Tabaluga's 2.0

Just got some bills paid this afternoon and organising delivery of meds. Got lawnmower man coming on Wednesday

@StuF @TAB @Bunniekins

May go and grab some rest for now.

Have a nice afternoon everyone!

I ended up choking so that cut short my nap @SmilingGecko , well , was nearly a dirt-nap @StuF ba ha ha ha

hmm got aesophagal problems so

• should not eat anywhere close to lying down.
• should not eat peanuts, gut stuck in back throat then block wind pipe,
• should not eat beer nuts, the skin is built for blockages lol..silly boy ...

A liquid diet is the only solution @TAB lol

yes, about to try that @StuF lol ....

I've come close to choking many times. I was going to buy a choking device for my preparedness kit @TAB There are lots on the internet but found out made overseas with cheap shonky parts that pose a risk. Found the only one that is TGA approved so may buy that next disability payment. Its kind of a mask that I think is silicone that creates a firm seal around your nose and mouth and you pump the device and it creates suction and brings up whatever you are choking on. I guess it beats waiting for an ambo that are allready ramped up outside ED

oh gosh , started looking into that , @SmilingGecko think if I die, I die , no one would find me for months anyways lol

@TAB TBH I'm the same with the new med the doc put me on. I could barely function on it due to side effects and could not get anything done around the house it was that bad. I am trying other lifestyle changes and have discontinued the med and have allready lowered my BP by 30 points! The med was diabolical TAB I'm so glad I'm off it. It was a nightmare. Just had my cauliflower steak and it was really yummy. I've learned you can have maple syrup in your diet but if you stick to portion control and combine it with a fat it slows blood sugar uptake. Its something you don't do everyday but this was a recipe from a healer who knows about these things and I double checked for accuracy.

bits side tracked here @SmilingGecko trying to relax. just quickly, used oximeter couple times last few days and pulse ..normal, shows pattern. also like 15bpm lower, am out of fibrillation sometimes lately seems (?)

@SmilingGecko

Gecko my lovely, would you be able to share your cauliflower steak recipe? I would love to try it 🫂🤗

thanks xo

Hello @ENKELI sure honey here is the recipe ❤️

Mexican Street Cauliflower

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cauliflower
• Juice from ½ lime
• 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
• pinch chili powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• pinch sea salt (optional)

Creamy Avocado-Cilantro Sauce:

• 1/2 medium-sized avocado
• 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
• 5-6 cilantro leaves
• 1 tbsp water, more if needed
• ½ tsp sea salt (optional)

Directions:

Preheat your our oven to 220°C. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Remove the leaves and trim the stem of the cauliflower so that the cauliflower can sit flat. Slice cauliflower vertically into thick "steak" about 1 to 1.5 inches thick. Some florets will likely fall off, which can be roasted alongside the steaks. Arrange the cauliflower steak on the prepared baking sheet.

In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, maple syrup, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and ground cumin, and sea salt (if desired). Using a brush or your hands, coat the cauliflower steak and any loose florets evenly with the spice mixture.

Roast in the preheated oven for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and golden brown on the edges, flipping halfway through the cooking time to ensure even roasting.

While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the creamy avocado-cilantro sauce. In a blender or food processor, combine the avocado, lime juice, cilantro leaves, water, and sea salt (if desired). Blend until smooth and creamy, adding more water as needed to reach the desired consistency.

Once the cauliflower steak has finished roasting, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve the cauliflower steak immediately drizzled with the creamy avocado-cilantro sauce. Enjoy!
