1 cup corn meal
2 qts. boiling water
1 tsp. salt
Moisten corn meal with a little cold water and stir into the salted
boiling water. Cook over slow fire, stirring often, for 45 minutes.
(Most of the corn meal sold today has been processed to cook much
faster, so follow the directions.) Pour the hot corn meal into a greased
loaf pan or glass baking dish. Let stand, uncovered, until cold and
firm. Cut into slices, dip in flour and fry in hot fat until browned.
Serve with syrup.
Kids will love to help you make this healthy snack since it's fun to spread the nut butter and sprinkle the chocolate chips. No corer in the kitchen drawer? Slice the apples into rounds first then use a small cookie cutter to remove the core from the center of each slice. Wrap sandwiches tightly and tuck them into lunchboxes, if you like.
Ingredients:
Method:
If you won't be eating these tasty treats right away, start by brushing the apples slices with lemon juice to keep them from turning brown.
Spread one side of half of the apple slices with peanut or almond butter then sprinkle with chocolate chips and granola. Top with remaining apple slices, pressing down gently to make the sandwiches. Transfer to napkins or plates and serve.

One of the beautiful things about Naked Nourishment is that it is
flexible — it can be modified to help you get out of it whatever you are
hoping to get, be it increased energy, better skin, relief from digestive
problems, a stronger immune system, or weight loss.
Most people who get Naked lose weight, but it is possible to eat only
Naked foods and not lose weight or even gain weight. So I have
developed this weight-loss plan to help you choose the right foods to
ensure that you lose the weight you need to lose while nourishing and
caring for your body as few other diets enable you to do.
This plan takes you day by day, meal by meal, so that you may follow it exactly if you choose. But if you’ve been with me for a while or you want to wean yourself from foods more slowly or if you want a slower weight
loss, then by all means feel free to mix it up. Be aware that any of the foods you choose in Get Naked Fast!and The Naked Zone are beneficial to your health and will not weigh you down. However, for effective weight loss, you should have some foods only in moderation. Take it easy on dips, sauces, and cheese substitutes made from nuts or nut butter, like Nacho Cheese Sauce. Also limit sweet foods like dates, coconut-milk ice creams and shakes, and desserts like Naked Cheesecake or Turtle Squares. Enjoy a Naked Bliss shake, but make it meal, not a snack or dessert. But there’s no limit to the amount of fresh greens and in-season fruit you can have!
Quick overview of Naked Nourishment
The essence of Naked Nourishment is removing the foods from your
diet that weigh you down. These foods weigh you down by causing
toxicity in your body, an allergic reaction you are not aware of, difficult
digestion, and/or water retention. They also fill you with calories that
don’t actually provide you with much nutrition. So step 1 of getting Naked is knowing these “no’s,” so I call them the Know No’s.
No dairy
No meat
No wheat
No caffeine
No alcohol
No processed sugar
So what do you eat instead? Step 2 of getting Naked is adding more
fresh, live produce into your diet. The more raw, plant-based food,
the better.
Cooked food (cooked over 145 degrees) is no longer alive and,
therefore, does not provide your body with as much nourishment as
food that is still alive. A dinner of a cheeseburger and fries provides
your body with a little protein, a lot of acid waste, and that’s about it.
A dinner of salad made from fresh leafy greens, shredded vegetables,
and light dressing gives you vitamins, minerals, and natural enzymes
that help your body digest the food. See the difference?
But there is so much more to a Naked diet than salad. When I first
started a raw diet, I didn’t know what to eat. But one day inspiration
hit when I realized I could combine my background as a chef with my
newfound knowledge of raw food, and the Naked diet was born.
On the Naked diet, you will prepare meals that are about 80% raw and 20% cooked. You also get substitutions for the foods you are giving up. For
example: sprouted-grain breads in place of regular bread; brown
rice or quinoa in place of white rice; gluten-free brown-rice pasta
in place of regular pasta; nut-based milks and cheeses in place of dairy products; coconut-milk ice cream instead of dairy ice cream; and so much more. To understand substitutions, go to Video Logs and watch the 5th
video called “Get Naked Fast — Naked Substitutions.”
The Naked diet not only increases the nutrition you ingest each day,
but improves your health by making your body more alkaline and less
acidic. This is explained in pages 7 through 9 of Get Naked Fast!and in
the 2nd video in Video Logs, “Get Naked Fast — The Balancing Act.”
This is just an overview. For a more thorough understanding of Naked
Nourishment, read my book Get Naked Fast! A Guide to Stripping
Away the Foods That Weigh You Down. You can also watch the 1st
video in Video Logs for an explanation of the book and my philosophy.
What to expect when you start getting Naked The blog and video series Farrowtone’s Naked Challenge is a daily diary of my brother Ryan’s experience getting Naked. My brother shares how he feels each day, which is so helpful to you as you go through the same feelings.
10-Day Weight-Loss Guide 3 At first you will miss your old vices, like hot coffee, wine with dinner, or potato chips. But about 3 days in, those cravings subside. You may also feel hungry more often throughout the day. That’s a
good sign — it’s your body adjusting to no longer being weighed down
with foods that are very slow to digest, like meat. Here’s Ryan’s experience.
A few times during this process, you will experience the side effects of
detoxification. You may feel like you’re coming down with a cold, you
may get a headache, or you may just be cranky. When you know what
it is and how to deal with it, it helps you to get through it. Here’s
Ryan’s experience on day 7. And again on day 10.
You will also find that you feel and look incredible! Like Ryan did on
day 13.
Getting ready to get Naked
Before you begin, you need to clean out and stock up.
Clean out.Get rid of all the Know No’s in your kitchen. Give away the
junk food, dairy, bread, crackers, and secret candy stash. Freeze your
meat. Hide your alcohol. Stock up. Before you head to the store, print the “Grocery Guide” listed under Member Downloads in The Naked Zone. This will show you all the options you have for all the elements of the diet, such as oils, nut milks, raw nuts, vegetables, and so on. When shopping for
produce, use the Member Download “The Four Seasons of Produce” to
ensure you are getting in-season produce for optimal nutrition, when
possible.
Read through the recipes for the first week of the diet and make a
grocery list with items such as sprouted-grain or brown-rice tortillas,
lettuce, avocados, Vegenaise, diced butternut squash, ghee, vegetable
broth, hummus, kale, and so on. Look through the Monthly Recipes
and jot down any of those recipes you might like to make, like Honey
Mustard Dressing or Chia Pudding.
You will need a lot of lemons to make green juice and to squeeze into
a large glass of water each morning. You will also want to stock up on
your favorite herbal teas for a nice, warm, hydrating finish to each day.
You will also need a juicer and a blender. They don’t have to be
anything fancy, but the faster the blender, the smoother the results.
Educate yourself. For an overview of what you can expect to
experience on this plan and answers to frequently asked questions, go
to Video Logs and watch the 4th video called “Get Naked Fast —
Getting Naked at work
All the Naked foods for your day can be packed. It just takes thinking
ahead and preparation. A soft-sided cooler is a great way to transport
your food for the day.
A thermos works great for transporting green juice, smoothies, or hot
soup. A jar or a large drink cup with a lid can also work for green juice.
Small Tupperware-type containers are great for hummus, salad dressing, nuts, almond butter, muesli, dip, or croutons. Medium Tupperwares work for wrap fillings, sliced vegetables, and salad. Or if you really like to pig
out on salad, you may need a large one. You’ll be amazed at how excited
you are that you have this fabulous lunch ready and waiting for you.
You may also want to bring your own tea bags from home to have
something hot to drink. If you are addicted to sipping soda to get you through your work day, sip on sparkling water or iced green or herbal tea instead. You can also keep raw almonds and dried fruit in your desk to snack on whenever you want.

