I Don’t Know How I Could Live Without It!
What could possibly provoke this reaction? It’s really simple. Stabilized Rice Bran. Why?
Well, today I’m at a seminar. It started early (from me at least). I’m not good at early. So what can I have for breakfast? I want something fast, simple and healthy. The answer Stabilized Rice Bran.
I just whizzed up some guava juice and rice bran - there’s my delicious healthy breakfast. I simply included my usual Certified Organic Spirulina and Chlorella to give me sustained fullness.
Citrus & Yogurt Cake
Today I made a variation on my cake recipe. To make it real, here is a picture.
Using the leftover pulp from my morning juice (today’s was made from 4 oranges, 1 banana and a pear with stabilized rice bran added to make it satisfying and healthy) and inspired by a TV cooking show, which showed a citrus and yogurt cake, I added 3 desertspoons of greek style yogurt I had in the fridge, and two eggs, plus today I added a heaped desert spoonful of our lecithin, of course I used a commercial cake mix as a base, I omitted any butter or oil. I bake it in a loaf tin at a lower temp than recommended, but for a longer time.
It all came together very nicely, and tastes great. Of course it’s not a light fluffy cake, its quite dense and moist as you would imagine with all that fruit pulp.

TIP - Not just any Rice Bran will do. Nn Stabilized Rice Bran is special - find out why Here
I use one of those Magic Blenders with the juice attachment to make my juice and then use the mixer blade to wizz up the juice and Rice Bran.
SPECIAL TIP: Ever wondered what to do with the leftover fruit pulp? Sometimes I use it in a cake. I add it to a store bought cake mix, I omit the butter/margarine/oil component, but I do use the eggs per recipe and add some milk. I mix the ingredients thoroughly and use a loaf pan (buttered and floured inside) so the cake cooks evenly. I cook the cake in a slow oven for longer than the recipe time as it has so much moisture from the fruit pulp. Just keep an eye on it, when its risen and nice and brown on top (maybe after around 50 minutes) - it’s done.
