"Cole Slaw"
NOt sure if enlita has this "Dressing" but on the HCG diet plan and today I took 1C finely shredded cabbage. place into a ziplock sandwhich bag. Added 2 tsp. apple cider vinegar w/ 2 gtts of Stevia extract (I use BodyEcology's)...pourd it into the bag and tossed. Placed into bowl and added peppered & touch of salt. It was good.
Thank you, Dr. Scott!

Nama Shoyu contains wheat (though a small amount), and grains are avoided during the protocol.
I wonder if Nama Shoyu is allowed? Anyone know?

Thanks Jotales! That will be a great treat! My kale today was prepared almost the same (spice wise) and was quite tasty. That shot of lemon does the trick!
I also noticed in Dr. Cage's recipes that he mixes veggies for the side dish. Simeon's talks about not mixing and even eating the exact same thing for dinner that you ate for lunch.
I don't see why you could not mix things on the list, if your calorie count stays at/under 250 for each meal, but Simeon talks about THAT, too.
The most tiresome patients are those who start counting Calories and then come up with all manner of ingenious variations which they compile from their little books. When one has spent years of weary research trying to make a diet as attractive as possible without jeopardizing the loss of weight, culinary geniuses who are out to improve their unhappy lot are hard to take.
What's the word on this? I certainly don't want to sabotage my weight loss efforts (I'd really like to MAXIMIZE them), but I can see how this could get very uninteresting real quick AND harder to resist the yummy foods we are cooking for our families. (They are having PIZZA tonight-geeez!)
I think I am going to stick with straight Simeon protocol for one week, and then try some of the tasty recipes in Dr. Cage's book and see if there is a change in weight loss. I am losing good right now and want it to stay that way, but sure can see how variety would be nice!

Oh YUM!! Is that a legal protocol recipe? Today I had just plain 1 cup of shredded cabbage. It was good! But your recipe had me drooling on my keyboard!

Hi Dawn...yes its legal, though I admit I didn't double check before I ate it.
So this morning I did check:
According to Dr. Cages' "The Diet" Handout:
B: "Saccharin or Stevia may be used" and
"the juice of one lemon daily is allowed for all purposes. Salt, pepper,vinegar, mustard,garlic,sweet basil,parsley,thyme,majoram, etc. may be used for seasoning, BUT NO OIL,BUTTER, OR DRESSING(Salad)