Tips
This menu plan is designed to give versatility and flexibility. You can
follow it exactly or substitute. For example: if you really love a veggie-filled wrap with hummus, have that more often; if you don’t like curry,
make a different dish. It’s important that you enjoy what you’re
eating. It should taste good and make you feel good.
It is wise to acknowledge that a ratio of raw to cooked food of 80/20 is
the best for quickest results. That’s 80% raw, live food and 20%
cooked food. Increasing the live food will cause faster weight loss and
detoxification. Increasing your intake of cooked food and decreasing
raw foods will slow weight loss down. Please customize for your needs.
It can be challenging to follow the Naked plan when you are eating
with your family, but it can be done. It is hard to take a family used to
a Standard American Diet and try to make them eat vegan meals, so I
say don't make them. If they don't want to follow the plan with you,
then serve them whatever they normally eat and serve yourself either
the Naked meal in this plan or make yourself something simple like
leftover soup and/or a salad. Or you can have a little bit of what
they're having and fill most of your plate with raw vegetables. My point
is, don't threaten your commitment to your health by trying to drag
your family along with you. Eat Naked during the day and then
compromise a little for dinner. You will still be successful.
In health and love,

Prepare and combine ingredients in a bowl.
Toss lightly with a fork and enjoy!

My daughter came up with this one and likes it a great deal!
Slice okra in thin circles, toss with tamari and finely minced garlic.
Marinate a couple of hours.
Devour!
http://www.terawarner.com/blog/
Wash the okra well and place in a quart-sized mason jar. Combine remaining ingredients and pour over the okra, adding more water if necessary to cover the okra. The top of the liquid should be at least 1 inch below the top of the jar. Cover tightly and keep at room temperature for about 3-5 days before transferring to cold storage. Wait patiently for a few weeks for some yummy fermented okra!
Okra is also good just sliced and added to any salad. It is also quite pretty to slice it lengthwise and sprinkle with sea-salt.
