DTA's Healthy Hash (TM)


Brain-health essential ingredients:
olive oil
garlic
ginger
onions
carrots
celery
cilantro
parsley
protein

Put fresh, finely chopped garlic, ginger and onions (to taste) and a generous amount of oil with a little salt in a skillet or wok. Everything is low heat -- don't let the oil smoke. Saute until the garlic is brown.

Add chopped carrots, celery and protein and cover until protein is cooked (or until carrots are soft if the protein is pre-cooked); approximate cooking time 3-5 minutes.

For the last minute or two of cooking add finely chopped cilantro and parsley -- the more the better, think Cobb salad.

Serve over rice.

Substitute grape seed, coconut, apricot seed for olive oil. Other excellent veggies include peas, beans, kale, chard, fennel, etc. Scramble in an egg or two for an additional protein boost!
