I have been feeling like I need more omegas and more cabbage in my life these days. I started nibbling on flax seeds a few weeks ago and I haven't stopped. At first I was munching the seeds raw and then I started toasting them in a frying pan with sea salt and curry powder. This method is a much tastier snack and easier to munch. Toast the seeds until they start jumping, then they're done. Around this same time I started mashing up avocado, cabbage, and kale. I prefer red cabbage, but green is good too. Cabbage is super sweet and last night, in bed, I munched a quarter of one like an apple. The monounsaturated fat, oleic acid(omega-9), in the avocado makes this fruit the best thing in the world to eat with kale and cabbage or any other super greens. These omega 9's are a carotenoid's best friend. The absorption of the other nutrients in the greens is increased 200-400% when an avocado is added. I may have already written about this magical food relationship, but this is exciting news!
