until you have enough for as many as you are serving. Handle with care as they break easily these patties.

Fish:

On an Ayahuasca diet you can once in a while add some fish. Maybe once per week is sufficient.

Salmon and Lemon Pesto:

6 fillets of wild salmon with skin on 2- 12″ long cedar plank soaked for 30-60 mins in water. 1 1/4 cups roughly chopped parsley juice of one lemon juice zest of 1 lemon 1/2 c raw nuts (pine, walnut or cashew or a combination). METHOD: Combine all the pesto ingredients in a food processor. Mix well. Pesto should not be runny. Rinse and then pat the salmon dry. Remove cedar plank from soaking tub and lightly pat surface dry. Place salmon on plank skin side down. Spread pesto generously on the surface of the fish. Place planked fish on pre-heated bbq grill with lid closed. Grill until it flakes and a butter knife inserted in center portion is hot when removed. This is about 10-20 mins depending on size and thickness of fish. Remove from grill and then from plank and allow to stand for a couple minutes. Serve with some cooked broccoli or a side salad. Vegetable based meals:

Roasted Seasonal Vegetables:

2 bunches radishes – halved 1 dozen brussel sprouts – halved 8-12 sunchokes, cut in 1″pcs golden beets – quartered carrots, sliced length wise in half or quarters depending on size sweet peppers – halved and seeded 1/2 acorn squash, seeded and diced into 1″ pcs METHOD: Preheat the oven to 350 farenheit. Begin washing and chopping your vegetables. Toss all chopped veggies. Place the vegetable mixture on two shallow roasting pans or trays and roast for 40-60 mins until just fork tender.

Marinated Kale and Roasted vegetables:

1 med sweet potato, 1/2″ – diced 1 large beet – 1/2″ diced 1 onion – 1/2″ diced 5 cups kale, ribs removed and chopped into bite sized pieces juice of 1 lime 1 avocado, pitted and diced METHOD: Preheat oven to 350 farenheit. Toss sweet potato and lay one end of a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Repeat with onions. Pour alongside the potatoes in a bit of pile so they cook slower that the rest. Do the same with the beetroots. You can mix them all together if you don’t mind the beetroots bleeding into everything else. Roast the veggies for 30 mins or until fork tender. While they are cooking, place lemon juice into a large deep bowl and add the remaining ingredients . Massage till the avocado is completely creamed through the greens and they have softened, ie approx 1-2 mins. Divide onto plates and top with roasted veggies.

Zucchini Noodles with Basil and Pesto:

Note: This recipe does contain some garlic and olive oil which is generally a no-no on an Ayahuasca diet. I have included this one despite these ingredients because I generally treat the Ayahuasca diet as an 80/20 type affair, ie sometimes I cheat a little. I find this OK in certain circumstances but you may not. Go with what you feel on this one. 2- 6 to 8 inch zucchinis 1 cup of basil leaves. 3 tbsp raw hemp hearts. 1/4 c pine nuts and or raw walnuts or cashews. 1/4c olive oil and bit for consistency. METHOD: If using spiral slicer, trim both ends of zucchini straight so as to line up evenly and flush between the blade. Begin winding and the spaghetti like noodles will start to come out. Set noodles aside. For the Pesto: Combine the basil, olive oil, nuts in a food processor and combine until and even consistency is achieved. Add a wee bit extra oil if needed for consistency. Toss the noodles with the pesto to avoid a watery residue as the zucchini loses it’s moisture.

Desserts:

Some of the previously mentioned desserts, noted as Smoothies above, could also be eaten as desserts.

Dragon Fruit, Pomegranate & Macadamia Fruit Salad:

4 cups fresh greens. 1 dragon fruit, skin removed and diced seeds of 1 fresh pomegranate 1/2 cup raw macadamia nuts 1 avocado, sliced. METHOD: Divide greens between 2 large bowls and top with remaining ingredients.

Banana and mango fruit salad:

2 bananas 1 mango METHOD: Chop up the banana and skin and chop the mango and mix in a bowl. Simple:)

If you have a regular blender you can pour into a pan and warm over low heat until warm enough to enjoy but not hot.
