That’s perfectly right! This awesome Nabe Cooking is just as Gluten-Free as you wanna make it! So, if you’ve been enchanted by the idea of vegan or macrobiotic cooking directly at your table, for 2 or company, and gluten-free is a criteria for you – look no more! Call it Nabe, Hooto, Shabu-Shabu, we’ll cover it all, and this class features completely vegan, macrobiotic and gluten-free organic ingredients!
How’s that possible you ask??? Simple. We’ll be cooking Tinkyada or Quinoa pasta, and if you prefer no flour choice at all, why, we’ll have freshly hulled brown rice just for you! Next, hmmm, seasoning. Okay, here’s the scoop: in Nabe dining, guess what! You season your own bowl! So, we’ll have 3 different levels of Macrobiotic Mitoku Shoyu for you, or the barley free San-J, and if that’s still not within your guidelines, well, there is Si Salt, Sea Salt, gomashio & shichimi. So, your meal will have a very delicious flavor.
And vegetables galore! They are truly the kingpin of this meal, plus a few garnishes, all within realm of gluten-free! Goodness, you wouldn’t want me to give away all the loveliness of this divine meal!
So, here’s what one of my clients told me about her Nabe experience: I made Nabe for my parents, and suddenly the room became so quiet, and we were all so relaxed as we were enjoying the meal! Yep, that’s the purpose and result of Nabe Cooking: it relaxes us deep within, creating a lovely warmth inside & out. And isn’t this exactly what each of us can use in our busy, busy lives. Relaxing, feeling warmth in this snowy, cold season. Anyone remember Simon & Garfinkle singing, slow down, you’re moving too fast!
Hope to see you! Early registration is greatly appreciated.

Nabe Cooking?? What could this be?
Just come to class — and then you will see!
Why in Macro-land this is the dish we all do,

Cooked at the table, easy for two or a party, just so you know.
This might remind you of Swiss Fondu — no need to beware,
Minus cheese and heavy oil, we enjoy this meal without a waistline care!
Winter’s the reason Nabe is my first cooking class.

Guaranteed to turn you into a Nabe fan after Saturday’s Nabe Demo!

Thanksgiving gatherings and memories with familiar tastes featured in healthy holiday recipes make this Macrobiotic Cooking Class special. You’ll be amazed how we’ve captured flavors of dishes you will easily remember from your own family Thanksgiving celebrations. Our participants’ taste-buds always recall their grandmother’s recipe, and when this feeling resonates throughout the room, it’s so gratifying! It’s a Wow! And now you, too, can recreate these memory foods for your family and friends in a much healthier version, continuing your own family traditions.
And the October date allows you plenty of time to practice dishes at home, call or email any questions you may have, as well as shop for your ingredients well before November 25 rolls around! Start up singing Turkey in the Straw… cause you’ll be serving our Tofurrr-key instead, and let the turkeys enjoy their Hootchie Kootchie Dance!
And remember, these recipes are developed on guidelines for practicing a macrobiotic diet, so very healthy ingredients are used, and there’s no sign of poultry, eggs, sugar, meat, nightshade veggies anywhere near this Pilgrim’s Thankful Feast!

singin’
Over the river and through the woods
To Grandfather’s house we go.
The horse knows the way
To carry the sleigh
Through white and drifted snow.
Over the river and through the woods
To have a first-rate play.
Hear the bells ring,
Ting-a-ling-ling!
Hurrah for Thanksgiving Day!
Over the river and through the woods,
Trot fast, my dapple gray!
Spring over the ground
Like a hunting hound,
For this is Thanksgiving Day.
Over the river and through the woods –
Now Grandmother’s cap I spy!
Hurrah for fun!
Is the pudding done?
Hurray for the pumpkin pie!

Here’s what’s really special. I am including the notebook of material I usually reserve for my private opening macrobiotic cooking class at a special group rate of $55 for this special evening class. Since I usually charge $60 per hour, that’s a savings to you of $95!

You’ll thank Lise for putting this class together on the recommendation of her acupuncturist!

Summertime, and Let’s Make Cookin’ Eazy. How’s that for a very Macrobiotic Cooking Class! And what makes these dishes great for summer you might be wondering! Rightfully so. It’s warm outside, and in too, and who wants to spend sunny delightful days inside cooking up a storm! Doesn’t fit, and you’re absolutely right-on! You’ll see some of these same types of recipes in Alisha Silverstone’s new book, The Kind Diet, and on her website too. Everyone is wanting to keep it so cool in the summer! You can too
So, this class features our favorite dishes, using less stove and prep time, yet giving the energy, relax, cool effect we all need for Summer’s heat. Each of these macrobiotic dishes suits the very organs we wish to nourish this time of year, yes you guessed right! Heart and small intestine. And these need and deserve our attention all the way into the late beautiful Indian summers so many of us enjoy at home and while traveling.
Here’s the macrobiotic cooking class menu, with a little more detail for your keen understanding! What’s the favorite dish served all summer long, and causing havoc for people over-indulging when fall-time arrives? You guessed it, Ice Cream. So that’s why we start this menu with a light Creamy Corn Fluff Soup, to please everyone’s palate, and enjoy that creamy texture. And if you get yourself the awesome Breville blender your soup will be as fluffy as ours!
For our grain dish we’ve chosen a Colorful Couscous Salad with a medley of veggies to further lighten the dish, creating a delightful sweet taste with roots & round vegetables, as well as lighter seasoning such as parsley & basil, picked from your own garden. We enjoy our pots growing treasures on our deck, and these sparkling our grain and veggie dishes all summer long! That bitter taste of parsley also nourishes our hearts! Enhance your dishes with parsley all summer!
For our protein choice, we combined real macro delicacy and old favorite taste, tho you won’t find any chicken here. But I think you could easily disguise it to some friends and family who haven’t tasted tofu yet, and get away with it in this Tofu Old-Fashioned No-Chick’n-in this Salad. A winning taste you’ll repeat all summer long! And tofu’s ease in digestibility , great for circulation, respiration & nervous functioning as well as excellent source for protein, calcium, iron and vitamins A & B according to Alex Jack and Michio Kushi in Healing Foods. Creates summer cooling! Look at this: tofu is even used as plasters throughout the East to bring down inflammation, swelling and bruises – even more effective than ice. So this dish is a must-have!
I’ve chosen the Arame – Orange – Watercress Salad for numerous reasons! As we perspire more in summer’s heat, we want to replace our minerals – voila, Arame with it’s iron & calcium & being so great for our bones & teeth, … benefitting our circulatory system.* It works on removing old dairy – help out the ice cream again. The orange cooling factor, sweet taste and lovely color fit perfectly, and the watercress according to Healing Foods is high in calcium, vitamins A & C, and other nutrients. It’s fiber aids digestion…is especially strengthening to the liver and gallbladder. Ever chew watercress? It’s just about the macdaddy of fiber. Remember we’re nurturing our heart and small intestine all summer long, right? So, strengthening the organs we pay greatest attention to in Spring — our liver/gallbladder pair — even into the Summer, benefits the next pay-attention-to-me, now-it’s-summer-heart-&-small-intestine-time still even more.
And, what’s summer without watermelon! Here’s a delightful surprise for a watermelon treat that goes a bit beyond just slicing it up, and passing it around! I mean, everyone in your world will know you’ve done something very special here! And what better way to cool off than this lovely refreshing Summertime favorite.
So we certainly hope to see you at one of our summertime macrobiotic cooking classes.
This is the first class for our series in 2010 we are offering at 2 different time slots, May 18 and May 22. Trying to honor your schedules, and requests for some guests who could not attend Saturday macrobiotic cooking classes!
